This post is fantastic because it shows that the way you meditate is the way that works for you and when you do it your way the result is one that fits.Kaitlyn S.

I've never formally meditated at least I don't think so. I know I go into a trance of sorts when I am walking or cleaning out the thoughts in my head.. I am fascinated by your experience and keen sense of self-awareness.brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480258485472568272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24806308.post-90000176673535591302012-02-22T10:53:23.755-08:002012-02-22T10:53:23.755-08:00Hi Kari,

Self-observation is paradoxical in that the minute we let go of our fears, anxiety, conflicts and other difficulties, and relax into the moment, everything changes. We find peace and balance and composure in it, and soon we find ourselves in Nirvana.<br />RajiRaji Lukkoorhttp://rajilukkoor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24806308.post-23812324223060427242012-02-22T09:04:11.725-08:002012-02-22T09:04:11.725-08:00How fascinating!

I love the awareness you had not only of your thoughts, but of your body...<br /><br />"Simply knowing is enough". Ah...I breathe with you.<br /><br />Thank you.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491976434541893350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24806308.post-10592035440673876522012-02-21T16:07:24.733-08:002012-02-21T16:07:24.733-08:00Dear Kari,

I've been self-aware for much of my life, but that awareness was always accompanied by self-judgment. Most of the time I found myself having fallen short of the standard I set for myself. Only in the past years have I embraced the Dee Ready--of past and present . . . and future in that I embrace the possibilities life is offering me. Thank you for these wise words.<br /><br />Peace.Dee Readyhttp://www.cominghometomyself.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
