Join the community through meditation
Hello Meditators of South Florida. Mark your calendars! On Saturday, July 23rd, from 5:00pm-6:00pm, there will be a public meditation (a Meditation Mob) near downtown West Palm Beach. It will take place on the plaza in CityPlace – in front of the fountains. Please tell everyone you know who would like to experience the benefits of meditation.
The intention of this movement, called MedMob, is to expose the world to meditation and create a global community of people from all walks of life coming together to create and expand positivity.
MedMob started in Austin, in January, with 60 people meditating at the Texas State Capitol and now it is a world-wide movement with monthly meditations, some cities having over 250 people.

Be Kind to Your Mother |
Remember the kindness of your mother?
Here is Christine Carpenter’s perspective of the conference after taking my MBSR Yoga class.
This is very touching how this conference affects people.
Love After Love
The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
-Derek Walcott
