Wednesday night I was invited to bring sound therapy to our Tao meditation group. During the darkly lit and perceptible stillness of our opening moments, I played the bowls and rainstick to an appreciative, receptive audience of spiritual seekers and healers. After reading and discussing our book, (this week it was The Power of the Heart by Baptist de Pape and next week back to the Tao Te Ching), and the section on gratitude, we turned down the lights again and I was invited to close out our meditation group with more ethereal music.

We all left renewed, relaxed and mostly, thankful.
