Spring Equinox Healing Meditation & Healing Circle Tonight!

Happy almost spring! Just a reminder that I’m offering a spring equinox ceremony tonight, which will include a Tarot/intuitive reading, an opening invocation and guided meditation, and healing to help with the transition from winter to spring. I will end around 6:45 so that everyone can take the time to go outside and experience the last sunset of winter.

Chakra books and more

Here are three of my favorite books on chakras — each with a different vibe. The Wheels of Life is a must for both newbies and those already familiar with subtle energy. It covers just about everything and has powerful meditations, which I’ll record for healing sessions for tiers 2&3. I use this book in teacher trainings. Angelus is a beautiful art book with illustrated yoga practices (most are on the advanced side), as well as poetry and exercises. The Ultimate Guide to Chakras takes...

Hi everyone,

I updated the video library to include a section on chakra-themed practices. I put a few in there already and will be adding to it throughout these next seven weeks. Scroll down to the bottom of the library to view the classes; link is www.mandigarrison.com/library, password is "patreonsangha". 

In the meantime, this guide I created will help you choose practices based on the chakra ener...

This is a good practice to do before we begin the chakra series next week.

Length: 1 hour

Every week for seven weeks, all of my classes will be themed to correspond with each chakra, beginning with the root and ending at the crown. (This includes Tower Hill classes as well.) As Patreon members, you’ll already ha...

Full moon/pre-equinox reading and insight

Hi everyone,

I just got out of a deep meditation trying to get some clarity around the energies at play right now. Mainly because I keep getting the guidance to surrender, yet that’s not always an easy or intuitive practice. Surrender is different than letting go, because letting go requires action. Setting the intention to be present is an action. Yet surrender is a state of flow with whatever is showing up in the moment — with every action and inaction as it occurs. One of the ins...
