Meditation

I've been getting a lot out of the meditation daily messages. Thanks, Indira! I also like the idea of setting small goals towards a larger goal. It helps me to stay in today, instead of worrying so much about tomorrow. 

I like to set my goals for the day, then, when I notice my mind going off into the future, it is easier to remind myself to just stay focused on my present task.

Sitting meditation helps me to see how much anxiety I have--that often I am staying busy because I am anxious, and this only increases the anxiety. It is not easy for me to sit, but it is a very useful practice. I don't so much like to watch my mind. Often my thoughts run away with me. But I am doing the sitting meditation anyway. Action by action. Step by step.
