TEA AND ZEN - THREADS
There are moments when words arise not from thought, but from presence when the silence speaks, and the heart listens. Welcome to Letters from the Threshold, a contemplative audio offering from Meditation Sans Frontieres a sanctuary of presence, remembrance, and the healing beauty of stillness, drawn from the well of lived experience, grief, love, and the sacred technologies of being.

May a small circle of safety find you, even if it is only the space of one breath.
May the night be gentle around you, and may something quiet inside remind you
that you are still here, still held by the same life that beats in every heart.
May you feel, even for a moment, the soft presence that has never abandoned you— the one that lives beneath fear, beneath grief, beneath the sound of a world that has forgotten itself.
May your ...
True transformation begins with a change of heart — a quiet surrender that lets go of long-held pain, fear, and protection.
As the nervous system softens and old energies fall away, understanding becomes embodied and the brain begins to rewire. Healing unfolds from within, shifting behavior from survival to love and presence.
In the quiet between heartbeats a whisper calls you home, you are not broken you are becoming. These thread...Settle into the quiet beneath the sternum, lengthen the breath, and rest in the spiritual heart as a gentle, timeless light arises.

I volunteer to sit with those who are dying—individuals without family or friends—at a few hospitals in Seattle. I offer a quiet, steady presence for those who might otherwise take their final steps alone.
By the time I am asked to attend, they are usually in comfort care and appear unconscious, yet over time I have become acutely aware that something in them still meets me. Beneath the surface of the body, we enter a subtle field ...
In this episode we explore how healing begins when we recognize our shared responsibility to one another and move beyond the wounds and the illusion of separateness that keep us in darkness.
Through simple, daily acts of kindness and growing compassion, we are invited to uncover the love that lives in every heart and to make each moment an opportunity to bring light, truth, and connection into the world.
In the quiet between heartb...No control. We have no control over outcomes of anything.
No matter how hard we try, life unfolds according to its own mysterious intelligence. We may hold an intention, a vision, or a heartfelt desire for how something might turn out, but the actual unfolding is never in our hands.
The river of life moves as it will. Our task is not to control its course, but to bring sincerity, clarity, and love to how we move within it. Intentio...
