i've been contemplating meditation lately. not so much weighing out the pros and cons, seeing as how there are no cons that I am aware of, but considering the commitment... finding a starting point and fully dedicating myself to that moment each day. probably in the morning before the chaos of life rolls in, in the form of a rousing two year old. i even had my yoga instructor privately guide me through a meditation during our last practice. it was elevating and soothing and wonderful. "i want this every day," i told her. so what a coin-ki-dink that i should run across the following in my latest issue of self magazine. i really look forward to their last-page tidbits.
we talk about the time we spend sitting, thinking and breathing in a guilty way. as if the absence of action implies a lack of accomplishment. but doing nothing is doing something. by emptying your head of your usual to-dos, you create space for new ideas and experiences. your mission this month: be still. you'll build the launch pad for your next adventure.
i'm pretty sure this was a sign. hello morning mediation!
