Week 19 Day 5

Week 19 Day 5
Medi object choiceless
Intention to observe all sensations without vocalising

Morning all! Today's practice was 23 minutes noting. I started observing the breath and then quickly moved the sound of a woman on the phone enunciating slowly in a foreign language. Planning thoughts came in and I observed their content like a video. Sounds of whirring and the rumbling of the train were prevalent throughout. As we reached Acton Town I opened my eyes briefly and the sun shone brightly in the carriage. I listened and watched for a while until I disembarked to wait for my next train. The woman standing in front of the green blue painting was in front of me again. I tried to see what was on her pendant but couldn't get close enough. The drips of paint still irked me. I boarded the next train and got a single seat. The woman opposite me is either going to garden or work outside or has very dirty trousers on, make up - two rosy cheeks. I continued for a few minutes then sneeze alarm ended the practice.

Felt a bit weary today and not so alert, but still tried to keep the medi object in focus and all the other peripheral sensations in tact even though it didn't feel as together as it could be.

Sun's shining! Go out and get some rays! Have a good day and practice!
