THE YEAR OF 2011
AUGUST
3 - We met at Kathy Mow’s
home with Frances St. Claire. Frances helps people discover and befriend
their inner child, become more self-realized, live more mindfully, practice meditation more effectively. With her extensive
experience in India with great masters
and gurus, she has become a source of infinite wisdom for those who are her followers. She was a gift to our group.
JULY 27 - We met at the BPL for our meditation experience. Following
a chi qigong warm up we listen to a healing CD by Geneele Crump.
JULY 20 - We postponed our trip to the Hermitage for later as there were
not enough of us able to go again this time. Kathy Mow led us in a meditation after a discussion of the plans we need to make
for the future of the MMM group. It seems that the road trips are becoming difficult to do with so many of us busy throughout
the year.
