Or more likely it is about loving and being loved (I am a Universalist, after all.)   We hope to see you in person! Our COVID policy … Continue reading All I Know, So Far

Attending the Earth

As climate change alters our relationship with the Earth, we can meet some of the challenges not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well.

Grandma’s Hands

Trauma takes up residence in our bodies. Healing also begins with our bodies. Remembering, or perhaps we could say, “re-member-ing” ourselves as individuals is not done in isolation.

Health of the Self

Left-handedness is no longer seen as sinister. Yet mental illness still carries the stigma of ‘moral failing’ and ‘character flaw.’  Let me share some of what I’ve learned along my own Mental Health journey. https://zoom.us/j/97989696520?pwd=ZG9NclFYQm9VV0NTb2VhNVM0R00xQT09 Meeting ID: 979 8969 6520 Passcode: 183183Phone: +1 929 205 6099 Order of Service: uubinghamton.org/order-of-service/ UUCB Zoom Social Hour We also host … Continue reading Health of the Self

The Blessing in the Breaking

Let us honor imperfections, flaws, quirks, mistakes, foibles, and failures – the cracks that let the light in. We can be better at recognizing the blessings hidden in the broken places of our lives. https://zoom.us/j/97989696520?pwd=ZG9NclFYQm9VV0NTb2VhNVM0R00xQT09 Meeting ID: 979 8969 6520 Passcode: 183183Phone: +1 929 205 6099 Order of Service: uubinghamton.org/order-of-service/ UUCB Zoom Social Hour We also host … Continue reading The Blessing in the Breaking
