Do you ever pause to appreciate and value the existence of light in your life? Without light we would not be able to see and experience the world around us. Light triggers the release of serotonin, the “happy” hormone, into our bodies. It regulates our biological clock, which affects our cognition, blood pressure, immune system, metabolism, and controls our sleep/wake cycle. It synchronizes our internal biological rhythms with the earth’s daily rotation.
Light is, in many traditions, a symbol of hope and spiritual enlightenment. Even in the dark night, the light of the shining stars fills us with a sense of awe, purpose and harmony.
In Portals, as August winds into September, we wanted to share with you a gift in appreciation for your support, something for you, to be with you; a 7-minute meditation about “Finding the Light”, which is the outgrowth of an international collaboration between Portals friends. Rob Eising wrote and recorded the music and the text, Christiane Heeke narrated, and Jerry Pike produced the video.
It is the result of a slow process of refinement and cooperation, and a work of love. We hope you will find a quiet time to try it out and experience what it causes in you.
We wish that it will bring some light into your life, and into the dark places of the world we live in.
Finding the Light
