Awareness exercises, simple meditation techniques and secrets of the ancients revealed for fulfillment, peace of mind and happiness.
Before attacking that growing mess in the front
closet or basement, try turning your attention inward,
to perform a spring cleaning of your mind.
Sit still
become very still
be alert
as if this is the only moment that counted
and it is
feel you heart beating
now become aware of the pulse in your wrist
now switch your attention
to your breath
first the in-breath
now
the out-breath
observe the initial thought
that pulls your attention away
now
isolate that thought
separate from that thought
notice it and put it aside and
return
to the awareness of your breath
continue for twenty minutes if possible.
The front closet can wait!
