Exploring different types of meditation
Two meditation discoveries yesterday: a walking meditation (three different guided meditations) and a site called Mindful Worship that offers a variety of free and paid meditations including a series on the fruits of the spirit (and where have I heard that before?). Did the walking meditation this morning and chose the one of the three that was focused on enlivening the senses (other two are enlivening the body and being fully present). The day is gorgeous even out in the hinterlands so I got a chance to focus on the air, the sounds of the street, the smells of the flowers and trees and occasional smoker. By the time I was finished with that I had caught up with a friend and we walked together the rest of the way picking a challenging route. Awake, aware, fairly calm...
This afternoon or late morning I'll do a meditation from Mindful Worship (the fruit is gentleness) and will try and note my thoughts for all to share. This really is a journey!
