March 21st, 6:00 pm "Living with The Land: Seasonal Sharings (The Gift of Tears)"
(Virtual)
During seasonal transitions like the equinox and solstice, NM IPL is planning to host virtual gatherings that help us return to and reflect upon the rhythms of the earth. In this first gathering we will uplift “The Gift of Tears” as intersections of spring equinox, lunar cycles, and world water day lead us to reflect on the presence and wisdom of sacred waters in us and beyond us. Join us for meditations and sharings led by Lisa Leahigh and Clara Sims.
