Dear Friends,
HAPPY EASTER. Life, death, ascension and rebirth have been with me all day. Feeling the beautiful essence of spring here in the Hudson Valley and gratitude for the teachings of Jesus…whatever your faith, this is a potent time to appreciate this avatar of LOVE and SERVICE.

In honor of Earth Day tomorrow I will invite us to sit for our usual Tuesday Coming Home meditation with the Earth in our hearts. We will share stories of the Earth’s beauty and bounty and then sit in deep meditation with her—grounding, listening, attuning, honoring. It will be special.
Coming Home Meditation is all levels and open to sincere practitioners of all stripes. We meet on ZOOM every Tuesday at 12-1pm EDT and it’s by donation. No pre-registration is necessary - just come!
A friend and regular Coming Home attendee, Charlie, let me know about an earth-centered event he is co-hosting tomorrow on ZOOM from 1-3pm EDT - right after my meditation. It’s a Collective Presencing experience. I highly encourage you to check it out. I know it will be special because Charlie and Mariandrea are gifted space holders and deep feelers…I wish I could be there.
On Tuesday April 22nd, at 1 pm EDT / 10 am PDT / 6 pm BST, we are offering a 2-hour special Collective Presencing session for Earth.
To celebrate her beauty and abundance, to feel and express our gratitude, our grief, our longing, our belonging. We invite you to bring a token representing your relationship to land, whatever you feel called to …a shell, a rock, flowers, fruits, a candle, a poem. And ask you to please make an offering to Earth to participate in this session.
Donations will be collected here https://opencollective.com/collpres/projects/landing and 100% of it will go tohttps://earthjurisprudence.africa/
Alternatively, we encourage you to donate to a project or organisation that is caring for Earth which is local to you, or to offer an act of love, such as cleaning a beach or planting a tree. You choose what feels right for you.

In honor of Earth,
~Marianne, Linda, Mariandrea, and Charlie
