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?⁣

[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.⁣⁣ ⁣

The culprit!⁣
⁣
This morning on the LIVE Mid-Week Meditation this one .. my best friend .. decided to start barking at some imaginary foe 🐶⁣
⁣
We were just settling into our posture and getting quiet ...⁣
⁣
When out of nowhere he started barking!⁣
⁣
Reminding me of that saying .. “ you should never work with animals or children”!⁣
⁣
Talk about being called into the present moment. I had to excuse myself for a moment .. to tend to the disruption. ⁣
⁣
Rest assured he did stay silent for our meditation practice.⁣
⁣
Like all distractions in meditation .. as a general guide .. allow some time and space for the distraction to dissolve and pass (most will do so naturally if you don’t put energy into them) and keep coming back to your focus (the breath or perhaps a mantra).⁣
⁣
But if a distraction is insistent (or urgent) you might acknowledge this and allow a moment to address the distraction, before returning to your meditation.⁣
⁣
Always coming back. Coming back. Coming back.⁣
⁣
This is our ‘practice’.⁣
⁣
Bless him .. he looks so cute and contented now. And all is quiet.⁣
⁣
⁣

Such a great reminder today. Currently we are all navigating what we need to hold onto or let go of.⁣
⁣
In my world of Seasonal Mindfulness, May is the final month of Autumn (southern hemisphere) and our tribe are exploring the lessons of Letting Go.⁣
⁣
We see nature releasing her foliage into the earth, to provide nourishment for the ‘inner’ work being done beneath the surface, and know that this will gift us new life in Spring. And so we listen to this wisdom and invite Letting Go into our meditation practice.⁣
⁣
Because in meditation we practice letting go - a lot.⁣
⁣
Realizing that we might be holding onto our busyness and our distractions .. we see if we can’t soften a little and let go.⁣
⁣
Holding onto our breath .. we see if we can’t soften and let go.⁣
⁣
Holding onto our need to control everything .. Holding onto our tightness and hardness our inner rigidity .. Holding onto our wants and habits …⁣
⁣
and gently seeing if we can’t soften and let go.⁣
⁣
In meditation we learn these vital ‘life skills’ .. so when we go out into the world we can appreciate that there at times we may need to hold on or let go.⁣
⁣
This is the wisdom of Autumn.⁣
⁣

Autumn. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Here in Melbourne we are now able to move outside a little more and so on Friday I escaped my local ‘hood’ for a day with a friend spent in Mother Nature.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
First a hike under the green cool forest canopy and then some sunshine and sea air in a small coastal town.⁣
⁣
Moments to BREATHE ... and moments that took my breath away.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Like this one solo yacht sailing into the afternoon sun.⁣
⁣
The Season of Autumn brings us many gifts and lessons: and in our online membership (The Seasonal Lounge) we are exploring the wisdom of Letting Go.⁣ Just as nature releases her foliage, so must we release what is worn and out grown.⁣
⁣⁣
Releasing what no longer serves.⁣
⁣
“You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” (Andre Hide)⁣
⁣⁣
Just as the yacht leaves the safety of harbor .. to sail the vast blue ocean.⁣
⁣⁣
You can find out more about my Seasonal Mindfulness Calendar .. and The Seasonal Lounge from my bio.⁣
