I have been reading a book by Thich Nhat Hanh "Peace is every breath", and it has made me pause and consider my meditation practice. Or the lack thereof.
There is always time to meditate - whether we are making a meal, or walking through the parking lot to work. The key is to be mindful. Being in the very moment, with our entire being. I recognize that I haven't been in the moment lately, and my stress level shows it. I have added a couple of power walks at work during my coffee breaks, but I am not mindful. I am quite sure that my mind is racing as fast as my legs are carrying me. So with this in mind, starting tomorrow, I am going to stay in the moment when I walk at coffee. And when I need to switch tasks, I am going to take a deep cleansing breath.
I know my mind and soul will thank me.
