My Sacred Life Sunday: Stillness Expanded
Creating time for stillness has been a challenge lately. Life is a flurry of activities and I'm finding myself sinking into the habit of feeling as if there is no time for the important things, like meditating.
This weekend, I made it a point to do it despite the pressures my schedule seemed to impose on my brain. What I discovered is what I always learn when I take time to be still and breathe - taking time to be still somehow creates greater space and time throughout the day.
Its like some alchemical quantum phenomenon. Somehow the hours in a day stretch a bit more, life goes by at a more spacious pace, and I'm able to be productive in a steady, centered and unfrenetic manner.
So this is my returning this weekend. Returning inward to time out, time to just Be, being still for some unspecified time, allowing the alchemy of meditation and breath to take place within and without me.
I send you all much peace and love today,
e





Thank you for this reminder, dear one - I will go sit in peace for awhile before I continue with my day.
Much to catch you up on.
I hope you are well and in the flow.
Much love,
Leslie
p.s. your blog is looking beautiful :)

Ah ... just the reminder I need right now. I was so busy this weekend I didn't get around to my Sacred Life Sunday post for the first time since I started blogging about 6 months ago. I'll go sit in peace for a while ...
Hugs and blessings,
