Meditating Day 3
Tuesday, November 08, 2011
Hey, 3 days in a row, not bad. I was tempted to skip this morning, but I feel accountable now that I've vowed to do this and put it in writing. Guilt can be a wonderful motivator.
Used my phone alarm as my timer, worked better than the computer screen. If anyone ever tries meditating I wonder if you have noticed what great designs you can see on the back of your eye lids! If I sit in the sun it's a wonderful mix of swirly colours. In artificial light it's more of a white dot I see in the distance.
So, thoughts in the midst of emptiness today were:
dishwasher running
what is that humming noise I hear?
hmmm, is that rain drops on our chimney (it's metal)
so much to do at work today
Wow, my mind is a chattery place. It was nice giving it a wee break during the 10 minutes session. Oh and I felt like I was floating a little and rocking (could be that the rocking recliner I was sitting in was moving with my breath) but I didn't open my eyes to check it out. I rather enjoyed the motion in my mind.
