Hello, Community,
I hope you are feeling resourced and connected.. We had a joyous practice this morning with Katja, Tuppett, Penny, Debbie, and Liz.  We reflected on what it means to metabolize grief vs. experiencing grief.  We talked about moving with and through grief with our bodies, emotions, and minds.  

There is no practice tomorrow/Sunday.  Our next practice is Tuesday 8 a.m. – 8:30 a.m. PT.    What?  on Tuesday?

Hola comunidad,
Espero que te sientas con recursos y conectado. Tuvimos una práctica alegre esta mañana con Katja, Tuppett, Penny, Debbie y Liz.  Reflexionamos sobre lo que significa metabolizar el duelo versus experimentarlo.  Hablamos de avanzar con y a través del duelo con nuestros cuerpos, emociones y mentes. 

No hay práctica mañana/domingo.  Nuestra próxima práctica es el martes de 8 a. m. a 8:30 a. m., hora del Pacífico.    ¿Qué?  el martes?   

****CAMBIO DE HORARIO: COMIENZA ESTA SEMANA ****
Debido al inicio del año académico de otoño, cambiaremos nuestro horario a partir del martes. 
Así que para la próxima semana: martes, jueves, sábado y domingo.

******. ¿CÓMO FUNCIONA ESTO?****
Como dice Liz, "ven como eres".  Todos son bienvenidos. Abierto y apto para todos. No es necesario reservar. Venga. Llegue tarde, salga temprano.  La familia peluda y la familia humana son bienvenidas. 

Haz clic en este enlace para ir a la clase: https://pitzer.zoom.us/j/513664738

Ofrezco esto con espíritu de generosidad.  Al final del mes, considera ofrecer una acción basada en lo que recibiste de las sesiones.  Si tiene tiempo y capacidad, considere una de las siguientes opciones relacionadas con el fomento de una seguridad genuina para todos: 

* Donación a personas en Gaza para alimentos, agua potable y tratamiento médico: Middle Eastern Children Alliance (MECA). 

* Donar a nuestro socio comunitario Movimiento Interreligioso para la Integridad Humana o compartir sobre la huelga de hambre en el Golden State Anexo y el Centro Mesa Verde y/o escribir al gobernador de California Newsom sobre la huelga de hambre.

* Haga una donación a nuestro socio comunitario Women for Genuine Security o comparta este artículo sobre la reciente agresión sexual de mujeres de Okinawa por parte de soldados estadounidenses y/o escriba a la vicepresidenta y candidata presidencial Kamala Harris sobre el militarismo y la rendición de cuentas de Estados Unidos. 

* Tome una acción de su propia elección para apoyar una seguridad genuina (frente al militarismo). .  

Se aceptan como alternativas poemas, dibujos, fotografías y una carta.  Al final del mes, envíelo a kathyyep@yahoo.com o a K. Yep, PO Box 1313 Monterey Park CA 91754. 

Nadie será rechazado por falta de fondos.

Que nuestra práctica de qì gōng sea para el beneficio de todos, para que todos los seres no causen daño y estén libres de daño.  Que imaginemos y creemos las condiciones del qì, donde todos puedan vivir desde un lugar de abundancia e interconexión.

Que estés bien
Kathy
