Like a pudgy, pink ghost rising from the sea, the full moon begins its ascent over Lake Michigan and the Kewaunee, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier.
‘Pink, pudgy ghost’? Heh, heh, heh…

Finally. It has been a long time coming…
Lying here in the tall grass
Where it’s so soft
Is this what it is to go home?
Into the Earth
Of worms and black smells
With a larch tree gathering sunlight
In the spring afternoon
And the gates of paradise open just enough
To let out
A flock of geese.
~ Tom Hennen
I felt my blood pressure rising after hitting the send button a few minutes ago on the “bad manners” post. I needed something soothing…so I flipped open Tom Hennen’s new book and voila…magic.

Another wonderful meditation by Tara Brach that I’d like to share with you:
Living with chronic blame or resentment is a trance that confines us to a limited fragment of what we are. This talk looks at the ways this trance is fueled and the process by which we release the armoring around our hearts.
Tara Brach writes:
Self-aggression, whether it’s low key blame or deep condemnation, prevents us from intimacy with others and discovering the truth and wholeness of our Being. This talk explores how we can release self-blame, and free ourselves to access our natural warmth and creativity in responding to our world.

We hear it all the time: Meditation can improve our creative thinking, our energy, stress levels and even our success. Prominent artists, businessmen and politicians cop to the practice. Would it work for you?
“It did to my mind what going to the gym did to my body — it made it both stronger and more flexible,” said Dr. Hedy Kober, a neuroscientist who who studies the effects of mindfulness meditation, which she has practiced for 10 years, at her lab at Yale University. She admitted during a TED Talk that she started meditating to deal with a break up, but found that it helped her handle stress and unpleasant feelings in all areas of her life.
Studies show that meditation is associated with improvement in a variety of psychological areas, including stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, eating disorders and cognitive function, among others. There’s also research to suggest that meditation can reduce blood pressure, pain response, stress hormone levels and even cellular health. But what does it actually do to the body?

Remember back in school when you had that teacher that no matter what, always seemed to pick on your work or behavior, causing you to complain relentlessly about the “injustice” you were experiencing to your family each day?
While we may no longer be in school, throughout our adult lives it’s inevitable that we’ll come across people who again test our patience in exactly the same way that teacher did back in our adolescence.
In this amusing 3-minute video, Buddhist nun Pema Chodron reveals the important role these “troublemakers” play in our lives, and what they’re really there to teach us. While understanding this may not detract from their frustrating behavior, it does help you look at things from a different perspective.
