sipping on it

6:03 AM // Day 2

Meditation Time: 30 min. 

  So super yummy cozy in bed this morning, my body wrapped in dreams and needing extra sleep. I hit the pillow before midnight (I think) which is pretty good for me, but it also lends me a solid excuse for talking myself out of meditation in the early hours. I heard myself say "I can't" but quickly managed to change it to, "I can." And I did eventually, but not without first promising myself a cuppa tea. 

  Note to self: Drink ALL your tea before engaging in meditative activities, otherwise your one pointedness on deep, still, profound inner things will undoubtedly be interrupted by thoughts of hot milky sweet tea growing cold on the hutch at your side.

  Observation: My shoulders were tight, I couldn't stop writing blog posts in my head and when I lit my candle this morning, I was hyper aware of how much desk clutter I had to dig through to find my lighter and the small piles of dust that really aren't serving me.  

  But ya know what? It's all okay, because ya know why? When I did finally sit down at 6:03AM, hot tea distractions, clutter piles, lack of sleep and all - THERE WAS A SMILE ON MY FACE GLOWING FROM EAR TO EAR!  I got there, I was sitting in place, I was giving it to myself. Two days in a row!

Do you know what an accomplishment that is? 

No small steps here, that's what I say. 

Cheers!
