Meditation Challenge
I began a Meditation Challenge this week. It's been good so far. It helps me stay focused, relax and be more mindful of my spiritual goals. I have meditated for a couple years, but hope this will deepen my commitment to doing it as a regular practice. I sit quietly at 5:00 a.m. when I get up, for a few minutes. I read spiritual literature and then close my eyes and go deep within. I observe my breathing and let my mind drift. I love the quietude. My mind is usually racing or worrying so to have it rest is wonderful.
I am seeing results already. Today I kept out of a conversation I didn't need to participate in, and felt better for doing that. I also have had 3 fruitful work days in a row!
Three years ago I could not have done this. I was so afraid to sit still. Now I find it interesting, not threatening. Amazing!
