Greetings:
How is your center? I have daily gentle yoga and gratitude practice that feels so important these days to help me ground.

I also return to a couple of resources that Reverend Peg introduced me to years ago. She told me about the webpage, Good News Network, which helps reinforce my hope.

She also shared about the Insight Timer app, where I continue to enjoy wonderful guided auditory meditations, calming ocean sounds and cello music, and spiritual poetry.

In RE, we offer mindful and embodied practices for children and youth to learn to quiet their minds and let go of distraction. We raise capacity through mental and emotional regulation which includes both healing and survival skills to help them navigate experiences and feelings such as stress and anxiety.

Practicing intentional focus and concentration in a gentle loving way can help all of us.

In gratitude,
Leilani Davenberry
