Erie Chapman, healthcare visionary and the founder of The Journal of Sacred Work, created  a sanctuary here for caregivers. A fount of respite & renewal; a sacred space that invites lingering & encouragement to see with one’s heart coupled with a desire to "live love,not fear" (Chapman). 

 Together we have come to cherish beauty; reflect light, offer hospitality, compassion & acceptance for ourselves through others. We share a unique camaraderie that affirms love. We experience mutual vulnerability as we explore life’s deeper meaning in the revelation of truth. 

 As another work week winds to an end,  Sabbath offers us the gift of a pause from all the doing… (For those who are working the w/e your Sabbath can shift to another day.)

 Perhaps, you will gather at table to share a meal & conversation, exhausted yet ready to celebrate life by showing up.

 Find rest on the ebb and flow of your breath & just as waves crash upon a shore, release your worries, frustrations & anxieties, at least for this moment.

Let go of all the white noise, step outside your door & “stand under the stars.”

"Stand under the stars and say what you like to them. Praise them, question them, pray to them, and wish upon them. The universe will not answer. But it will have spoken." -Timothy Ferris
