Many thanks Alistair.

Beautiful

I have always felt that our zipping up hand gesture is a ' fountain' motion that comes from the core of our being and sprays out all the togetherness, love and connection that we have experienced during our session. A bit Tonglenlike.❤️🙏

Hi Alistair. Re your weekend retreat this month, as much as I would love to join, I could only do one day, ie Sunday. I wondered if you would consider sometime doing an online one day on meditation? I always have trouble stilling my mind, however hard I try, and a one day session would be a great help, perhaps with a dash of yoga thrown in?! Anita

Thanks to you Patti and to you Alistair for the video. I really like the idea of being friendly with our critical thoughts, to learn to have a different relationship with it and not just reject it. It's really motivating me to try do it, when I listen to your last sentence. In the end, they might behave themselves indeed !

What's behind the idea of "zipping up" at the end of meditation? In yoga, we tend to drum hands on the floor to reground after practice so I assume it's something similar, but I'm curious as to the "up" rather than the "down". Thanks! T x

Thanks, Alistair! So interesting. From a yoga perspective, during meditation the kundalini energy rises in the main nadis which could leave us feeling discombobulated unless subsequently earthed. I didn't think of the vayus but, yes, prana-vayu is the uprising wind which could also help us regain focus after meditation. Same aim, different means! Thanks again. 😊 T x

Oh wow 😍😍🙏

A theory called Sentic Cycles - Manfred Clynes mentions this also

@Alistair Appleton Thanks for the question Patti and the response Alistair.

Hi Tanja, I wouldn't worry about the Host Key - that is only if you are planning on hosting meetings. In this instance, you only need to have the app on your computer and have an account. Then you just click the link that comes when you book a class at Mindsprings. That should automatically take you to Zoom and open the class up for you!

Many thanks Alistair. I’d be really interested and will be sure to join. Look forward to it, best wishes Anita
