Week 28 Day 5

Medi object choiceless awareness
Intention to remain alert

Afternoon all! Today 30 mins noting and 10 mins mindful watching.

It's a sunny day and my last day in the office this week. My friend came round to fit another two eyelets on the wall and I was wondering if I could have done it myself? Maybe next time!

I started my practice with a cycle of breath, hearing, looking and feeling. Two people speaking Eastern European language boarded at the next stop so there was a hum of chatting in the background for this part of the journey. The sun was bright and shone on my eyelids. A man sat next to me overflowing in the seat. I felt awkward and noted my irritation. Another chap sat next to me on his mobile phone. Another irritation.

The train was a bit emptier as it was later. I was tired today and felt a bit of nodding. This will be the way for this time of  my 'woman's condition'....

I decided to walk to the back of the train so that I could go to Starbucks and realised it is actually closer to the office by a smidgeon 😅

For the last portion of the journey, I was engaged in mindful watching of a mother and her two children, one in a buggy and one walking.  The frazzled mother was busy attempting to keep the two happy and they were each eating a breadstick. Seems such a nightmare having to travel with two children, buggy and all the paraphernalia!

The sun's out, I must post this now...hasta luego! 🐽💜🐽🌞
