I'm thrilled I was able to join you all during last night's healing meditation.
And yes, Connie, calming the Monkey Mind becomes a challenge sometimes.
I was able to be outside while sitting in silence and when I opened my eyes, this is what I saw.

I added one of my Fur Babies, Bob the Cat, to the Mediation. He's been away since last Thursday.
Here is a picture of him taken last December. 

I'm pretty sure he isn't coming home again.

I used Emotion Freedom Technique before quietening my mind using proxy tapping for, "Even though I have reason to be in this Healing Circle, I totally and completely love and accept myself unconditionally." After tapping several rounds and repeating the set up phrase several times, I found that shutting down the chatter in my mind was easier to do.

Thanks to all who participated.
Namaste'
