Geraldine DeLuca, living in the USA, and I, living in the UK compassionately shared and witnessed each others' experiences via email and Zoom during the coronovirus Lockdown. The guidelines we created as a framework for doing this were simple:

Meditate for five minutes or more.

Then while still meditating, do something visual and written about storylines/feelings

in response to this coronavirus for 5 minutes maximum, each day.

No rules except the time limit of 5 minutes making something each day.

And no masterpieces allowed, no intellectualisations, just feelings from the gut, just be yourself.

Do this with someone else, wherever they live:

just share your day's diary entries with each other, maybe as an email, blog, or video.

Pictured here are some entries  from this meditation and creative practice, emailed each day. Other images are from a collaboration with artist Rebecca Muller as we both navigated hip and knee surgery at the same time in 2022.  For more about this collaboration please see my blog here
