In this episode we celebrate the shift in light and season, and honor the Fall Equinox. We start with a balancing alternate nostril breath practice and then contemplate what we are harvesting in our lives right now.
Sit With: New Moon Meditation
Sit With: Paying Attention
In this episode we continue to use Rick Rubin's book The Creative Act: A Way of Being to inquire about our creative life. We start with a simple body scan meditation, followed by a few questions to contemplate.
Sit With X Creativity
Sit With: A Wise and Wild Women's Meditation
Welcome to another episode of Sit With: A Meditation and Contemplation Podcast. Today's episode has been designed for women, though anyone is invited and encouraged to practice. It's a sneak peak to what will be offered and explored in this year's Wise and Wild Women's Retreat in Sayulita, Mexico. This meditation invites you to connect to and nourish the source of the feminine, the creative, and the intuitive. It's an offering of breathing sweetly, moving freely, and expressing powerfully. We spend some time connecting heart to womb and then rocking the pelvic bowl forward and back and around in circles, churning and stirring the feminine pot. This is a practice of awakening and owning the power of creativity and intuition, and expressing fiercely through dance, painting, writing, speech, or simply being present.
May this practice nourish, heal, and inspire ourselves, families, communities, and societies.

Sit With Meditation: On The Abundance In Each Moment
Breathe in and experience the fullness of the lungs, the expansion of the body, and the abundance that exists in each moment. May we think, speak, and act from this place of enough-ness and offer the practice up to the wellness and freedom for all beings.
