Unplug, Breathe, Thrive
Embarking on the spiritual journey is like getting into a very small boat and setting out on the ocean to search for unknown lands. With wholehearted practice comes inspiration, but sooner or later we will also encounter fear. For all we know, when we get to the horizon, we are going to drop off the edge of the world. Like all explorers, we are drawn to discover what’s waiting out there without knowing yet if we have the courage to face it.
Whatever makes you glad to be alive - do that, whenever you can.
Feeling overwhelmed? Join us for a transformative meditation experience on Fear.

This Week's Focus: Fear
Key Points:
· &nbsp;Fear is natural—and workable. We can’t stop it from arising, but we can change how we meet it.
· &nbsp;Mindful awareness softens fear. Turning toward fear with presence reveals it as a passing feeling, not a fixed reality.
· &nbsp;Courage grows from connection. When we remember our interdependence, fear loosens and steadiness returns.
The teachings are given freely!

FEAR
Fear is not an enemy to conquer, but an energy to meet with mindful awareness.
Fear is a natural human response to uncertainty. In challenging times, it can rise quickly, whispering of what might go wrong and quietly tightening our sense of ease. We cannot prevent fear from appearing, but we cantransform the way we relate to it.
Thich Nhat Hanh reminds us, “The only way to ease our fear… is to acknowledge our fear and look deeply at its source.” So often, fear grows from our longing to control what lies beyond our reach—our health, the future, the safety of those we love, the impermanence of all things. We cling tightly, hoping the grasp will keep us safe, yet this tension rarely brings comfort.
Mindfulness does not ask us to erase fear. It invites us instead to pause, to breathe, and to gently turn toward what unsettles us. When we meet fear with presence rather than resistance, it softens. We begin to see it clearly—as a temporary state, not a defining truth. In that clarity, we reclaim our steadiness. We remember that we are not powerless; we can hold our experience without being overwhelmed by it.
This is the heart of courage: the willingness to stay present. Through practice, we touch something deeper—our interconnectedness, the truth that we belong to a larger whole. From this place of belonging, fear gradually loosens its hold, and a quiet resilience begins to grow.

Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness

Dogtopia of Norwell

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the absolute best in care, safety, and play. Whether you’re dropping off for a few hours of play, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa treatment, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home. Our dog daycare provides a safe, supervised, and engaging environment where dogs can enjoy off-leash play in spacious playrooms designed for their comfort. Each playroom is separated by size and temperament, ensuring every pup is paired with the right friends for safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches are always on hand to encourage good behavior, monitor interactions, and provide lots of love and attention. Dogtopia isn’t just about play — it’s about wellness, too. A day at Dogtopia helps your dog stay active, burn off energy, and return home happy and relaxed. To support overall health, we offer the DASH Activity Collar — a daycare-approved smart collar. DASH tracks your dog’s activity levels, rest, and wellness, giving you valuable insights into their health and behavior both at Dogtopia and at home. It’s another way we make sure your pup is not only having fun, but thriving. Our boarding services give dogs a chance to enjoy all-day play and restful nights under the care of our trusted team. And if your dog needs a little pampering, our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so they’ll look and feel their best. As pet parents ourselves, we know safety and transparency matter. That’s why every Dogtopia location is equipped with webcams, allowing you to check in on your pup throughout the day. Our facilities are sanitized with pet-safe cleaning products, and our staff is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols. At Dogtopia, we’re passionate about giving dogs the love, exercise, and socialization they need to thrive — while giving pet parents peace of mind. Discover why so many families trust us as their dog’s second home.
