Following a few bevvies last Thursday, Friday and Saturday I skipped four days of my usual morning meditation.
I mean I would usually skip a session the day after a session, but a combination of that treble header and wanting to 'get on' with the day on Monday as soon as I got up this week just meant I really wasn't in the mood.
The odd thing is I've been feeling as mentally balanced without the meditation as I have with it, which is not something I expected.
Perhaps this is because I've had quite a lot of gentle physical activity in the last few days - having had to clear out my upstairs for a carpet fitting, and I've done a fair few other non too taxing gentle chores too,
Or perhaps its work - I work on a self imposed three week schedule, and this is the third week of three, which is my easy week.
Perhaps rather than more specific, seated meditation I just need an easier life, I just need to do less.
Funny, I've long thought I should buy a hammock and use it a lot! Perhaps that time in life is now?
Or maybe i need to get back on that damn cushion, I'm well set up for it now I've got a whole, newly carpeted room with just a cushion in it:
Maybe I need to get back on the cushion and go into unbalance, into the depths of myself, sit with the discomfort
Maybe MORE meditation would yield even more, or less, certainly something different!
I need to get rid of that paint stain off the door first of all, that's for sure!
