I recently joined a course called 40 Days to Transformation, just a course online, a Zoom course. I really wasn’t sure what it was going to be, but it ended up really being a course about connecting to your heart and connecting to who you are as a person. It was all about meditation and just finding that center and really having a daily practice, which you know, I’ve done in the past, but this was just really, a really powerful course. And all the people in the course, I just felt very connected to everybody there, and I started this practice of doing daily meditation.
And it’s been really, really helpful to reduce anxiety, because this has been such an anxiety-producing year I think for all of us. It was such a creative, and it involved the arts, some of you may have heard of him, his name is Justin Michael Williams. Amazing artist, he’s a recording artist, but he’s also a meditation teacher, inspirational speaker, but he’s very involved in social justice work and a lot of other things. But just the way he brought music into it, we did a really cool session at the end where we wrote a song as a group. We wrote a song together, it was a creative, collaborative songwriting session and it only took about fifteen minutes for us to write a song together. Just really creative ways of using Zoom to connect with using the arts and using meditation and it was very inspiring. So that’s my story about creative connections during this time.
