Sun and blue sky today. Perfect for a walk in nature .. a little adventure with a friend.⁣
⁣
I’ve been meaning to visit here. ⁣
⁣
Today was the day.⁣
⁣
So we finally walked this sweet labyrinth.⁣
⁣
And step by step.. we mindfully shared our intentions.⁣
⁣
Such a lovely ritual. ⁣

Really enjoyed watching Shannon Harvey’s new doc

Really enjoyed watching Shannon Harvey’s new documentary tonight .. My Year of Living Mindfully!⁣
⁣
The film is currently being Previewed online for a week .. and you can Google to gain free access to the film. I enjoyed the Case Studies aspect and the science lens which Shannon was looking through. Plus a nice panel discussion at the end with Shannon, Dr Craig Hassed, Amit Bernstein Phd (working with trauma and refugees)and Lynne Malcolm ABC’s presenter of ‘All in the Mind’.⁣
⁣
Key takeaways right now .. in this moment:⁣
⁣
*meditation essentially and confidently helps us understand how our mind really works, how to improve emotional self regulation and preparing for uncertainty and change⁣
⁣
*mindfulness meditation is not a cure-all for illness, but helps us deal better with any illness - and also how to take much better care of ourselves AND make better choices in life⁣
⁣
*hearing a researcher say, ‘if this is working - where would we notice it? .. it may not always be biology but rather how it might positively influence our life.⁣
⁣
*If economic success was the marker of happiness and success .. then we would all be happy as many of us live in a time of relative affluence - yet rates of depression and anxiety are constantly rising; mindfulness has been shown to positively influence depression and make us happier (and it’s free and easy to learn)
⁣
**** I’m excited to look further into Subjective Wellbeing . I realize that this is the term that best represents my own belief in why meditation matters .. doing the science from the inside!⁣
⁣
*We can confuse using technology for science and to understand phenomena. Our technologies are still very young and crude when understanding what happens in our ‘inner world’.⁣
⁣
*Maybe the point is to better understand ourselves, our life and our world. ⁣
⁣
*Do the meditation! The you can know for yourselves what the benefits are and why it’s important ... it may take science a while to catch up. ⁣

This isolation time and the shift towards Winter that kept me inside and online today .. have certainly gifted a little more space to roam.⁣
⁣
Who knew that Pinterest now has a ‘Business’ account?⁣
⁣
Which means that Quiet Mind Meditation can now gather all the beautiful images and concepts together in one place .. away from the pretty but personal stuff.⁣
⁣
Apparently Pinterest is the fourth most popular platform in the US .. with up to 235m active users. Blimey!⁣
⁣
So. Because it’s fun to find and share pictures and I was cosy .. I kinda got caught up with this ‘shiny new’ place to play.⁣
⁣
I made just a couple of boards to start ..But. Oh. The. Fun. To. Be. Had!⁣
⁣
If my mission is to inspire others to meditate .. I had to give it a run.⁣
⁣
Do you Pinterest?⁣
⁣
You’ll find me hanging around www.pinterest.com,au/QuietMindMeditation⁣

[BLOG] did you know that I started my blog for Quiet Mind Meditation over eleven years ago? Over 2000 posts .. but also three different websites so it’s much cleaner and more current now.⁣
⁣
Over on the blog I get to write and share all the ‘art and science’ of meditation and my own journey.⁣
⁣
Right now I am giving a little insight into what we are practicing and thinking about over in The Seasonal Lounge.⁣
⁣
Week Two review is now up.⁣
⁣
There will be two more posts coming shortly before we transition into Winter Season.⁣
⁣
You can JOIN US for our Winter program .. starting soon .. 1st JUNE!⁣

This week, back in 2018 .. we were finalising details for our Ashram Experience.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It was such an exciting time.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Bliss Bomb Retreats had been holding seasonal urban retreats for a couple of years and we kept hearing questions like, ‘what is an ashram?’ and ‘what happens on a residential retreat’ and ‘do we have to go to India for the experience?’⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And my trusty companion, the inspiring yogi Jenny (#Yoga_for_travellers) and I both knew that there was a sweet little ashram right here in Victoria. Jenny had visited many ashrams across the globe .. as a wandering and curious Yogi does .. so we thought .. how wonderful it would be to take our community into a weekend ashram experience.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And we had such a wonderful response.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The ashram community were helpful and inclusive, and the weather was kind .. and so we shared in the rhythm of ashram life for the weekend, also bringing our own yoga and meditation offerings, sharing meals and daily tasks, maintaining noble silence and taking a mindful walk into the surrounding forests.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
June is an ideal time to take retreat, and so in The Seasonal Lounge this month we shall practice simple rituals, meditations and mindfulness practices to celebrate the seasonal energy of Winter which invites us to ‘Retreat’. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In July our theme is Bodyfulness; embracing mindful movement as our focus, to stoke our inner fire in the coldest of months. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In August our theme is ‘Self-Inquiry’; taking this pause to reflect and inquire .. and plant the seeds of lasting change before the arrival of Spring.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Details in the bio.⁣⁣ ⁣
