August
 

It seems decidedly unfair that Summer goes so much quicker than Winter.
 I trust that you are enjoying these beautiful days...  I'm enjoying time with friends at the beach, playing music, and STILL recovering from Eagle Arts!  Phew!  Beginning to look forward to Fall to dance with everyone again.

Fall Schedule will be posted online July 31st.

in Summer bliss,  

 Lynn

Tranquil Moments 

 
"Sound can help people make shifts in perspective that normally takes 1-2 years of meditation... [it's] the
most powerful magic for enabling us to live extraordinary lives filled with peace, passion, health and a sense
of unity with the universe." Oncologist Mitchell L. Gaynor, M.D.

The Practice of DEVOTION
 

Devotion  
Peace Cranes


Devotion is commitment to something we care about deeply. 

It is a passionate focus on our life's purpose
It is wholehearted service to an endeavor that we love. 
Devotion to those we love is a promise kept in daily ways to care for one another. 

What is my "yes"?  What calls to me so strongly that I cannot resist,
knowing that it is truly mine to do?
When we are devoted, we give all we have and all that we are.

"Let the beauty we love be what we do.  There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground."
- Jalal'u'din Rumi


The Practice of Devotion

I discern the purpose to which life calls me.
I work from the fullness of my heart.
I do what I love and love what I do.
I keep faith with my commitments every day.
I say yes to my true calling.
I am willing to give my all to what I care about.
I am thankful for the gift of Devotion.
