Do you know this book?⁣ ⁣ I love this book.⁣

Do you know this book?⁣
⁣
I love this book.⁣
⁣
Inside the cover I see my handwriting .. Christmas 2012.⁣
⁣
I have dipped into and dug into this little book many times over the years because it holds juicy magic and wondrous reminders of living well.⁣
⁣
‘How to Train a Wild Elephant .. and other adventures in Mindfulness’ is by Jan Chozen Bays.⁣
⁣
Today I am relishing the Spring sunshine and quiet household .. I’ve been very productive and still found a few moments to sit in the garden and pick up this book which holds 53 Mindfulness exercises .. one for each week of the year!⁣
⁣
I think this is where I gained an appreciation for committing to a practice each week .. which is the format we follow in ‘the Seasonal Lounge’ online membership.⁣
⁣
~ A weekly meditation practice.⁣
~ A weekly mindfulness exercise.⁣
~ A weekly ritual.⁣
⁣
On Mon. 2nd November we begin our theme of CONNECTION .. cultivating a deeper sense of connection with ourselves and others.⁣
⁣
Our focus will be on Loving Kindness Meditation.⁣
⁣
**Jan Chozen Bays MD is a meditation teacher, and abbess of Great Vow Zen Monastery in Oregon. She is also an author, a pediatrician, a wife, a mother, and a grandmother.⁣

Congratulations Victoria!⁣
⁣
Excellent job Melbournians 🎈⁣
⁣
I always feel incredibly grateful for this life .. but this morning those feelings of joy and happiness and connection were even more overwhelming.⁣
⁣
I am so proud to be a part of this community and of the Aussie spirit .. and the positive outcome achieved in this challenging time.⁣
⁣
We can now clearly see the Universal law of ‘cause and effect’ in action - two days of ZERO in Victoria (the UK reported 19,000+ cases and 151 deaths yesterday).⁣
⁣
We took the tough action - and we got the results. AND we can continue to take personal steps to support this continued outcome (it’s in no way over).⁣
⁣
And then this morning .. walking the cliff tops with a friend, listening to the powerful wind whip up the Bay, taking a moment to pause for a smile, a nod or a short conversation in the sunshine, watching people gather (safely and with masks), dogs playing boisterously in the sand .. there is a palpable shift in energy and a sense of well earned freedom!⁣
⁣
Feeling blessed. 🙏🏼⁣

I have been Spring cleaning and reorganizing the online Quiet Mind Library this morning.⁣
⁣
And letting subscribers know about the two resource sections that are currently listed for viewing and listening pleasure (both hold video content):⁣
⁣
*Meditative Exercises - small investment of time for powerful de-stressing and nervous system calming⁣
⁣
*Guided Meditations - inviting you to sit a little longer and dive a little deeper. Guided practices that allow you to pause, rest and refresh.⁣
⁣
GYM for the mind⁣
⁣
Almost like starting a new fitness program at the gym: you start with the lighter more manageable weights (Meditative Exercises) and build your understanding and ability through repetition and consistency. ⁣
⁣
Gradually you shift onto longer periods of weightier practice (Formal Meditation) and begin to experience significant results both in the gym and out in daily life⁣
⁣
Together, you build cumulative benefits.⁣
⁣
The Quiet Mind Library if FREE.⁣
⁣
Just subscribe via link in bio.⁣
⁣
There are currently four video practices listed .. and loads more to come.⁣

“Eventually everything connects - people, ideas,

“Eventually everything connects - people, ideas, objects. The quality of the connections is the key to quality per se.” Charles Eames⁣
⁣
You know those moments…⁣
⁣
~ when you see someone you have been thinking about⁣
⁣
~ or the phone rings with news you have been hearing in your dreams⁣
⁣

Recently .. lots of ladybugs appearing in my world

Recently .. lots of ladybugs appearing in my world.⁣
⁣
It’s been such a busy couple of weeks that keeping mindful is challenging .. until those moments when Mother Nature gifts is something awesome and captivating .. like this little ladybug that slowly crept across my hand resting in the sun. 🐞 ⁣
⁣
Ladybugs are often symbolic of good fortune, great luck, protection and that positive transformations are on their way.⁣
⁣
Love these little mindful reminders.⁣

This morning I shared a Root Chakra Meditation.⁣

This morning I shared a Root Chakra Meditation.⁣
⁣
The first chakra ‘Muladhara’ is the energy centre that is primarily concerned with our ability to survive through our fight or flight response. ⁣
⁣
When the Root Chakra is open, aligned and fluid we feel safe, fearless, with less worry or anxiety. When blocked we might feel depleted, hopeless or lonely.⁣
⁣
This beautiful quote speaks to the Root Chakra (and its Rumi .. and I love the wisdom of Rumi!).⁣
⁣
And this quote reminds us that we can often get caught up in the gathering and storing of materialistic ‘things’ in our search for happiness .. the car, the house, the clothing .. none of which are likely to bring lasting happiness. ⁣
⁣
That the true source of happiness comes from our sense of connection with ourselves and others. ⁣
⁣
And just like we see in nature .. a storm may rip a branch from the tree but with a deep and foundational root system .. there will be new growth.⁣
⁣
The Root Chakra is the foundational chakra .. on which all of our journey through the other six chakra’s depends.⁣
⁣
We can support the Root Chakra by walking barefoot on the earth, by visualizing the spinning red energy vortex at the base of the spine .. and by silently repeating the bija mantra LAM.⁣
⁣
Next week in the LIVE guided meditation – Wednesdays at 9am aedt – we shall meditate with the Sacral Chakra .. the energy centre of emotions, creativity and joy.⁣

So much time seemingly available in this new isola $So much time seemingly available in this new isolation-world .. and yet I’ve seriously never been so busy.⁣ ⁣ 🐶 adding a new puppy to the mix has not helped .. I’d forgotten that it’s almost like having a new baby (and we are all slightly fractured and sleep deprived).⁣ ⁣ Then this morning was my forward planning day .. and not only did it dawn on me that Christmas is on the horizon, but updating my calendar with some new programs .. I realized that November is almost fully booked and that includes something on every weekend!⁣ ⁣ 🤔⁣ ⁣ But it’s also exciting times .. as the McLean Meditation Institute seven-day Intensive retreat is being offered for the first time fully online!⁣ ⁣ As a course advisor I’ve been helping a beautiful group of NEW Australian and New Zealand meditation teachers on their journey through this 200hr Meditation Teacher Certification, throughout the iso-lockdown period. ⁣ And now that we are unable to gather in-person for the requisite seven day Intensive Retreat .. normally held in Sedona, California, Ireland, or London .. instead we shall NOW gather together for a sacred online Intensive experience 🙏🏼⁣ ⁣ And with students attending from across the globe .. it’s been fun (not quite) working out time zones to ensure we are all at the right time and place together!⁣ ⁣ So I’m going to be relying on my self-care practices - meditation - to get me through November, before barreling straight into December/Christmas madness!⁣ ⁣ If you are interested in Meditation Teacher Training or would simply like to learn how to meditate - before the silly season begins - make sure your on my Quiet Mind Newsletter list (the Nov edition is going out end of this week).⁣ ⁣ And just breathe. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #meditationclassonline #mcleanmeditationinstitute #meditationpractice #onlinesangha #onlinemindfulnessprogramı #justbreathe #bethepeace #retreat #refuge #meditateinmelbourne #meditationbayside #sandringham #leaduptochristmasbegins #learntomeditatemelbourne #corporatemeditation #lifeskill #selfcaredaily ⁣$
