Holiday Greetings from Maia

“Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach….

Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely…

To display the lantern of soul in shadowy times like these — to be fierce and to show mercy toward others, both – are acts of immense bravery and greatest necessity….Struggling souls catch light from other souls who are fully lit and willing to show it. If you would help to calm the tumult, this is one of the strongest things you can do.”

~ Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes 

As this year draws to a close, I am so grateful for your support of The Jizo Chronicles. There is so much going on in our world these days… and your bright light is needed now more than ever. I take great comfort in knowing we are on this journey together, each of us contributing what we can toward a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.

I hope you consider giving yourself a gift during this holiday season! Here are two ideas for you:

• Visit the Liberated Life Project Marketplace over on my ‘other’ website and see which one of the creations or services there speaks to your heart… maybe an intuitive reading to help shine some light on your direction, or maybe a set of hand-made prayer flags to bless your home… and so much more.
• If you want to commit to establishing or deepening your meditation practice in the new year, please consider the new three-month program that Katya Lesher and I are offering: Waking Up to Your Life. We are accepting applications for the inaugural version of this program until January 5 (the program starts on February 1).

Wishing you and your loved ones a deeply peaceful and nourishing end-of-the-year!

gassho,

Maia
