Morning blessings.⁣
⁣
This is a great reason to wake - drink - pee - meditate!⁣
⁣
Not only feeling pretty chilled and strong in myself from my morning meditation .. but grateful for this colorful and joyful start to my day.⁣

I’ve started a new LinkedIn series of posts call

I’ve started a new LinkedIn series of posts called ‘52 Reasons Why You Should Meditate’.⁣
⁣
In part I’m doing this because: ⁣
⁣
* I think it’s really interesting what western scientific research is showing us (about this ancient practice) ⁣
* I’ve found that many people simply do not realize the many reported benefits .. or known about the research⁣
* It gives me an opportunity to refresh my own reading in this space.⁣
⁣
In recent years there have been thousands of studies done on meditation .. and as a meditation teacher I feel that it’s vital to keep updated on what’s going on 😎⁣
⁣
These will be in no particular order .. but I’ve shared reason #1 ... and it’s the most common reason that I hear as a teacher.⁣
⁣
Come over and friend me on LinkedIn .. or check in each Tuesday when I’ll be posting the next 51 Reasons Why You Should Meditate!⁣
⁣

Meditation + Creativity⁣ ⁣ With a regular medi

Meditation + Creativity⁣
⁣
With a regular meditation practice, you have that regular ‘date’ with yourself, and in that quiet stillness you are cultivating a deeper sense of peace and calm .. and expanding your sense of spaciousness.⁣
⁣
It’s like stepping into a clearing within the calming green forest .. you sit awhile undisturbed, and quite naturally you start to reconnect with your senses, and your inner library of memories, experiences, emotions, thoughts and intuition.⁣
⁣
In this state of being, there is an opportunity for ‘the dots to find each other’.⁣
⁣
Meaning: in this quiet and spacious state of mind .. a distant memory might meet up + with an article that you read earlier in the morning + with a sound that you just heard .. and almost like magic, a creative idea blossoms into conscious awareness – this is creative thinking!⁣
⁣
A regular meditation practice gives our mind space and awareness to inspire creativity .. and creativity can also guide and inspire our meditation.⁣
⁣
In February our theme in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ is CREATIVITY and each week (for four weeks) I will share some meditation practices, mindfulness exercises and daily rituals to enhance your sense of spaciousness and openness, to encourage creative thought to arise.⁣
⁣
Maybe my favorite theme of the whole year!
⁣

CREATIVITY is our theme in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ for February.⁣
⁣
Summer’s Fire energy is still burning brightly and continues to inspire us to seek expression and creativity.⁣
⁣
In February we shall explore how we can tap into our innate creativity through meditation, mindfulness and ritual.⁣
⁣
‘The Seasonal Lounge’ is a monthly membership and you can find details through the link in our bio.⁣

“.. we are all infused with a creative force, and when we are not following our creative dreams we are shutting ourselves off from a profound source of divine energy” - Julia Cameron, author of “The Artist’s Way”⁣

Sleep. Ahhhh ... ⁣
⁣
We all need good sleep for our physical and mental health .. and yet so many experience challenges getting to sleep or staying asleep.⁣
⁣
I’m researching and writing more about Sleep today for our ‘Energize’ theme in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ meditation membership .. and both our dogs are happily enjoying a long mid/day snooze at my feet 🐶 (*this is Mooch who is a real moocher).⁣
⁣
Because a good sleep .. energized us! ⁣
⁣
Do you have trouble sleeping or staying asleep?⁣
⁣
I often get questions about meditation and sleep .. either how to ‘use’ meditation FOR sleep or those who want to try to NOT fall asleep in meditation! The two extremes!⁣
⁣
I have some guidelines around both these issues .. which I’m sharing next week with the membership community. Is this of interest to you? ⁣
⁣
Shall I share some well-tested ‘meditation inspired’ exercises to help with your sleep?⁣

