True Love: A Practice for Awakening the Heart
Each year at Reflections, we study a book together. And in 2009, we have selected True Love: A Practice for Awakening the Heart by Thich Nhat Hanh. I have always enjoyed his books, each is a precious meditation on the gift of mindfulness.
Awakening the heart is a deep practice. Our heart chakras acts as our first connection outward to the world around us and for many of us, this connection has been wounded. And so we harden our hearts while at the same time we ponder why others seem so far away. Never imagining that we are the ones who have drifted slowly away from true intimacy and deep compassion.
As is our usual method, we will slow down to study this little book by spending a week on each of the 16 chapters. Starting on Sunday, February 1st, we will read chapter 1 every day for a week. (The schedule is below the cut.)
Join the Systeri of Reflections and begin your practice of True Love.

So anything you post afterwards will go the way of the dodo bird .... mkay?
The Upgrade is Today
The upgrade will begin today, Monday Oct 18 at 5 pm. You will be able to access the site throughout most of the evening till 8 pm. At around 8, I will take down the web site so I can switch in the new version. This should take less than an hour. My plan is to have the site back online by 9 pm. If there is a problem, I will notify you via email and I will switch back to the old version.
Remember, do not post anything to the website (events, comments, forum entries, etc.) between 5 pm and 9 pm or it will be lost during the conversion process.
Thanks and wish me luck,
Amber … i.e. Katrina in uber Geek mode
