About two weeks ago, I started a yoga teacher training program. Last Sunday, the class had a lecture in meditation -- which really was 3 hours of learning to meditate. Mind you, I am not big on sitting still for any length of time and meditation has never been high on my "must do" list. BUT I left the class with a sense of ease. The teacher made meditation fun and accessible -- and really some stuff was inspirational to life in general:
First and foremost -- find your seat. Find your seat on your cushion and in your life.
Straighten your spine -- nobody needs to be hunched over like bent stick.
Breathe long and deep breathes -- breath is energy. We cannot live without breath so why not make them some good ones???
Acknowledge your thoughts
And you can always begin again if you get sidetracked. Each breath you BEGIN AGAIN.
Enjoy your day -- sit tall, breath deep, and enjoy what comes your way.
