This is a discussion group for 29Givers in the San Francisco Bay Area, so we can discuss ways to connect and give locally.
You rock! Thanks for sharing my app. I agree, it would be fun to have a 29Days app.
I thought folks might want to know about some service related legislation being introduced, The GIVE Act in the House and the Serve America Act.
Service Nation is asking that you call your Representative today and ask them to support the GIVE Act.
Great! I look forward to reading about what you learn this time ... we can learn from you too...
I read the writings you have linked on this post; both make good points. Yes, slowing down and giving time is sometimes one of the hardest things to do…
Yesterday I started my 4th cycle of the 29 Day Giving Challenge. Each time I do the challenge, I learn something new.
Cycle 1: I learned that compassion is the hardest gift to give.

Gratitude Journal for iPhone
I thought folks who have iPhones might want to know about theGratitude Journal iPhone application. Isn't it cute?
I think it would be cool if there was a 29 Gifts iPhone application.

Time is a Gift: Reflections on My 29th Day of the Giving Challenge
Cross-posted from Have Fun * Do Good
I am an extremely busy person who makes a lot of lists. Work lists. Personal lists. Urgent, Not Urgent, Important, Not Important Lists. And I have a lot of ideas, which get added to the lists, and make them longer.
Time is never on my side.
Those of you who are not time addicts like myself might not understand… Continue

- Thanks so much for putting Cami on your show! I loved your interview.
We are so proud of her and the work she has created for us here, I was number 434 and am on the welcoming committee as the official welcomer of International women because I was doing it, I wanted to give to all of them, personal notes and welcomes to the US website! I was able to go out to California from Atlanta and meet with her after being in the challenge 2 rounds, maybe 3, it was an awesome coincidence! But totally due to the gifts coming to me because the gifts I am putting out. This stuff really works, and my life is wonderful, due to Cami. Thanks for the wonderful interview I will be forwarding the link to many of my friends that have not joined yet!

Tantra Bensko said… - Ah, I see you will be at the meet up, won't you, then? Well, do you have an interest in Tantra Yoga DVD's? If it's not a form of yoga you like, feel free to let me know. But I produce them, and can give you one if you like. It's called Tantra With the World, very long and thorough, about all the various aspects of living a Tantric life, relating to the world as a whole in a Tantric way, doing the exercises, the breathing, mantras, stretches, meditations, and such. I have two new ones coming out to complete the series very soon. The whole series is called Tantric Lucidity. You can see some of my more casual little videos at http://www.YouTube.com/LucidTantra. They talk about things like Tantra and physics, Tantra and activism, the Om Ah Hum mantra, alternate nostril breathing, and such. Normally, I don't give them away because of the expense, but in this case, it feels right. Namaste.

Something about 29 gifts felt right when first I heard of the idea. It's not something I can really explain, But it was an internal feeling that connected with where I am in life right now. However, the reason I thought about joining wasn't because…

Hi Erin
I am sorry to hear that. And Yes what if you were to start with letting go the judgement about yourself!
Thanks for your vulnerability in sharing this
Mbali
Mbali, this is such a pertinent post for me right now. I'm struggling with forgiveness and resentments I hold against someone right now. I know, rationally, that it is hurting me far more than it will ever hurt her... I can't let go yet. I'm working…

Happy belated Birthday Kate!! I've missed reading about your gives so I'm happy to hear you will be blogging again. You always have such warm insight. Hugs!
It's great to hear things are moving in a healing direction for you and your mom. I'm excited to hear more about your reading with Mbali. Take good care of YOU and I send you a big virtual hug ;-)
Yeah, I hear you, sister. I'm feeling similarly, in case you have not read my latest post. Cry it out and laugh it out. Stay busy and stay focused on giving. We'll get through this! ;-)
