Hey all,
It was so great to be with you last night. To take Quentin's challenge to heart, how can we bring insight dialogue and the power of Downtown Dharma into our daily lives? I don't have the answer, but let's live that question together.
The practices I led to connect us to pause and relax/open were: "How are you" but with a 30 second pause before speaking and "What would you like to share with me" with the invitation to take a full breath after each sentence. You might explore this or the dedicated containers of listening and speaking with those around you. It may be awkward, but most things worth doing have their share of awkward. 😀
A few calls to action
Financial support: After leaving my federal job last year, I am a full time facilitator/ writer, and your support matters–a lot! If you enjoyed last night and weren't too sad you missed the Oscars, here's how you can give via Downtown Dharma venmo
Stay in touch
I have a Substack called Slow Mindfulness which is the best way to stay connected
My book Sometimes You Should Be Late - preorder here!
I coordinate a Mindful Sundays community group that meets 9-10am at Elle in Mt Pleasant (new location) WhatsApp group link
And you have my email, reach out & connect with me (and each other).
Thanks for being such a thoughtful and heartful bunch of humans!
