Meditation Group

Although this blog is entitled Think Thankful, I have never written about the group that started this. I started a meditation/study group in June 2007 and named it Think Thankful. I wanted it to be about meditation but also about the Law of Attraction and living it and using it in your life.

Starting the group is one of those examples of just relaxing and not focusing at all on the "what-ifs" that plague all new endeavors. I mentioned it to my acupuncturist Megan who owns and runs Stonington Natural Health Center in Stonington, CT. I almost didn't even realize that I was doing it at the time but out it came. She immediately said she would sponsor the group so that we could have a beautiful new theater space in the basement of her building to use. She talks to clients about it, puts it in her emails and generally just promotes the group. I think within a week or two the schedule was set and the first meeting was planned! I enjoy running the group and I am proud of it and am happy to have my name attached to it.

Megan has done alot to encourage the growth of the group and in so doing has helped me to have something of my own. It can be easy to put yourself and your own interests on the back burner when you have young children. We also homeschool our children and so I don't have this idea that in a few years I'll have some set time to myself five days a week. Therefore the desire to pay attention to my own interests can't be put off a few years. I'm going to have children at home for at least the next 20 years!

Through Megan's support of the group my own support for my interests has strengthened and for that I Am Thankful!
