Mason Bee Sunday

The month of March is filled with a riot of color and activity. It’s a fresh, youthful, quick-flowing month - the start of something new. In March I do the work; I tend and nurture my family, my garden, and my projects. March is a month for being a physical creature; for feeling all sensations, and being really present in my body - playful and young-in-spirit.

In the winter I dreamed dreams and made plans, but as spring approaches, it's time to get into action.

Agenda 

1. Devotions

2. Beingness 

3. Earth Action

4. Put my bee houses up

5. Release the Mason bees!

Vigor

Vigor and enthusiasm for life are components of effectiveness, happiness, and hope.

Today I set an intention to lean in to life with vigor and enthusiasm by giving attention to self-care and healthy habits, lighting a fire with visualization and curiosity, and taking one step at a time, because lethargy and overwhelm threaten to derail me everyday and if I delay, I’m not acting in the now. 

Agenda:

1. Devotions
2. Beingness 

3. Earth Action

4. Read "Perspective"

5. New narrative for vigor

6. Creative visualization

7. Writing themes and passion flow plan

Overwhelm

2. Beingness 

3. Earth Action

4. Read "The Book of Doing and Being"

5. Beginner's mind meditation for worry

6. Teaching brainstorm

Unity with Winter Rain

We have a paradoxical relationship with rain. Rain gives us life - we can't survive without it, but it's so inconvenient; we like to complain about it, and try to avoid being caught out in it. We sometimes find it dismal and depressing. (I certainly got tired of rain, as a young person who had to walk to school in it EVERY DAY; and not just gentle showers, but cold, sideways driving rain that penetrated every part of you...)

Agenda:

1. Ongo journal

2. Beingness 

3. Earth Action

4. Explore rain

5. Write a mission haiku

6. Proaction and reciprocity plans
