Yes! I do.
Btw: I listen to that song a lot ( sitting on the dock of the bay)..
I meditate, practice mindfulness. I love reading.. find it very relaxing, painting is not relaxing, I get so tense trying to get things just right... I find singing very relaxing and am going to try and join a Choir somewhere !! Peace, peace in our hearts, our minds, our homes.... outside , everyone seems in a hurry where I live, frenetic driving, bipping horns, anxious, unhappy, and I feel peaceful and not hurred. I love Gershwin Rhapsody in Blue and others,,, really chills me out. Good blog
I likes the last song too. G! You has good taste. You remines me, of me...
"...often (the) mind is like a bunch of wild monkeys..." << I really like this!
The amount of chatter that can develop in there... "I should have done this" ... "what happened to that?" ... "if this then that" ... "what if..." ... "why not..." ... and all of this ... sometimes, all happening at once.
It's smart to calm the chatter... to put your brain in an empty room and allow the mental conversations to use up their words and fade away.
What does you mind say when no one else is talking? ... I wonder how many consider this... how many know about this... and if some know about it but are afraid of what they might hear.
Every day I spend time relaxing and chillin! When weather is nice outside, I set outside and listen to music. It really relaxes me.
I only know of one way to turn off the mind and that is to meditate.
And even then the mind well tell us I must do this and that I want this and that not to talk about the me.
I have have posted a forum about taking the back seat and just enjoy the ride.
For myslef meditation is just that I am in the back seat , there is no I or me .
One is just looking and listening.
Have we ever try looking without the I or me ? And how many times have we listend without Me or I.
The BRID once said my music might sound like hot air only I am taking this one note to see where it is going.
After reading this I understand the Brid music alot better
I try listen without the Me or I.
Walk good my friend...
Relaxing is the best of all!
Although I mostly like my work very much, I enjoy the relaxing moments most, even if these might be quite short at times..
I had an uncle in Germany, and he always used to say: sleeping is also a kind of work. It would prepare our mind and body for the next day,
Well, I would never think so far on my own..
Have we ever ask our-slefes what is the mind how does it work ?
The mind is telling us all the time what to do or not to do
what to think and what not to think.
How many of us know our mind ? When was the last time you ask your-slef why a my thinking like this.
In many ways I cant talk for you. I only know what I have learnd from meditation where in one will come face to face with one-slef
And in this confrountion with one-slefes the mind plays a big part
Not many of us like to confrount one-slef
WHY???
We are always looking outside ,when was the last time we take the time to look at our-slef this does not have to be a confrountion
one could just look.
walk good my friend..

Allowing time for sleep is important ... allowing the body and mind to regenerate ...
<< perhaps? ... or possibly just a foil hat to keep the brain scanners out ...
I think we're safe for now
