Do you think you don’t meditate? Well think again! What happens when it’s your favourite track playing on iPod? When you feel so good petting your cat? When you love spending time with your best friend? When you just take a quick nap? You are meditating! No, really you are!
Meditation is as Natural as Breathing.
You don’t have to sit in some yoga poses wearing orange clothes to meditate. Think of it as breathing. Do you take out time to breathe? Do you make any extra effort to breathe? Do you wear special clothes to breathe? No! Same is true for meditation too.
Don’t do anything to begin. Either follow the simple meditation process I talked about in earlier post or just do any of following:
- Plug-in your iPod: Just put on your favourite inspirational music. Love songs do the best.
- Paint: Even if you think you can’t. Just paint for the fun of it, not to show it to anyone… just for your soul.
- Write a Poem: Let your thoughts flow, forget the rhyming scheme or book on ‘How to Write Poetry’ just be with the flow.
- Watch Sunset or Sunrise: It’s wonderful, do it with someone special and now it’s really special.
- Travel: You are not living your life id you are not traveling.
- Pet your cat: or whatever pet you have (if you have one)
- Play with a baby: it really teaches you a lot.
- Play a music instrument or Learn to play one.
- Watch Comedy Shows: Well that’s easy
What’s on your list? Add to the list! Let’s make it grow. (Use comment section)
None of these sound like traditional meditation, do they? Well that’s what this blog is all about: new simple, easy or crazy ideas.
These simple things will allow you get more control over your thoughts. They will start flying in formations. You will begin to change your feelings deliberately. You will start living by heart. This is meditation. Just let go. Be at ease and let it flow. Now, you are at peace.
Share your experiences, problems, questions or simple/crazy ideas in comments. I’d love to hear them all!
