Good Morning, it is already Friday! I read a fantastic article in the Sunday New York Times, regarding Meditation. My brain is like a Ferrari, and I crave to quiet myself . I have tried different meditation programs, bought many books, and I took a mindfulness meditation class in San Francisco for eight weeks. I have to laugh, on the final day of my meditation class, we could not speak from 9-5, the lunch break was something I will never forget. We had to walk around in the dark and not look at anyone. I ended up walking into a wall, and of course was laughing my head off. I took my tiny peanut butter sandwich into the large dark room, sat down, and there were people lying on the floor. Next thing I knew , someone farted so loud, I threw the sandwich out, and wanted out of the place asap! It was like an animal farm.
The good news is , this past week, I found an incredible, visual and fun meditation site, it is called headspace.com. I love the man who guides it , he lives in England and his voice is just like Chris Martin’s from Coldplay. He is not touchy feely, he teaches executives, and the rest of humanity. I bought a year subscription, and I am on day five. I go out to the barn, light a candle and love love it. Please take a look at the website. Oh, the englishman, was also a buddhist monk, and has written a book which I hope to read this weekend. Namaste, Courtney . xoxooxxooxoxo
OK, but also… maybe you need to really rev it up, too. Not just try to stay calm. Nobody likes keeping the Ferrari in the garage all the time! Keep getting out there and taking the curves, baby!!!!
Wonderful post, Darling! Thanks!
