In
a nutshell, meditation is indeed healing. We can
use it to heal ourselves, and we can also use it
to heal our planet. When we meditate together, the
results increase exponentially.
With that
in mind, our peace cell has reserved Sundays from
7:00 - 7:30 pm (In your own time zone) as a time
of meditation. Please join us, anytime during this
period, in our efforts to evoke a state of peace
of mind throughout the world. |

if you would like. Close your eyes and take three
slow, deep breaths. |

Put your attention
on your heart. See the heart filled with and surrounded
by a beautiful golden light. Feel the warmth, the
love, and the peace, that this light emits. Take three
slow, deep breaths. |

See the light grow
and expand to fill your whole body. Feel your body
relax, know that you are completely at peace. Take
three slow, deep breaths. |

breaths. |

When you are ready,
get centered back in your body. Start to move your
fingers and toes. Fold your hands together in the
prayer position, and bow your head. As you lift your
head, slowly open your eyes. Sit quietly for a few
moments before going back into activity. |
