Tiny Shifts Foothills Unitarian

Rev. Christopher Watkins Lamb leads us in an 8-minute breathing meditation using Sarah Dan Jones's Meditation on Breathing. Rev. Christopher is Foothills Unitarian's Community Minister. Community ministers extend the reach of Unitarian Universalist ministry beyond the congregation. 

Rev. Elaine Aron-Tenbrink offers a guided meditation to cultivate self-compassion.
May this meditation be a reminder that when we are feeling stuck and brittle and can only see the world through a lens of scarcity - when we are most in need of a blessing - we have the capacity to offer a blessing to ourselves.
This meditation is adapted from the work of Dr. Kristin Neff, who is a scholar on the topic of self-compassion.
