Any activity that brings us into the present moment, opens up the possibility of meditation. Just for today, let us all become a little more present while drinking our tea.
The practice of breath awareness any time of the day
Makes us scowl less, feeling joyful and gay.
We can choose any comfortable pose
Observing our in-breath and out-breath
As it passes through the tunnel-like pathways in our pyramid shaped nose
Rubbing our palms together, we place them gently on our eyes
Coming back to the NOW moment, feeling fresh and energized
Meditate as much as your current age
Perched on a mat, in a clean and quiet space
You can choose any given time of the day
To spend some time alone with your breath,
To spend some time alone with your breath,
Keeping your fuzzy thoughts at bay
Practicing it daily through sunshine or rain
Will give you the much-needed zest
What do we do when we disagree with our boss ( be it in the office or at home )? We have to learn to let go of our fixed ideas. The opposite of fixed ideas is openness. If we think that boss is wrong, then we should be compassionate( considerate and tolerant ). If he is right then we should be open to change. We should try to always learn and grow. Keeping our own longer-term well being in mind of course.
Meditation teaches us openness.
