Week 31 Day 7

Medi object choiceless awareness
Intention to observe raw sensations

Morning all!  A brief practice of 30 mins today pre golf.

Noting began with a cycle and then a layering of the sensations from all the senses. This time I also included thinking as a sensation. I felt alert and calm today and very happy as I had interrupted sleep due to a very blocked nose which had cleared so I was marvelling at my clear air passages for a while!. Very positive vedana!

Thoughts came in about future plans but instead of dismissing them I allowed them to play through whilst acknowledging that I may have drifted.

Metta at the end was hard but seemed to be able to focus on my object for a few seconds at a time.

Sometimes ideas cone into my head whilst practising and it's a shame I don't have a pen to write them down...another lesson in staying present. Or perhaps I should? Will ponder...

Have a great day today, hoping for nice weather! 🐽💜🐽

31/7
