Most People Think That To Meditate, I

Most People Think That To Meditate, I Should Feel A Particular Special Something, And If I Don't, Then I Must Be Doing Something Wrong.

Mindfulness Is A Way To Rebalance Ourselves. Instead Of Being Lost In Thought, Or Caught Up In Emotional Upheaval, We Can Tip The Scale In The Direction Of Greater Equanimity, Clarity, Wisdom, And Self-compassion By Actually Learning How To Inhabit That Other Dimension Of Our Being.

There Are Certain Ways In Which I Cultivate Awareness, Both Through Mindful Yoga And Taking Care Of My Body And Taking Time To Actually Drop As Deeply As Possible Into Stillness, Into Whatever Is Unfolding In The Present Moment.

Meditation Is Really A Non-doing. It Is The Only Human Endeavor I Know Of Being Where You Already Are.

Non-doing Has Nothing To Do With Being Indolent Or Passive. Quite The Contrary. It Takes Great Courage And Energy To Cultivate Non-doing, Both In Stillness And In Activity. Nor Is It Easy To Make A Special Time For Non-doing And To Keep At It In The Face Of Everything In Our Lives Which Needs To Be Done.
