TC 480: Are You Having a Near Life Experience? Introduction to the 5 Invitations

Join us as our regulars introduce our next book for the CafeBookClub. The 5 Invitations, discovering what dealth can teach us about living fully.  A book about death?  Yes, and it has more inspiring stories about what truly matters as we live our day to day lives.  I am loving how I can see the similarities of embracing the hard things of life and showing how we can walk through difficult times.  So with COVID, I am seeing the many ways we can learn and be encouraged as we sit with someone who has learned first hand how to embrace when things die in our lives.  The author, Frank Ostaseski, is the co-founder of Zen Hospice Project with Steven Levine.  Steven, a poet and Buddist teacher, has been an influential figure in the growing revolution in the way we care for thoses who are dying.  So much care and learning to be in the present moment with deep listening for others and ourselves.  I look forward to all the wisdom and growth and we invite you join us on this journey.  In Flowerful Wisdom, I will be sharing about the power of a flower...the hydrangena, so much beauty and wisdom :)   The Transformation Cafe... a gentle place where we can embrace ourselves and others right where we are in the mist of change.
