Saturdays: 9:30am to 11am Pacific time • February 21, March 7 • March 21

WHAT? This Lenten practice invites participants to give up habitual, dead thinking and replace it with organic (living) thought with Rudolf Steiner’s Control of Thought exercise. The first of the Six Basic (Protective) Exercises.

HOW? Zoom- meetings will be recorded.

Participants will learn the laws of organic thinking and how to apply them directly to the Control of Thought exercise, creating their own organic (metamorphic)

thinking exercise to be practiced for 5 minutes a day during lent.
Bring a notebook and a blue, green, red and yellow writing implement.

WHY? To actively strengthen the soul force of thinking. “As long as you lack the power to reel in your thoughts, as if on a string, you cannot expect that the inner world will open itself to you.” – Rudolf Steiner, Berlin, February 15, 1904

WHO? For anyone who wants to put forth the effort to actively evolve their thinking capacity with good will.FACILITATORS: MaryAnne Young and Sally Greenberg

of living with and loving the “so-called-dead”  

Hosted on Anthroposophy.Social

Next Meeting: Saturday, Feb. 7th, 2026

9:30 am Pacific, 12:30 Eastern, 16:30 UK (with time change), 1:30 CET (with time change)

The “Staying Connected” Death Cafe is facilitated by Sally Greenberg and Vivianne Sinclaire with Guests

The Emphasis of this month’s Cafe will be to take time to practice the meditations we have learned in previous sessions to cultivate the conditions for connecting with our beloveds. Come prepared to “hold” and share about one individual you know and love who has died to our earthly live.

We’ll  begin our meeting with a “Logic of the Heart” Practice to come to heart coherence and inner peace before we practice connecting with those we love who have died with our “memory bridge” meditation. 

All are welcome to join this meeting as part of a Series of Death Cafes as we enter the time of year when the spiritual world draws nearest to us, including those we know who have loved and crossed.

Together, we’ll Research, Practice and Share:

  • How our Love and Living Heart-felt Memories Provide a Threshold Bridge
  • The Nature of Our Connection with Those who have Died  
  • Clarity of Connection from a Purified Heart Space
  • What’s Needed to Be in Service to the World in Partnership with those on the Other Side.
  • Threshold Awareness and Practical Meditations to Be in Connection
  • Ongoing Support and Mutual Threshold Practices through the Holy Nights
