Slowing Down, Centering Down, Emptying
"It is astonishing how many people cannot, or will not, hold still. I could not, or would not, hold still for thirty minutes inside, but at the creek I slow down, center down, empty."
Mindfulness asks us to pause, notice, and be. Many resist this due to habit, discomfort, or a mind conditioned to constant motion. This reflects how challenging formal meditation or mindfulness practice can feel in typical settings where distractions, restlessness and judgment arise.
I find mindfulness meditation supports my intention for ....
- Slowing down and becoming present to each moment.
- Centering down and reconnecting with one’s breath, body, feelings.
- Emptying by letting go, opening to awareness without striving, if only for a moment.
