I am fortunate enough to be looking forward to a week of “rest” away from the usual influences of the everday push. This is one week each year that I get to do my own thing at my own pace. I have no one to answer to but me. So I will read in the quiet hours, light my prayer candles and meditate, take more walks and more nature time. Listen to my own music…the kind on cd’s and the music inside of me…

I recommend that people who are so inclined visit http://www.meditationoasis.com. They have a podcast that is amazing, and effective. Even when I’m manic it helps to calm the chemical beast within.

Thanks, Jennifer, for your enlightening and inspiring comments.

That was a very INSPIRING post, actually. Thanks! I am one of the people who feel too guilty to intentionally slow down and release, though I have been taking more time to meditate each day. I do know that my inspiration comes from having these regular meditation sessions, even if it is only 10 or 15 minutes a day. What is the first thing I do when I sit down to meditate? I take at least 10 deep breaths. There are days when I have difficulty shutting down my busy mind chatter, but I am getting better. Yesterday I sat outside in the sun to meditate and write, and though I could hear traffic noise, I was able to shut that out, and open to allow the words to flow in from spirit. Ahhhh – so nice that way!

I am learning meditation and I have really struggled to slow down enough to take the time to do it. Our lives are insane and if we make this dedicated effort to pause, our lives will become more meaningful.

Yesterday, I signed on for Creative Every Day 2009. I was so moved by this web,and I thought how wonderful to have a assignment monthly, to get the juices flowing.
I thought about the September’s-inspiration-challage all thoughout the day. I even look up the word, and went to bed thinking about it. Thank you for reminding me to pull rather then push.
