'My roots, breath deeply. Keep me connected with the core of me.'
I just listened to a woman sing this mantra for 7 minutes while trying to stay on the breath.
The practice felt better today after the shambles that was my last post. Not that I care of course. I know that we all get days like this, days when nothing seems to work.
Today, was a different matter entirely. I felt a deep inner glow - whatever the hell that is - and a certain level of contentment. I'm not sure whether I liked practicing with the sing-song mantra of not. Something is telling me to breathe in silence, but I think I'll stick to the guided meditations for a while yet. I don't want to get ahead of myself.
During today's practice I did have some thoughts. Namely, the thoughts that arise in our head cause us to feel a certain way (negative/positive/indifferent) and then we as humans 'feel' that way. How are you today? I'm great! or I'm not too well today. Are we really great or negative or are these simply thoughts that have arisen and colored our perception soon to be replaced by a new sensation? I think they are.
I've read about this before, of course, but today I felt it for myself.
