Hi GQ, Let me just add that 'healing' is not about 'curing' or fixing. Healing circles create space for each person to receive healing thoughts from others. As Paty said, the energy is there and the group focuses that energy with a positive intent...

After participating at the Healing Circle at the end of the Meditation for the Entrepreneurial Spirit class I felt so full of peace and joy that I am already organizing a small group of friends to have our own Healing Circle! We will be sending a...

Enjoyed reading about the healing circle. Would like to try this idea as a gift to a small group of residents at a local senior center. Can you share some more simple ideas to help me get started. Also does this sort of cirlcle really help those w...

I love all the wonderful responses you have received to your question. I can't resist adding my two cents. A couple of simple ideas to try: 1. Find or make 5 to 15 minutes once or twice per day. With "three children and a partner" and all the res...

Hello Writers! I'm hoping some of you will respond and tell me how you like to play in this little corner of the 29gifts site, or what you like most about it. I'm dangling toes in the water, considering a swim. Thanks.

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
First, because Cami invited me and she knows her stuff; to shift energy in my life.
Now, Giving has become a way of life, like being kinder to myself, and welcoming each new day with full consciousness.
What I'd most like to receive:
Internal permission to step outside my self-imposed limitations, release my brakes, be, do and give more.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
Cami and Mbali
About me:
Cami and I are developing a meditation curriculum to help the 29 Gifts Community raise its collective vibration. The Telecourses are now in full swing!

I began teaching meditation and energy healing over 25 years ago, after graduation from Psychic Horizons, seminary for Church of Natural Grace, in San Francisco, where I taught for 17 years.
I've maintained a private practice in Massage Therapy and rehabilitative bodywork since 1990. Over the years, my energy work and bodywork have gradually become a unified 'body of work' and an expression of my commitment to wellness and whole self healing.
My practice enables me to mentor in energy work, meditation and healing principles--empowering others to embrace and direct their lives from a spiritual perspective. I also provide in-depth energy readings and healings.
As a minister, I perform weddings and a wide variety of rituals for all life transitions. In 2004, I published "Practically Perfect Wedding and Commitment Ceremonies" to help couples and officiants produce meaningful and personal wedding ceremonies.

On a personal note, I'm late boomer, a sprung chicken, a personal growth junkie, a cultivator of heaven and earth. I stopped trying to grow up or grow old, and am just growing.
I am never bored and do not understand how some folks make an occupation of it. Seldom really down or angry for the same reason. Hey, I'm busy in here, and continually reaching inside for more insight, humor, bs, courage and poetry. I love friends, conversation, language and it's ironic origins, good stories, ocean, birds, opera, science, physics and what used to be known as metaphysics but now is so close to physics the scientists are embarrassed to not be a part of it.

Recycled Trash talk

For all the writing I do, I am an infrequent blogger. Like Cami's husband, Mark, I mostly keep quiet about my giving experiences. Now they happen spontaneously and are not often recognized as "a give" until after I have given. Sometimes I catch myself in the act, and recognize, with gratitude, hey this is a give!
I am now trying to blog more frequently, in the spirit community, and for sharing ideas and inspiration.

I moved to a small town in Northern California about 7 months ago, and live in… Continue

Story of Bob, my gift to you

At 10:37am on April 27th, 2008, Angel Stork said…
Since I am working at and on home today, and not likely to interact with anyone else, todays gift will be to me and to this giving community. I wish to share a story with you, one that has and continues to inspire me.
Manuela introduced me to her husband, Bob, more than 5 years ago. I got to know him a little over dinner on a few occasions. Bob had led an long career as a talented designer and renowned engineer, then had been in active retirement… Continue

Catching Up

I can't believe my 29 days are more than half gone. (am wondering if there's an analogy to the glass half empty, but since I feel more than half full, can't say) So much has happened to me, and in me and through me. Perhaps the most profound but subtle awareness is that I have begun to attract to myself things, experiences and comments or feedback from other people. While my attention was on giving to others, others 'snuck' into my camp and deposited little treasures, thank you cards with compel… Continue

lol. but digressing can be FUN!! and remembering. :)

thank you for the welcome. I've sort of been doing this for a while now, but didn't know of this site. I belong to a local group that tries to crochet afghans and shwals to donate to the nursing home at christmas. the wmn who started it, is in contact w/ the homes and gets the names of residents who never, or very rarely, have visitors. everyone deserves a xmas present and to be remembered.
i also occassionally use my work (self employed massage therapist) also for this. I will donate gift certificates. Once, i was driving to fl, and stopped at a gas station. went inside to pay and get food, and heard some of the employees talking. 1 was in great pain in her shoulders and crying. so i walked up, introduced myself (and what i was) and asked if i could rub her shoulders to maybe help her. they offered to pay me when i was done, i told them to just pass it forward (I was on vacation) and while i was paying, they fixed me a fried bologna sandwich on the house. yumm
ive handed out small xmas ornaments to folks who look stressed, made a bookmark to encourage a man in the illiterate program (a client was his reading teacher) who had developed cancer, recently helped w/ habitat for humanity, i grow my hair for locks of love (donated 3 times so far), etc. life is so much better when we find the positive and help others to find it also :D

Thanks for visiting! I, too, thought the Brits creative with the put-pocketing!
At 7:26am on August 29, 2009, Mary - 29Gifts Welcome Team Lead said…
Yes, and it really does help. I've been trying to fit in at least 15 minutes a day laying in the backyard and it's great for stress, too. I'm sharing this with my sister in law who's in a lot of stress over her son, who's slowly recovering from brain surgery. This site will be great for her.

Thank you!
Mary

It is all so amazing! I love this journey, especially re-connecting with you and most importantly staying connected to myself and our spirt source! God is so good! I am meditating, living fully and very healthy. I am giving so much away and it is wonderful! Love you and much joy to you, Emily

Re-uniting with you again Aunt Angel has been the biggest, bestest gift to me! You are an incoming breath of inspiration and I thank you deeply for the deep healing work... and all the lighter fluffy astral stuff too!
In love, in light and in breath.

I have begun the simple breathing technique and my gift for today was sharing this website with my best friend Lynn and walking her through it.
Blesssings to ALL! Love Emily
