For many, these are strange days. It’s hard to get grounded. Many experience a struggle to feel empowered and make an impact. Maybe you know this one?

In late November 2024, I was a mess emotionally, physically, and spiritually, in the face of political upheaval and world unrest. Then, I caught sight of the phrase “fuel the light.” I don’t know where. Maybe a social media post?

Immediately, though, it sparked an answer to a question I’d been sitting with: 

“What can I do? What action can I take, in a world gone mad, that actually fits for me? How might I create a loving ripple in a manner that respects who I am right now?”

When I saw the phrase, I raced to my desk to jot down some notes for a possible path forward.

Thus, was birthed the “Fuel the Light” movement. 

The idea is for each participant to consciously connect with the light within themselves — always beginning where they are in the moment. If/when a point of light abundance is experienced (think of an overflowing rain barrel), each person is invited to share their light with others in the group and around the globe (including all the people unaware such a movement exists!).

These gatherings are free!

The current incarnation is to meet by Zoom, for 20-30 minutes, on the 1st and 2nd Wednesdays of each month for a meditation/visualization/energy healing session at 8pm (eastern).

Since most of our time together will be with eyes closed, everyone is welcome to attend in their pjs and have their screens off. 

The project kicked off on January 1st, as an invitation-only event, allowing for a slow rollout the first three months. Now it is open to everyone — regardless of your world view or state of mind. I believe we all need as much light, love, and compassion as it’s possible to muster. And, if you’ve been feeling powerless, this forum holds space for making an impact on an energetic level. Since all things are energy — this is not a small action!

Fuel the Light is not a formal series. So, you are welcome to come to all of the 1st and 2nd Wednesday gatherings, drop in as it suits you, or just try a single one on, if that feels right.

If you wish to get a sense of past gatherings, you may click any of the video links, and try on the healing practice offered.

For some, live participation fits best. Others prefer to receive the video link, the next day, and practice at a time that fits for them. Certain folks set their clocks to participate at the same time as the live group; however, they engage in their own unique process of fueling the light. All forms of supportive engagement are welcome and encouraged.

One more thing of note. Some folks have been concerned that they are so depleted, discouraged, untethered, or on edge, that they have nothing to give. They fear attempting to give energy they don’t have or “pulling down the group.” If you are having one of those days, months, or seasons, and you’d like to be a part of this, but are wrangling this sort of despair, please know you’re not alone.

An important tenant of the Fuel the Light movement is honoring the loop of receiving and giving. Depending on the day, some participants will show up and allow themselves to simply receive the love and light energy generated and shared. This is essential! 

Every time a person takes care of themselves in this way — getting individually grounded, finding their center, experiencing rest and energetic nourishment — the whole universe is served by this act of self-love. I want you to have that, if you want it for yourself. 

Imagine, if we all made decisions from a place of centered clarity? I’d like to contribute to creating that world, as it’s a place I’d love to live.

Here’s what some participants have shared about their experiences:

“I find the meditations really powerful...”

“I sleep so well after each one, and sleep has been a struggle lately”

“It was relaxing, calming, and centering...”

“I fell asleep! I never fall asleep meditating, but I woke up and everyone was gone. I think I really needed to let myself receive.”

“I love the part when we share the light with each other and around the globe.”

Wishing you well, as we navigate this world storm together.

With love,
