homework:
As we began to explore on the retreat. Unprocessed loss and grief can lead to unconsciously numbing out in our lives and losing the sense of connection. Quite literally, this is related to the energetic function of the lungs and heart. We lose the experience of heartfelt exchange with reality. So to deepen our sense of connection we need to bring awareness to our numbness for it to begin to move. We all have significant loss personally, in our families, communities and world. In the deepest sense we have lost our connection to sacred world.
Over the next couple of weeks before we return, take time to contemplate the loss in your life. Make that personal loss the focus of your compassionate exchange practice.
Next time we gather as a group we would like you to be able to share in a few sentences what it is that you are working on, and would like help transforming. We will then bring the circle's themes together during our group compassionate exchange practice.
Closing:
Say good-bye and thank each other!