⁣ This week in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ I share

⁣
This week in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ I shared one of my favourite rituals .. a Joy Quest or Joy List. ⁣
⁣
We look at what Joy means to us, what actions, tasks or behaviours bring us joy (from the tiny little ones, to the expansive big hitters) and how we might choose those Joy moments more often - and make our Joy List(s).⁣
⁣
My first Joy Quest was many years ago while I was on a retreat in Bali and it was such a powerful experience, so of course I wanted to share it this month with our theme ‘Energize’ because:⁣
⁣
JOY IS HIGH-ENERGY HAPPINESS⁣
⁣
And when we practice joy (and yes, it is a practice) regardless of our current circumstances and whether we are having a good or disastrous day .. we expand our awareness and appreciation of who we are and what we have .. without needing anything more. ⁣
⁣
And suddenly our joy expands!⁣
⁣
Joy is our choice.⁣
⁣
If you know me, none of these are going to surprise you, but here are three items from my Joy List (in no particular order):⁣
⁣
*Waking up to a beautiful blue summer sky and radiant sunlight⁣
⁣
*Chasing sunsets .. and taking a picture ⁣
⁣
*Meditation (of course) .. along with joy my daily practice brings me peace and stillness.⁣
⁣
Ok. Your turn!⁣

This Wednesday LIVE on Instagram at 9am (AEDT) our meditation practice will be the silent mantra ‘Sat Nam’.⁣
⁣
Considered a universal mantra that can be practiced by anyone, of any belief or experience, the words ‘Sat’ means truth and ‘Nam’ means name.⁣
⁣
This is often translated as ‘Truth is my essence’.⁣
⁣
An opportunity to PAUSE. REST. REFRESH.⁣
⁣
JOIN ME .. ⁣
⁣
* 5-10 min of introduction to our practice⁣
* 20 min meditation.⁣

Ahhh Sunday 🦆⁣
⁣
This morning was pure joy .. with an early morning walk around the lake, #albertparklake, a little summer sunshine and cool breeze, catchup time with my girlfriend, and watching all the gorgeous ducklings taking their own walk!⁣ followed by brunch and great coffee ☕️
⁣
A day to re-fresh and ENERGIZE.. which (😉 no surprise here) is our theme for this month in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ (online meditation membership).⁣
⁣
We have a whole month of meditation practices, mindfulness exercises and daily rituals that cultivate and nourish our life energy stores.⁣
⁣
Tomorrow morning members of ‘the Lounge’ will receive a Cultivating Energy Guided Meditation (audio on Soundcloud), a Mindfulness exercise called ‘Energizing or Depleting’ to find the energy-takers in daily life, and a wonderful ritual ‘Sparking Joy’ .. because joy is a powerful happiness-energizer!⁣
⁣
And February? Our theme is one of my favourites ... CREATIVITY 🦄 .. a month of practices to enhance and empower our innate creativity.⁣

I’ve been here .. I’m sure you have too .. only semi-present to a moment (or many moments).⁣
⁣
Being Un-Mindful.⁣
⁣
Often it’s not until later when you reflect back, or search for a memory, that you realize that you weren’t truly there.⁣
⁣
It’s not a nice feeling. Especially if it was a special occasion or a special memory .. now lost forever.⁣
⁣
This is why Mindfulness is such a beautiful practice .. because you sharpen your mastery of being fully present and realize that your awareness and attention is in fact a gift of love. Love given to the moment, to others and to yourself.⁣
⁣
But being a practice .. means that it takes practice. Sure you will forget, get distracted, fall into the habit again of being un-mindful which is why you also get to practice kindness (to yourself and others).⁣

Ayya Anandbodhi lived and trained as a nun in the Forest Tradition at Amaravati and Chithurst monasteries in England from 1992 until 2009, then moving to the US to help establish Aloka Vihara Forest Monastery, a training monastery for women. In 2011, she took full Bhikkhuni Ordination, joining the growing number of women who are reclaiming this path in the Theravada tradition.⁣
