Sidesteps

A meditation before bed - sleep protected by guardian angels.

It's not easy to love yourself. Drawing inspiration from Leviticus 19:18, let's do an exercise in Loving-kindness. First, a reflection on what makes you unique, great, and lovable. Second, a reaching outward on the ways in which loss and grief are signs of abiding love. Third, an acceptance that grudges and resentments stem from a lack of loving behavior.

This meditation can help you be more mindful of your mouth, what you say, and the words you choose to help and harm others and yourself.

Join me as I translate the Jewish ritual before bed to transform it into a meditative practice that anyone can use, by contemplating the unity of creation through images of angels, eagles wings, and a guiding hand. Put on your jammies, cuddle up under the covers, get comfy, and sleep well! (recorded April 16, 2023)

Pain can be extreme. What if you could distribute the acute pain in one part of your body to all around the whole body? Then, it might just be a tingle. Try it!

Good things are coming to you. Not to say there won't be troubles, too, but with this mantra and reflection you can focus on what's worth celebrating.

Put on your jammies, cuddle up under the covers, get comfy, and drift into realms of angels, eagle wings, and a guiding hand. Sleep well!

Discover that you already have enough! All the ingredients are there - within you, as building blocks for a great life. (from Exodus 30:35)
