This Month’s Being Game: Being Supportive

Being Supportive is the topic of our “Being Game” at Dharma this month. The intention behind the Being Game is to hold a virtue in mind every day as a way to deepen our understanding and experience of an aspect of awakening. Each day one of us expresses their experience of playing the game with the rest of our team. Being supportive has brought awareness to the many ways we support ourselves, each other, and the planet at large. By remembering this, we give more attention to our interactions – “holding space” as we like to say – and really being present to each other. This might also mean being more in tune with our bodies which may be needing more skillful meal choices, water, exercise, rest, emotional support, etc. To us it certainly means holding all of you in a caring, patient and supportive manner. We welcome your thoughts on how being supportive manifests in your life.
