Ever since I completed The Sacred Alone ecourse with Susannah Conway about two weeks ago, I set the intention to meditate more. I’ve been wanting to add this practice to my life for a very long time.
Well, how interesting when you set an intention and if you are open, signs will pop up here, there and everywhere to remind you.
After I set the intention, a day or two later my friend Shannon sent me a 21-day free meditation happening with Deepak Chopra and Oprah. I signed up and it begins April 14th. Then I found a website called Calm where you can download a timer and beautiful scenery to your ipad and/or phone to help you meditate. I love doing this one at night.
Two days ago animal communicator, Simonne Lee sent out a note via LinkedIn asking if others meditate with their pets. I wrote back that I’d just begun meditating more with my dachshund in the room with me. She wrote back, “Most animals love our energy when we meditate. It allows them to connect with us on a deeper level. Once you practice this with awareness – you can feel what they’re feeling.” Well, that is certainly reason enough for me to want to keep meditating!
Friday I listened to a replay of Coach on Call with Cheryl Richardson where she was advising a caller to meditate and it will very likely change her life.
Next onto my radar, which was today, from writer coach, Cynthia Morris is Insight Timer. Here you can keep on track with your meditating with people from all around the world. I just did 20 minutes of meditating with a bell that chimed to begin and chimed when I was done. Then I clicked on my phone and saw who all meditated with me during that time, which was 237 other people from around the world. Now that was very cool.
Then I remembered as I got ready to write this post a photo I had taken of Gidget last week, which is the one above. Of course, my meditating buddha dog was sending me another message that yes, I need to keep up my meditation practice. Set the intention and watch the magic unfold!
Speaking of meditating or communicating with our pets, just a reminder of the free teleseminar I am doing with animal communicator, Dawn Baumann Brunke tomorrow evening. There is still time to register and join us on the call! If you can’t make the call, I will be sending out the recording to all those who register.
