Winter 2014 Overview



Our Winter season BEGINS!
Sunday January 19th from 11:15 - 12:30
At the Davis Memorial, on the common, Petersham MA

What a wonderful time of year to celebrate and practice mindfulness together. With winter upon us, cold, wind, sleet, and snowoutside - contrast sharply with warm fires, marshmallowy mugs of hot chocolate, and fragrant cups of cinnamon mulled cider, inside. Experiencing sensory extremes like these help to remind us how well our senses can help us anchor in the present moment when stormy emotions threaten to carry us away

Sitting Still Like A Frog

This season, we will be using Eline Snel's excellent book Sitting Still Like A Frog to guide us in our practice. Personal weather reports, attention muscle workouts, hitting pause on the conveyor belt of worry, the secret of the heart chamber, your inner movie theatre, and a safe place are just a few wonderful, practical, engaging exercises and meditations we will be experimenting with over the next nine weeks.

Come Join us as we 
explore, discover, and create!

Other publications we will be using to guide us

                 Under the Rose Apple Tree     Kindness: A Treasury of Buddhist Wisdom for Children and Parents (Little Light of Mine Series)   The Family Virtues Guide: Simple Ways to Bring Out the Best in Our Children and Ourselves
