Back From Baltimore
I promised to blog upon my return from the Spirit Heals Conference in Baltimore last weekend. What an amazing weekend it was! It was held at Bon Secours Spiritual Retreat Center and given by Meredith Young-Sowers (Executive Director of the Stillpoint Foundation). The setting was amazing with a beautiful labrynith to walk (while dodging the dozens of acorns falling from the huge oak trees surrounding it) and a peaceful meditation garden with a soothing waterfall. The group assembled there consisted of both men and women - old and young - all spiritual seekers looking to share with like-minded folks. Meredith's presentation was flawless and offered many tools for healing and the prevention of disease. Her staff was kind and helpful, and the healing ceremony on Sunday was truly that - healing. I was blessed to spend a little time with Meredith and we certainly are spiritual sisters - there are many similarities both in the human realm as well as the spiritual one. I know we'll meet again. She invited me to speak to the audience - my brief comments drew many kind words and I've already heard from some of the people that I met there.
Many of Meredith's comments stuck with me, but my favorite is "Love Because You Can." Remember that - it's powerful. If you can love without expectations or limits, your life will be filled with joy and growth.
I traveled up from Central Virginia with my friend, Susan (in her nice new Prius) and we met her sister, Agnes, from New York there. We all found support and absored a tremendous amount of "positive" energy during our visit. As I've known for a long time, the trick is to bring that peace of mind back to your everyday life - so far, so good. I wish you all peace of mind.
