So happy Monday friends. I was very encouraged to actually take the time to jump into step 3 of the classroom in meditation. If you haven't done this guided moment. click here This 16 minutes of just taking the time to breath and do some nostril breathing with the awareness of letting go of the stress of the day of everything compiling up. Great time of meditation

Today's practice for myself, went quite well. A very busy mind in the beginning but as always it cleared up. How was your practice today? I'd love to hear from some new voices. We have 151 members, and as I see it, that's 151 intentions to meditate. What's your intention for practice today and going into this weekend?

To study the way Is to study the self To study the self Is to forget the self To forget the self Is to be enlightened by all things To be enlightened by all things Is to remove the barrier Between self and other. Now no trace of enlightenment Though enlightenment continues In daily life endlessly. ~Dogen

I’m curious what’s your relationship to meditation and writing. How has that impacted your life?

What you want, is already here. It's always been here. When we allow the mind to rest, the fog to settle, we can see clearly the truth... There's an awareness that's absolutely complete. From this wholeness you can accomplish all things, through resting, and taking action at the same time. How do we access this? Through daily mind training, coming back and letting things settle. Through resting into trust. Rest into your nature.
