I have been enjoying the Mooji videos immensely and wanted to share this one with my friends at Lumigrate. What a joy to watch a whole room of people 'get it'!
Mooji is now my teacher on my path to realizing the dream embedded in this post (see link below "Sitting with Joy: Nothing Left to Lose) that was first made on the Virtual Teahouse, then updated for Finding Ground and now...here!
Here's the post! Sitting with Joy: Nothing Left to Lose [2]
Cheers to you!
I am a grandmother. I'm owned by a wolf/husky named Geronimo and we live in Central Oregon. I thrived in Western Colorado for 13 years--living in Hotchkiss and working for Hospice and Palliative Care of Western Colorado in the administrative offices in Grand Junction and helping to open the hospices in Montrose and Delta.
I have a MA in Religion, and 20 something years of hospice experience, 5 years in child advocacy and am now working with eldering.
I own a business called Finding Ground [3] and also host a multi-blogger site Virtual Teahouse. [4] Finding Ground provides spiritual companioning for those who are journeying through major life transitions. All I do is 'sit' and hold space. And show up. I do face to face sessions as well as long-distance via phone or skype sits.
Other than those facts, everything else is suspiciously, serendipitously, unscrupulously subjective.

I actually only read the piece that you wrote as I'm having video card problems that are to be fixed tomorrow so look forward to watching the video at that time -- it's like hearing half of a wonderful story and not knowing the rest of it! I'll have to look forward to it ... I was very happy to see you'd posted something because you bring such a refreshing element to Lumigrate and I feel it addresses the deeper needs on many people's minds right now. So thank you! ~~ Mardy
Live and Learn. Learn and Live Better! is my motto. I'm Mardy Ross, and I founded Lumigrate in 2008 after a career as an occupational therapist with a background in health education and environmental research program administration. Today I function as the desk clerk for short questions people have, as well as 'concierge' services offered for those who want a thorough exploration of their health history and direction to resources likely to progress their health according to their goals. Contact Us comes to me, so please do if you have questions or comments. Lumigrate is "Lighting the Path to Health and Well-Being" for increasing numbers of people. Follow us on social networking sites such as: Twitter: http://twitter.com/lumigrate [6] and Facebook. (There is my personal page and several Lumigrate pages. For those interested in "groovy" local education and networking for those uniquely talented LumiGRATE experts located in my own back yard, "LumiGRATE Groove of the Grand Valley" is a Facebook page to join. (Many who have joined are beyond our area but like to see the Groovy information! We not only have FUN, we are learning about other providers we can be referring patients to and 'wearing a groove' to each other's doors -- or websites/home offices!) By covering some of the things we do, including case examples, it reinforces the concepts at Lumigrate.com as well as making YOU feel that you're part of a community. Which you ARE at Lumigrate!
And thank you, Mardy, for your consistent practice of presence. I surely wish we could sit and have a non-virtual cup of tea together...but for now, for now, we'll just have to write and laugh as if we were in the same temporal zone!

That is so sweet of you to say, Beth. Thank you -- I had a friend in Colorado Springs which used to like to have friends over to grab coffee and go for a walk up the hillsides around her house with a cup of coffee -- the 'coffee walk' and naturally many people meet for coffee or tea and conversation. So I very much value your having the multi-blogger site 'The Virtual Teahouse', where people can go with a cup of tea and find mind-provoking/heart-provoking stories and particularly interesting visuals -- the 'fire circle' photo on the link you have provided here / above is outstanding.
So here's to writing and laughing in our own temporal zones! I'm going to go get a cup of something now!
