Meditation Reflections

I need a spot to write about my experiences with meditation. A place to share YouTube videos, music, cool pics, etc. Even if no one replies, just have to get it all out. This space is perfect.

Lately has been a bit rough and meditation has been my go to. It's always such a journey to pull myself from mental mud. I go through these cycles of finding ME again. Have to satisfy the yearning for calming my chemistry, my brain. Remembering most of the answers are within and for the rest, you must trust the process. Things are much simpler than my complicated mind wants to believe.

It looks like Buddha is holding a pee pee stick but my morning meditations have been amazing. Creating mental space and detaching from all that doesn't matter is truly a slice of heaven. The mind is powerful. It deserves a break. Make room for better things.

Hello LibbyScorp,

Random.

Had a dream about this song but the lyrics were all backwards. Woke up with it stuck in my head like I could hear it.

What kind of corny 90s subconscious shtuff is this? Actually, I see why and I get the lyrics. But just strange it's THIS song. Haven't heard it for YEARS since it was playing on the radio every 20 minutes lol.

Thanks, Universe.

A 30 minute meditation for giving up control

And somewhere within the firey chaos of control, I lost contact with my truest self.
The need to tensely grasp at every situation with force made me disappear further into dark waters.
Spiraling down, down.
Down to rock bottom only to look up in despair with no possible sight of twinkling light from the sun above the water.

I was alone.
No one could help me.
For whatever reasons, it can take Earth shattering things, lost hopes and dreams to shake us back into realizing our existence again.

Surrender.
Like a fish out of water able to breathe into a whole new world.
Scared, excited, embrace it.
The sun is out again.
The light is back and it sheds warmth to all the possibilities.

"Under the obsessive thoughts and plans, under the emotions, positive and negative,
there is an ocean of peace." - Gangaji

I can see why, it's one of those things I see and think, 'Wish I'd thought of that!' (pesky ego, eh, whaddaya gonna do?). Particularly loving his blissed-out, beardy demeanour :laugh:

Sitting in gratefulness for this tool we have in meditation. The tool with enough power to help us see from a higher perspective. The ability to change the way we perceive and the actions we take for the better. What an honor it is to myself to sit in my sacred space surrounded by the things that have meaning. Taking a time out. From the mud of life below to the most joyous heights. Sitting back and detaching from it all. My chemistry, my brain, my soul, it hurts. My heart. I need this so bad right now. And it is always here. There is so much strength, grace and transformation occuring. All the hurt, I channel it into yoga, I meditate, I pray when I am overwhelmed. So much change. It's a period of centering myself. A time to focus more on breath and less on mental clutter. Taking care of my body from the inside out. Total nourishment bringing out glowing confidence. There is a mountain before me but I will conquer it. It won't always be so gloom. There is a shift in my life for new chapters. Just... Thank you.
