The particular meditation we will engage is remarkably safe biologically and does not require special dietary preparation. In general, the "clearer" your body and energy are, the more aligned and able it will be to fully experience the energy that is opened by the forms of deep meditation we will engage. Sacred Garden community recommends eating lightly the evening before and day of any practice. Some traditional diets or “dietas” are more about preparing in subtle mental or spiritual ways rather than about specific physical contraindications.<p style="box-sizing:border-box;width:800px;margin:0px;font-family:Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.5px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;padding:10px 0px 0px;color:rgb(111, 114, 135);line-height:1.5rem">So grateful for the opportunity to sit with such a loving and active group.

The particular meditation we will engage is remarkably safe biologically and does not require special dietary preparation. In general, the "clearer" your body and energy are, the more aligned and able it will be to fully experience the energy that is opened by the forms of deep meditation we will engage. Sacred Garden community recommends eating lightly the evening before and day of any practice. Some traditional diets or “dietas” are more about preparing in subtle mental or spiritual ways rather than about specific physical contraindications.<p style="box-sizing:border-box;width:800px;margin:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.5px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration-thickness:initial;padding:10px 0px 0px;line-height:1.5rem;max-width:100%">So grateful for the opportunity to sit with such a loving and active group. Let the time we spend together bring us closer to that which is real, to the divine, to opening us to healing, so we may move and guide from a place that is healing, healed and loving.<p style="box-sizing:border-box;width:800px;margin:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.5px;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration-thickness:initial;padding:10px 0px 0px;line-height:1.5rem;max-width:100%">Please direct any questions at the facilitator for this sit to Sunil (humansunil<a href="mailto:Sheryllynn2010@gmail.com">@gmail.com</a>)
