The reason for the rather lengthy Part 1 of this, was to ultimately get me to Part 2. (Or as my granddaughter says when I ask what she & I are going to do for fun, "What comes before Part B? ~ Part Tay!") There's nothing better than young people to keep me fresh and alive. Once again, as the Golden Girls' Sophia would have said, "I digress".
Recently I had someone ask what kind of meditation I teach. Perhaps I am shooting myself in the foot in case there may have been a future individual or group requesting class for payment. After answering this kind man I realized that Mindfulness Meditation is so simple there really should be no charge for the sharing of the information.
In fact, although I do teach it, I do so without charge. It is taught as part of my Reiki practice.
Mindfulness Meditation can be taught to children, to adults with ADD (such as myself), to any age group that is mentally stressed and needs to find an appropriate coping mechanism, and to anyone who is so rushed from daily life that it's all they can do to eek out the time to shower or bathe - there is simply no time for the passive act of "sitting". It is also for the "I just was never able to get to the point of NOTHINGNESS folks". They are the people (and again, I was one of them), who would sit and try to make their minds a blank. When this "blank" didn't come they/I would get frustrated and quit the session for the day. They/I also would on occasion while sitting "realize" that the long looked for blankness had happened; BUT upon the realization of this - Holy Crow! The blankness was gone and the mind was once again whirling, making us feel even worse than before.
My computer is only good for a few hours at a time before it overheats and shuts itself off. This session will be continued. Blessed Be
My place to share things that I don't believe that I would share with so many people I don't know. Once people recognize who I really am, depending on what I have said I probably will not so many things that I don't believe that I would share anymore!!!!
