meditation

The daily routines that we set up for ourselves can sometimes fall into the rut of only servicing our obligations and responsibilities. every morning I would wake up and go about my routine with a designated set of alarms to be a certain points. Wake up, shower, leave for work. these alarms would be set with built in buffers for when I would slept in or get distracted by emails. This would be my daily routine for any work morning.

While I have been on vacation here in Phoenix my morning have been a simple routine. I would wake up and have a cup of coffee (My friends have a wonderful fancy European style coffee machine) and then step out onto their patio and enjoy the morning sun. I found myself returning to some of my meditations and mantras. It has been a real joyous start to the day.

It is amazing how important ones spiritual foundation also needs to nurtured and fed. The connection to know when your path is heading in the right direction is not a roll of the dice but something that has to be filled with mindfulness. I hope this is something that I can work into my daily routine once I return to the daily rut.

But it is also important to accept and embrace the blessings that have recently come my way. But how to find the balance for all of this will need mindfulness.
