Do you have chronic pain?
I’ve gone through various phases with it.
During childhood, I had daily migraines.
(Turns out that’s because I have PTSD from early childhood trauma!)
I’ve had some pretty deep healing phases, including an 18 month ACL replacement that took two surgeries to figure out.
I don’t know if I know what your pain is like, but here’s what my pain was like:
Exhausting
Sharp
Aching
Distracting
Isolating
This meditation is not going to cure your chronic pain.
But it will change your relationship to it.
Pain is a message, not a punishment.
Pain is your nervous system telling your brain, “Something’s off. We need to do something different.”
In your wisdom, you get to decide what that something different is.
Maybe it’s paying the close attention to the pain that seems unbearable, that we will do anything to escape.
Give it a try.
Let me know how it goes.

Daily Meditation: Sunlight Meditation for Immunity
Y’all, we are in a PANDEMIC!
Here’s what I love about it:
The whole world, en masse, is being asked to heal.
You’ve seen the stories of dolphins and swans exploring the Venice canals for the first time.
Polluted parts of China are clearing up and seeing sunlight.
That’s what we’re going to bring in today.
This is a meditation for creating healing, protective energy.
If you’re stuck at home and realizing that your choices have not brought you closer to your heart, this will help.
If you’re stuck at home and feeling the effects of a virus ravaging your system, this will help.
If you’re out in the world helping each other, this will help.
This is the meditation I give my lightworkers who are walking into hospitals and orphanages and disaster zones, places where disease flourish.
Do the common sense things: wash your hands. Stay home. Touch each other’s souls, not each other’s hands.
Protect yourself while you’re doing it.
Be well, friends.
