Thanks to Alex for leading DPX last Sunday with a wonderful full body scan. Starting with an image of “Everything being pushed out your feet, while white light comes in with positivity”. Much of the group discussion that followed centered around the benefits of meditating with your eyes open. Beth spoke of doing Metta on the T and driving with eyes open. Sam spoke of things in life being a flow practice, methodical, mindful, repetition. Rob mentioned how “thinking of your meditation as unsuccessful is a judgement, and that judgement is the problem. Awareness of the drifting mind, is being aware, and that is the point… not the judgement.” Ray commented that “the act of coming back to focus on the breath has the most lasting benefit.” Barbara spoke of “setting an intention every day to be more aware, knowing she will fail, but using it as a practice of forgiveness.” Bob commented “I no longer rush for anything (except work). Things break down – things happen. I’ll get there when I do.”
