Mindfulness for Healing from Violence and Homophobia

How can we heal from LGBTQ violence? Violence toward anyone is unacceptable, and LGBTQ violence and homophobia continue to occur at an alarming rate. My heart is hurting this week with the news of the act of terrorism toward members of the LGBTQ community in Orlando. Please take the time this week to go within and connect deeply with yourself, with your own heart.

We are all beings whose hearts are either open or attempting to open or beings whose hearts are closed to ourselves and others. Each of us longs for love and acceptance.

Take a moment to expand your attention to all beings on the Earth, and sense into this connection with all living beings. See if you can feel the energy that connects us together as one.

We are all beings whose hearts are either open or attempting to open or beings whose hearts are closed to ourselves and others. Beyond that, we are essentially the same. We all long for love and acceptance.

When people go within and connect with themselves, they realize they are connected to the universe and they are connected to all living things. –Armand Dimele

Whisper to yourself and to all living beings words of lovingkindness meditation and compassion, words of mercy and healing: May all beings dwell in an open heart. May all beings be free from suffering. May all beings be at peace. May all beings be healed.

Warmly,
Jen
