Today is day 21 of my Meditation Neuro-Frequency Activation Devotion I just finished my last meditation upon waking. My feet haven’t hit the floor. It’s quiet and the sun has risen. I think Spring is finally here in Nashville and I’m so glad it is! I’ll even take the pollen over this cold weather! My first time attempting meditation was in 2008. In 2005 I had purchased my first home in Snellville, Ga all by myself, had a great job as an Electrical Drafter less than 15 miles away. Life was good. Then the recession of 2008 arrived and I lost my home. I was forced back into an apartment and I went from making $60,000 in three months to $290/week in unemployment and only $10 in EBT A MONTH! I was devastated , depressed and I had no positive outlook, even from my balcony of my 2BR apartment overlooking Highway 20 and Stonecrest Mall. I turned to mediation. I had been fasting over a week before Bible Study on Tuesdays, and I even had challenged myself years earlier to fast for three days, just because. During this time, I did my first week of water only. I also began researching and practicing meditation. Most days I would just fall asleep. It didn’t matter if I was sitting cross legged or sitting on my couch. Forget about it if I laid down. I thought Guided Meditation would help but the person’s voice would pull me to sleep. I’d pick meditation up…and put it down over the years; I came to understand the many ways meditation can be done and I realized I was meditation far more often than I thought I was. If meditation is new to you, don’t give up! Let the thoughts come! I “wrote” most of this post while meditating just now 😉
