Every moment is an opportunity to not succumb to fear and anger, but to remember our connection to each other.

Practicing with the Five Precepts invites us to consider “the other” as an extension of ourselves.

Learn more during “Remembering Each Other Always: The Precepts as Daily Practice” (online Fridays: Oct 10 - Nov 7) with Leslie Booker.

I bought my house....again!

Just to keep ya'll in the loop: after the most loving, intuitive, and organic intervention ever at my 50th birthday weekend last year - I decided to leave my relationship of 8 1/2 years. We continued to live together for another 14 months...1) because I am a saint, 2) because I do absolutely adore this woman, and 3) because we needed that time.

And yesterday, I became a solo homeowner!

And the "solo" part means I'm on the hook for the next 30 years, but I was definitely not alone on this journey that got me here. It was through the nurturing of amazing women of color like Amina AlTai: Executive Coach and that spent YEARS teaching me about abundance. And everyone I have mentored and have sat retreat with me over these many years, who've really felt the collective energy of Dana (generosity). We did it!

Dear Ones,

Sh*t is Bananas right now! I mean it always has been, but it's a straight up fruit salad right now! I've got some wise friends that I'm partnering with, and together, we're offering lots of opportunities for us to figure this out. Please check out my upcoming newsletter for more info. https://mailchi.mp/lesliebooker/activismjune

https://mailchi.mp/lesliebooker/5spiritualpowers-5855542There’s this great photo of the poet & activist Audre Lorde where she’s standing in front of a chalkboard, and written on it are these few words: “Women are powerful and dangerous.” And I think that what she was saying is that there is an inherent nature to be collective, patient, receptive.... All the qualities needed to know the fullness of the Dharma. And that can be dangerous to some, because it means that we know how to get free. Read more for link to course.

Babes, You Already Got What You Need!
But living in a glass half empty society, we might get caught in the narrative that we are not enough. That we need this or that to make us whole. And as a global community, this might feel co - signed by the universe!
The good news is that you already have the qualities that can be developed and strengthened into transformative powers. David and I are leading a 6 week course at NYI starting this Thursday! https://mailchi.mp/lesliebooker/5spiritualpowers

Listen, I know I can be a bit hyperbolic; this enthusiasm for all things is part of my charm! It's very rare that I get to do something that I've NEVER done before, and over the next couple of months - I get to do two new things!

1) Turns out, I'm kinda big in Canada! I'm so excited to go to Canada for the first time (!!!), and to lead the first retreat with True North Insight's Q***r Sangha

2) I get to talk about about the wrathful side of love...through art!
