Week 32 Day 5

Medi object choiceless awareness
Intention to remain alert and receptive to all sensations

Afternoon all! Today 30 mins of noting and metta at the end.

Today I am lucky to be at home because of the tube strike. It's a sunny day but I'm indoors avoiding it because of work!

I began as always with focus on the breath and layered on other sensations. However today thoughts were prevalent so I let them happen whilst trying not to progress them and lose peripheral awareness. A thought about yesterday's  Bokwa class came up and I was about to try and remember the routine we went through! Nooo stop, not for meditation practice! Another time.

I did jot a couple of things down because I really needed not to forget them, which I often do after practice.

Metta was ok, I have been reading Salzberg's book and it's beginni4to make sense, although it's hard to believe the idea that of you have the intention of doing or feeling something in this case. .feeling the loving kindness feeling, you can keep going through the motions of the affirmations and eventually it will happen. More work required!

Ok time for lunch I believe...and maybe I will peek outside a bit! Have a great day! 🐽 💜 🐽
