For the past two weeks, I have been dwelling, literally, in an intensive on the power of community ~ and the gift of sustained connections.

A group of around 20 of us from all over the world meet on Zoom every Monday night in a Power of 8 group, supporting a dear friend, Lori Sunshine, and being supported in our giving. We've been doing this for 2.5 years - if you want to know more about the work of Lynne McTaggart, click here and see the JEDI section below.

I met Lori 40 years ago in Findhorn, and we then travelled together through India and Nepal. She is truly one of my soul sisters.
2 weeks ago, Lori crossed the big ocean and came to visit Findhorn, via two weeks in France with an extraordinary healer. Friends from all over came to Findhorn so we could reunite in flesh and blood - to eat, pray, and love. It feels like we've been lubricating our mycelium network!

I'm reminded again of the healing power of song, fire, ceremony, shared food, swims, tears, and laughter. I need this for my sustenance.

I know we all meet our need for belonging and connection in different ways. Leaning into the Core Movement Resource of Spatial Awareness I've been teaching lately, I offer these prompts to contemplate:

Do you recognise this need in you — for belonging, connection, and nourishment of soul and spirit? If so, how do you meet it? Through people? Places? Songs? What ingredients resource you when it's time to top up?

I hope something in this newsletter might be part of what nourishes you.

I'm grateful, too, for the sustained connection with those of you reading this. Many of you have shared dance floors with me over the decades — maybe that's one of the gifts of ageing!
