Sacred Service 2020 Activations
Week 1 - Beginnings
Additional Activities - Minimum 30 minutes to an hour or more - have fun with this!
1. Listen - Please create a quiet and peaceful place to listen to this 13 minute guided meditation:
2. Attune - Feel in your body, your heart, and your whole being, what you most want to give to the Earth and to others at this time. What is it that you long to share?
3. Creative Play - Create a way to express this longing of your heart to share, so you can share it with us on Friday. Follow your creative flow, and find an avenue of expression that you enjoy. Perhaps it is a picture, a song, dance, poem, words, gestures, a nature sculpture, art or something else. Enjoy!!
4. Questions or Comments? If you have a question about the Sacred Service Activation Group Activities, please use the form at the bottom of this page.
Week 2 - Going Deeper
Additional Activities - Minimum 45 minutes to an hour or more - have fun with this!
1. Listen - to this 16 minute guided meditation, this one is best done outdoors if you have a quiet space in nature:
2. Feel - Holding in your heart and consciousness your deepest longing and love, allow yourself to become aware of any aspects of yourself that have not been visible to you before, that are ready to be seen, or heard or felt now.
This could be a new calling, a hidden pocket of pain that you were not able to process before, beliefs that you held that perhaps no longer fit you, inner wisdom that you previously were not aware of, or something else.
3. Create - an expression of this previously hidden aspect of yourself, or your feelings about this! Use any avenue of expression that resonates with you, including writing, drawing, song, drama, (you can record yourself!) art, and so forth. Enjoy!
We will share our creations in small groups, or in our Wednesday sharing time!
Week 3 - Nurturing the Seed
Additional Activities - Minimum 45 minutes to an hour or more - relax and enjoy!
1. Listen - to this 19 minute guided meditation, and listen from a different space than you have used for other meditations, or using a different body positioning in order to try something new.
2. Home play – create a physical representation of one of the supports or structures of light that your heart needs in your daily life. Have fun with this!
3. Opening new pathways - Use a different medium than you usually use to express yourself. For example if you find it easiest to express yourself in words, try singing, or drawing instead. If you find it easiest to express yourself in movement, try sitting quietly and experimenting with using a few words, or through a drawing or sculpture.
4. Transformation is a whole body experience - As we open to greater light, and as our lives change, we may need more rest or begin to feel fatigued. If you need some nourishment, support or rejuvenation, you can use this 9 minute Rejuvenation Support Meditation.
Week 4 - Stabilizing the Light
Additional Activities - Minimum 30 minutes to an hour or more - go deep and nurthure yourself.
1. Listen - to this 11 minute guided meditation, this one is best done outdoors if possible, and standing on the Earth.
2. Home play - create something that stabilizes spiritual light in your daily life. This could be something new for your altar, a creative piece of music, art, or movement, or a new and regular part of your daily routine.
3. Create your own mantra - find a word, phrase, that expresses something of who you know that you really are. Let yourself say, sing, or chant this mantra throughout your day. Allow this to come from your heart, rather than your mind. It's OK if it changes, through the week. Let yourself explore and enjoy this!
4. Share - bring this to our Wednesday or Friday group to share, or share with your Holding the Light Partner this week! How do you feel about sharing this, and discovering what others created?
Week 5 - Refinement and Depth
Additional Activities - Minimum one hour or more
1. Listen - find a quiet and peaceful place in nature to this 5 minute audio with guidance that was received for us this week.
2. Activation - surround yourself with stillness and quiet for this 18 minute guided meditation activation which will help you to open and go to a greater depth of moving forward with your service. If you are not ready for this, wait until you feel enough space within to take this next step.
3. Daily Alignment - Each day this week, take 6 minutes to do the Practice of Alignment to revitalize and nourish yourself with light.
4. Home Play - Give yourself a gift this week! Treat yourself like you would a beloved friend, and do something wonderful and nurturing for yourself. Please share with us in our meetings or on our email group!
Week 6 - Completing the Passage
A Closing Prayer
Additional Activities - Minimum 45 minutes or more
1. Guided Meditation - sit or lie down for this 12 minute guided meditation that will help to move you towards completion of the work of this group.
2. Sacred Service Guidance - this is a 3 minute audio of guidance received for our group.
3. Mashubi's sharing - a 3 minute audio with some closing thoughts.
4. Home Play - Take a moment to go back to your very first home play activity, when you were thinking about and feeling what you most wish to give to the Earth.
Sit with what you created in that first week, from your perspective right now. Let this percolate within you.
Where are you now? Has your heart's desire changed or evolved?
You can even let some time go by to think and feel about this.
Then, when ready, allow yourself to create, build, express, write, sing, chant, move, or otherwise express what you feel ready to offer the Earth right now.
Take some time with this.
When you finished, look over what you just did, and see how you are feeling about it.
Share this, during one of your times with your holding the light partner, or in our final meeting!
