It’s been a while since I posted but I am back from my travels.
Sitting regularly in meditation, I was inspired to shoot a raw video. Here’s what’s really fascinating. The mind has a way of always thinking of what if that or what if this. Observing my thoughts, it is hilarious. It’s like watching a play in your head. For a while, I was afraid of putting something out there because I was fearful that it wouldn’t be good enough and whoever would watch it, would find it absurd. Thoughts of inadequacy came and went as I sat through my meditation. How long was this going on in my head? And so here’s what I came out with. Dropping my silly funny fearful guys running around to keep me from putting a silly Youtube video, I shot a video anyway in a dimly lit room capturing me closing my eyes with fear of being judged and looking silly. Notice how many times, I typed fear. It’s pretty funny. It apparently is my favorite word. Whatever. What I am focusing on is giving and educating about meditation; with the hope and love, as corny as it sounds, but again “whatever,” for everyone to make time for themselves to sit quietly and practice restfulness through meditating. Seeing and noticing the fear and publishing the video. Have fun watching some girl closing her eyes. What do you think you will get?
Every meditation is unique. No meditation is not better than the other. In meditation, there is an opportunity to go beyond good or bad, right and wrong. It is expanding. It is limitless. Anything is possible in life, love, work, and every aspect of life. What are you learning and discovering about yourself and the world around you? Are you noticing how busy your mind is too?
Takeaway: We will all have thoughts and feelings come. Some may be difficult and some may be pleasant. However, we don’t need to be identified with them. We can see what shows up for us. Observe, note, let go and get back to what you are doing. Expanding our experience. See what happens for you. Wishing you peace, joy, health, and love as you close 2019.
