Hello hello. How are you, friends?
In thinking about what to share with you this morning, I was reminded of this moment that I had while making coffee earlier. The little moments are always the one that get me the most, the ordinary and every day things. It’s the care with the water, the coffee, the filter. I felt like I was noticing the texture of the mug differently today. There was a bit of slowing down to notice. It wasn’t about my actions slowing, but my mind.
This seems to me what we practice in meditation. We catch the quiet moments with the breath. Maybe we find a quality to the breath we didn’t notice before. Maybe we are able to find a little space in our minds between the thoughts. All kinds of experiences are possible, even in these ten minutes.
As we spend more time in this space, there’s a little more that comes out of our practice and into other areas of life too. Maybe it’s the coffee or maybe it’s a conversation with a friend where you feel more present. A gift, either way.
Thank you so much for being here. 💗 Take care.
