During these moments, it becomes vital that we find our calm.
There are many ways to do this; however, meditation serves as a natural avenue way to relax the mind, body, and spirit. It provides a much-needed rejuvenation from the outside world. Although a simple practice, for individuals such as myself meditating can be boring and difficult to maintain. I often thought I was failing because I could not stay still or keep my mind focused long enough. After a while, I would just stop altogether. Feeling disappointed, I decided to change things up a bit and get creative. I no longer wanted to attempt to fit myself into a definition of what meditation was or was not. In order to improve things, I decided to incorporate things that were important to me in order to establish a routine. Here are the steps I took to make an experience for myself verses and activity.
As you can see, meditation does not have to be a stereotypical event. By incorporating everything listed above, mediation truly became an experience for me. By no means do you have to follow my path. You are free to create whatever you need for connection to occur. At the end of the day, don’t worry about getting it right. Just start. Roberts-Buckley, L.
