June/July 2012

Here's to the Summer Sun at long last... I hope you enjoy your break from routine, get lots of time outdoors with friends and family, and I look forward to dancing with you again in the Fall, if not sooner.
DVD's of Syzygy 2011 are still available... $26 For 2012 we will likely do a photo CD instead, so if you'd like the real "action" get the 2011 DVD "while supplies last" (I was doing my best info-mercial voice there ; )
in motion,
Lynn

YEAH TEAM!! Thank you so much to all of the MoonDance Team members.
And to everyone who participated (on any team!) or made a donation.
We are still waiting for final numbers to come in (is this you??), and then we can release our total! And hopefully the overall 10 Days total, as well.
The Canadian dollar has such relative strength globally. We can easily make a significant impact for better or for worse. Let's consciously choose where our dollars go, and make it count for the better!

The Practice of WONDER
|
Wonder is being open to the beauty and mysteries of life. It is our soul's appreciation for what is precious and inspiring.
When we look at the grandeur of Nature, fully present, it can move us deeply. When we live reflectively, we delight in the signs and wonders that appear in our lives. We are alert to synchronicities that point us toward a decision or give us deeper insight into the Truth.
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the Mysterious. It is the Source of all true Art and Science." - Albert Einstein
The Practice of Wonder
I take time to contemplate beauty and nature.
I am inspired by life's mysteries.
I am present in the moment.
I am mindful of signs and wonders.
I appreciate life's synchronicities.
I believe that my life is meaningful.
I am thankful for the gift of Wonder.
Adapted from the Virtues Project.
