#recommitToSit 8/365 I'm posting this a day late (been busy with commencement)

heading out for my weekly group sitting :-)

#recommitToSit 3/365 tried laying down meditation tonight...

Will be doing this first thing in the morning. :)

We all matter. We're all stars in the sky, each of us has a different purpose, location, and a connection to each other.

Been playing Leela, but not so much the meditation as the play part. Supposed to help align chakra's regardless.

A person should meditate one minute per of age. Example, I'm 35 so I should meditate 35 minutes a day. It's just good for you. :)

Meditation is a process of slowly coming to know, understand, and work with the essence of (as oppsed to the appearance of) your mind. Shamatha (Sanskrit) or shyine (Tibetan) is the state of non-distraction, peaceful resting, or cooling down from a state of mental, emotional, and sensory excitement (“chillaxing”) and resting stably there in that state.

What meditation is NOT:
 “Blissing out”
 Striving for peace, clarity, or joy
 A way of stopping thoughts
 A means of emptying the mind
 Spacing out
 Avoiding or escaping reality
 Daydreaming
 Self-absorption
 Selfish

Was too tired last night & wanted to read, but played the chakra games on Leela.

Fair group meditation. Not sure this is a good group to go back to. Nice peeps - I didn't leave with a post meditation high.

"One of the main things that happens when you meditate is that regret starts to surface and you start to think about your life. Meditation neutralizes denial after a while and opens up the circuits and things start to flow in, and then you begin to realize that regret is a distortion of what’s real. What’s real is that this is your life, and it happened, and there’s no going back. There’s only altering your attitude and perception about it so that you can go forward."

I need to learn how to do this #buddhistmeditation #meditation more often...... om mani padme hum

Something worth trying

It's that time of night.

Breathing in. Breathing out.

You are what you think. Think it today. Become it tomorrow. Nothing can help you or hurt you as much as the thoughts you carry in your head.

Respect should be taught by parents, given by children and earned by all.Expecting it without giving it back just doesn't make sense. Learn it..use it.live it!

Sometimes it's only after you leave a situation that you realize you shouldn't have been in it to begin with.

I'm awake, the house is asleep, and I can hear the rain falling... Great time to do nothing and just be...

Meditation is in three hours. Hoping to have one of my essays for my midterm done by then.

Really wish the little bit I did would help me sleep. No such luck.

Going to read a chapter in "Turning The Mind Into Your Ally", followed by a daily inspiration from Pema Chodron and then meditate.
