1. Devotions:
Today Living Earth talks about a website called "The Nature of Cities", about cities as ecological spaces. It looks like a good resource!
2. Beingness:
For Lent I am finding creative ways to make space for Being in Nature. Today: Take a slow tour of the back garden, name the plants (and clean up the plastic bins and other debris).
3. Earth Action:
Each day I am taking an action for the Earth - Today I'm setting an agenda for our next Earthcare Meeting, and brainstorming some plans for action.
4. Ongo journal:.jpeg)
I'm going back through this book by Catherine Madden and Jesse Weiss Chu (2022), focussing on the solo practices. I'm on week 7 (still), and Day 2 is Sharing Gratitude.
"Gratitude ... is the thread that connects us in a deep relationship, simultaneously physical and spiritual, as our bodies are fed and spirit nourished by the sense of belonging, which is the most vital of foods."
Gratitude practice: Reflect on anything that is happening or has happened recently that stimulates a sense of gratitude. Name how it made me feel and name the Needs that are nourished. Then share this gratitude in-person with someone who contributed to my life.
- Cuddling with A in the hot tub: Time to share stories and talk about feelings. (Connection, hearing, touch) - "I feel such love when we get to cuddle and talk like this."
5. Home projects:
This month, I intend to do the work to finish our home projects, because creating our home sanctuary is a priority, and finishing projects (one by one) satisfies my need for completion, integrity, and order.
My goals this week:
- Get rid of the table saw
- Paint the posts
- Seal the new fence
- Paint the bedroom window
