Just added Aischai’s blog to my feedlist!

I love the idea of meditation in motion, just gaining that awareness of your surroundings and feelings. I could use more of that in my life.

I do sometimes just focus on breathing for a while and that calms me.

Another brilliant guest post. I love the way he encourages us to slow down and look at things. His life sounds fascinating.

…of course I’m so neurotic I had check where he was from in England so I could hear it in my head with the appropriate accent LMAO

It is extremely coincidental that you have this post today, or that I got it E-mailed to me today, since I noticed a slight lag time in when the post is posted and when I get it. I was talking to friend last night who kept insisting that meditation would help me so much. He was giving me different examples of how to go about it and how those minutes or ours are the MOST valuable in your day. I was saying that one reason I have never really been able to get into it is because I feel rather unproductive. He begged to differ, and I logically agreed. I don’t think I have talked or heard mention of meditation in MONTHS and then back to back. My friend and a post here! Maybe I should take the hint

I loved it though, especially about slowing things down if you are busy. I think that is where I will start today.

Thanks for helping!

*Love this post* I was reading it….with purpose. It was calming just to read his word and step into his apple world. I’ve tried meditation before and never stuck with it. I like his definition much better and will try it again. Thanks Miz and to Aishchai, “That was an awesome post!”

I’ve always been so curious about meditation. As someone who has trouble relaxing, it def. intrigues me.

This was a great post! I live in very hectic & crowded southern CA so this is really important! It is nice for him to also show that you don’t have to sit & cross your legs & say a mantra if you don’t want to go that way. I like his take on all the different ways you “can calm”! Thx for sharing!

I don’t have a regular meditation practice, but I’ve listened to several CDs about meditation and I incorporate some of the techniques when I’m walking or running, or at other times when “monkey mind” is particularly bad. (Like when I’m laying awake in bed, wanting to sleep, and my brain starts racing. I know, when you’re a serious practitioner, you’re supposed to learn to do it and NOT fall asleep, but oh well.) It helps me quite a lot, especially in being more patient with others and with life in general.
