spicy friends and comrades unite! 🐾

A quickie to thank those who have joined us last week for these impromptu gatherings to Be in gentle community in these times. i appreciate you.

Thank you to those who reached out to send messages of support and sharing your yearnings to join. am keeping things spontaneous this week due to the whews of these times and appreciate for some this is zingy and spontaneous and low pressure cool which makes me happy, but also: if you like me are looking for ‘bones’ and some structure, i’m keeping a note of all the requests so hit reply to send me yours so i can consider this when planning. friends in far future timezones - more friendlier times have been noted - thank you!

Also appreciate those who have shared your experiences of these gatherings with me - it makes me to happy to hear it’s been such a rich and generative space for you to find a soft focus with gentle community encouragement.

Last week we’ve had LA (and a coincidental meeting of two magical neighbourhoods), Montreal, London, Portugal and Norway representing - thrilled to connect with you wherever you are in the world.
