UUC Wednesday Meditation Group: Meditation for Feb 18th
Mark Lee
Hello Everyone,
This week we will conduct a Bone Breathing meditation. During the first half we will center and sit silently. The second half we will use the recorded Bone Breathing meditation as presented in audio recording by Gille Marin of the Chi Nei Tsang institute in San Francisco.
"The Bone Breathing Meditation - is a training to cultivate your ability to feel your bones. This is the first step in building a strong foundation for self-development. It starts the process of getting in touch with one's own internal organs.
When practiced, Bone Breathing will allow you to quiet and clarify your mind, relax better and improve the natural capacity of your body to heal. Originating in Taoist monasteries in the mountain ranges of China some immemorial time ago, the Bone Marrow Nei-Kung, the discipline from which the Bone Breathing formula has been extracted, was originally designed to fortify the blood, strengthen the bones and raise the flow of Chi or life-giving force".
- From the Chi Nei Tsang Institute website. (The Bone Dreaming Meditation - CD)
We will meet via Zoom from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm.

Quote of the Week:
"Meditation accepts us just as we are-in both our tantrums and our bad habits, in our love and commitments and happiness. It allows us to have a more flexible identity because we learn to accept ourselves and all of our human experience with more tenderness and openness. We learn to accept the present moment with an open heart. Every moment is incredibly unique and fresh, and when we drop into the moment, as meditation allows us to do, we learn how to truly taste this tender and mysterious life that we share together".
