Greetings!
I found this picture and said "Now that looks peaceful!". Wouldn't it be great if we all could find a moment and a space where we can get to this peaceful moment? It's not as hard as it may seem - Really it isn't!!
The place you find may not be as beautiful as this or as quiet seeming on the outside, but with the right frame of mind, a "bubble" of calm can be found even in the most hectic location. I have always marveled at my sister's ability to remain calm and centered amid her family's chaotic lifestyle (that's the way it seems to me, anyway!). She has 3 young children and owns an organic, Community Supported Agriculture farm, and there is constant activity at her place. She has found her center and lives there daily!
Have you ever had that moment in "the bubble", where you know that your surroundings are loud and busy, but you have felt like, well... like you were in a "bubble"? I can go there if I have a good book to read or something to concentrate on. I believe that we all can accomplish this stillness whenever we wish to, all it takes is mindfullness and a desire to do so.
Even a few minutes of this stillness can do wonders for our minds and bodies. So be aware of those moments in the "bubble" and try to create more of them! |

Staying in the NOW
Last month I asked if any of you would be interested in a small meditation study group. I have heard from a few people, but would like to get more involved in the group.
We could get together maybe once a week to discuss and practice meditation at my studio. Let me know what you think of the idea.
