Last night I led a workshop on “The Still Small Voice Within: Exploring the Relationship between Meditation and Intuition” at the Smith Center for Healing and the Arts on U Street NW.

First of all the Smith Center is a wonderful place and does good work.  Thank you all for your donations that support their work.

It was fantastic to do this experience in an art gallery.

There is an interesting mindfulness exercise whereby you look around you and notice one thing you didn’t notice before.

And then another.  And another.

This can lead to a wonderful sense of presence.

With all the amazing art on the wall, it was incredibly rich as we all sat for a few moments after meditation to take in the imagery surrounding us.
