Observational Meditaton

​The cloudy skies and below freezing temperatures this morning seemed to be a reflection of how I have been feeling the last couple days – grey, cold and slightly frosty.  

I was hoping for some inspiration when I opened my email this morning.  My coach Noam sent me some feedback on my blogs and suggested I watch his video on Intention vs. Attention.  That video suggested I watch another video on The Art of Mediation.  I watched both and decided to take a meditative walk, right then, in the middle of my work day, without a plan or goal.  

Noam says a walking meditation begins with being observant.  I decided to veer from the path, to explore the briars, the brush, the rocks, the logs and the trees.  Here’s what I found.

​This wandering, meditative walk, was good for my soul today.  I’m still not out of the doldrums, but that may be due to my allergies and lack of sleep this week.

Did you know that intentionally putting expectations on yourself can create a personal dilemma of epic proportions?
