Revs. Melody Brauninger and Erica Joy West guide a group of committed students through year 1 of Gentle Healing who want to make consistent, gentle progress toward genuine peace, joy, and love. This group meets weekly on Fridays from 10am-12pm ET/8-10am MT. All members are committed to specific assignments and practices between group meetings.
Homework for this week:
- Homework Assignment A: Workbook lessons 87-93 including Regina’s tips for those lessons. Practice daily awareness-watching-awareness meditation for 10 – 15 minutes each day.
- Homework Assignment B: First, contemplate your spiritual aspiration. Next, watch either “The Secret” or “The MetaPhysical Secret – The Law of Attraction.” Listen for teachings in this video that will help you realize/achieve your spiritual aspiration. Take notes on the things that will help you realize/achieve your spiritual aspiration. (You may be able to find on of these movies on YouTube. You may find better quality with a movie download provider.)
- Homework Assignment C: Listen to RDA teaching, “The Secret Holy Spirit Style,” parts 1 & 2. They are audio #3 at: https://awakening-together.org/interact/regina-dawn-akers/oldies-classics/
- Homework Assignment D: Create a visualization plan that promotes your spiritual aspiration.
Additional instructions: Be sure to do assignments, B, C and D in that order. To create your visualization plan, simply ask within and then write what feels right for you now. The idea is that your plan will take you beyond where you are now. However, it should be written in present tense as if you are already there.
For example, if you feel in your heart that it would be really good if you could learn to pause and look at your mind before responding to others, your plan might include, “I always pause and feel for what to say before I respond to another person.” Or, if you would like to be more peaceful than you are now, you might write, “I embrace peace in every moment and I am not affected by circumstances that arise.” Your plan should probably include about 3 – 8 visualization statements. Each statement may have further clarification or stand on its own.
