#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-Six Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today we will talk about the second of the twelve senses – the sense of thought. The “thought sense” is what enables us to understand others who are speaking to us and expressing their thoughts through speech. Do you understand people easily or do you regularly misunderstand what people […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-Five Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today I watched five baby bunnies chasing each other around in the grass. To the outside observer it looked as if they were simply having fun but their play has serious underlying reasons. Animals in nature are programmed to play in different ways that reflect survival skills as they grow […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-Four Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today we will explore the first sense of Knowledge – ego. The sense of ego is the feeling and sense you have for yourself. Contemplate the ways that this sense can be explored and consider how this is a sense you may not have recognized before. It is […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-Three Inner Work Meditation (Heart): As part of our journey learning about the 12-senses we will talk today about why learning about them is important. Yesterday we learned about what the 12-senses were called and we thought a bit about what those terms mean to us. Today your inner work assignment is to […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-Two Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today we will start taking a journey through the 12-senses. There are many philosophers and teachers who have expanded upon the concept of the five basic senses. Our journey the next twelve days will be based on the speeches of Rudolf Steiner.  Rudolf Steiner identified 12 senses – seven […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy-One Inner Work Meditation (Heart): I was talking to my teenage daughter the other day about how beautiful I thought the wildflowers were on the lawn and how I wished I didn’t have to mow them down and she told me a story. When she was little a friend of hers would always […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Seventy Inner Work Meditation (Heart): As I am writing this now I am watching a tiny mole peek his eyes and nose up from the ground underneath our birdbath. I didn’t even know we had moles in our yard! And on today’s nature walk I found another surprise – some baby bunnies in the […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Sixty-Nine Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today as we celebrate Mother’s Day let’s take some time to think about what Mothering Energy is and how we can give and receive more of that in our lives. Everyone needs Mothering Energy in their life. Mothering Energy is nurturing, caring, understanding, accepting, and comforting. What other things […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Sixty-Eight Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today I managed to spot a Barred Owl among the branches of a tree trying to sleep. Owls most often will sleep during the day and hunt at night or during the early evening. People who like to stay up late are often called “night owls”. Although the […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Sixty-Seven Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today as I was looking in the creek for more catfish and watching the little minnows swim back and forth I suddenly noticed that if I stood at the right angle the trees and sun reflected in the creek and were making pretty watercolor pictures on the surface of […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Sixty-Six Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today I had a really hard time taking a photo I liked of a pile of mushrooms I saw. One would think it would not be such a big deal. However, I was really charmed by this little mushroom village and I really wanted to capture it on film. […]

#Earthschooling365: Day Sixty-Five Inner Work Meditation (Heart): Today I noticed how the animals wait until dusk to move into the neighborhood and explore. They stay away from people and houses during the day but feel very comfortable roaming at night. Even though both animals and people want to occupy the same space we seem to have […]
