Dear Friends,
We are about to start another month-long exploration of ways to support a daily meditation practice. I’m so honored to have you as part of this community.
The theme we will be exploring this month is infusing mindfulness with kindness as we go about daily life, with inspiration from the book Boundless Heart: The Buddha’s Path of Kindness, Compassion, Joy, and Equanimity, by Christina Feldman. I want to keep things light and inspiring this year, so expect just a short quote or poem to help you get your day started.
All the emails will be archived this blog that you’re reading now!

I have comments open for the newer posts, and I invite you to share your thoughts and feedback with the rest of us there. I also welcome any comments and reflections that you’d rather share with me personally by email.
I’m grateful for the guidance and support from Jeanne Corrigal, the Community Dharma Leader for the https://saskatooninsight.com/ and participant in the IMS Teacher Training Program. I also wish to acknowledge the inspiration and guidance I’ve received from other teachers on this path, especially Susie Harrington, Ayya Anandabodhi, and Adrianne Ross, and online teachers including Gloria Taraniya Ambrosia, Vincent Horn, and Gael Belden, and there are a host of teachers I haven’t yet met but who have touched me through the teachings they have made available online via dharmaseed.org, audiodharma.org, and other sources. (Any errors or misunderstandings are my own.)
So stay tuned for the first email/post tomorrow!
With warmest wishes,
Andrea Grzesina
