I promised in my most recent post, Deep Resilience: A Need for Renewal, that I would come back when I had information about our YouTube channel. Here's a brief update on what we have so far. We originally published our videos on Zora, but that's not an option for us at the moment (or probably ever). So I've re-published them on YouTube. Those include:

• Black Stone Sanctuary Ambient Meditation #1 for Polytheist Monastics, Music Only

• Two Prayers to Nótt, Goddess of Night from Black Stone Sanctuary

• Our first Guided Grounding, Centering, and Shielding (GCS) Meditation

• The music only version of the GCS video. I call it a drone vibe session.

We also have several shorts. My favorite so far is "Nurturing Darkness and Shade," which is a multimedia version of a quote by Danica from Polytheistic Monasticism: Voices from Pagan Cloisters (PMVPC) that I mentioned in the Deep Resilience piece. I most likely won't write an update for every video created, but I did want to point you to the Sanctuary's home on YouTube.

I'll add more video offerings for use in worship, contemplation, and meditation as I can. Once I have the time and energy, I would love to host live sessions of some sort on the channel such as silent shrine gatherings or spoken prayer sessions.

Many Dark Blessings to you. ~ Trish Deneen
