When a family member gets sick or injured

This past weekend a beloved family member was seriously injured and is now under care in hospital.  What an opportunity for each family member to pitch in and rally round in support of the injured family member!



Such occasions may also bring up "family stuff" as anxiety rises.  How can we tip the scales toward action in support of healing of the injured one?  In the words of Master Zhi Chen Guo, "empty your heart, throw away selfishness and serve humanity unconditionally"  Sounds simple; in practice, not so easy.

Here is what I am finding helpful: I begin each day with a practice asking and offering forgiveness for any mistakes that have caused hurt or harm.  Not familiar with this practice?  Here is one to follow along, led by my mentor Dr. Peter Hudoba, leading teacher in the Soul Mind Body Centre Vancouver:

Forgiveness Practice

I also invite the soul of family members to sing the Love Peace and Harmony song with me.  Love, Peace and Harmony is playing 24/7 in the hospital room, helping all who are in the room, visitors and the staff alike to be calm and relaxed, enhancing the healing environment.

Listen and sing along to love peace harmony song
