C-19: Sending Light Meditation

One of the hard parts about sheltering in place is not seeing other people. Another hard part is not knowing when we will see friends, families, neighbors, acquaintances in real life. Will it be weeks, months, a year? Will we still be connected?

Today, I sat with this tender grief and ended up meditating while playing the song Sending You Light by Melanie DeMore on repeat. I meditated on the sense of sending light to love ones, to those who are struggling, to folks who were even casual acquaintances, and to those I don’t know across the earth who are facing the storm of the COVID-19 pandemic.
