Meditation And Me
Jump to Comments
I’ve been meditating, in one form or another, for most of my adult life. It is what anchors me, and keeps me grounded and free. Why then do I find it so hard to sit down and do sometimes? It’s the same thing with exercise, but that’s a topic for another day. Today was one of those days when I had time and still didn’t do either, and then tonight a great article in the AARP Webletter (yep, I’m signed up) showed up in my Inbox. It was on meditating, and the author reminded me of me, (except she went to India). Anyway, if you’ve ever tried . . . and failed . . . to meditate, read this, it’s good. And well written too, I think.

I have been struggling with this same tendency. I love to meditate, and have been at it for about 10 years now (I’m 35). But sometimes, it’s like I’ll do almost anything else first. Since I started staying home with my son, I do a short yoga routine, followed by abou 10 minutes of meditation each morning. It’s not much, but at least it’s regular. I’ll take a look at that letter
Thanks!

I’ve found that if I warm up with a little walking meditation, sitting meditation is easier.
