Unitarian Universalist Association This week's Monday Meditation is "Winter Solstice Meditation" by Christine C. Robinson .

It begins:

"We join our hearts and minds together in a time of meditation or prayer; spoken, silent, sung, and shared. It is a precious time, and all precious times want preparation, so I invite you to settle yourself in a straight posture, both feet grounded on the floor, to take a deep breath, hold it until you notice your need to breathe out, and relax."
