At the break of dawn, nestled in the zen garden of Civana Wellness Resort & Spa—a space where Deepak Chopra also leads in spiritual exploration—I was honored to lead a meditation group. Gathered before me were individuals from all walks of life: doctors, couples, travelers, business owners, and entrepreneurs, each seeking a moment of connection.
As the sun ascended, the sky burst into a canvas of vibrant pinks, oranges, and purples, our collective breaths syncing with the rhythm of the awakening desert. The ground beneath us held stories of ancient Native American spiritual practices and ceremonies, a rich tapestry of history that wrapped around us, connecting us not only to each other but to the generations who had revered this land long before us.
"Open your heart to the sky," I encouraged, guiding the group to welcome the sun’s embrace, allowing its rays to illuminate our deepest being. In that moment, surrounded by the vast, glowing expanse, a profound stillness enveloped us. The session left us in a tranquil state of peace—a deep connection to the land, to ourselves, and to one another, all of it forged in the quiet of the morning.
This serene dawn in the desert served as a reminder of the transformative potential of a new day, the power of stillness, and the unifying nature of shared silence.
