Week 3 Equanimity

"Equanimity is the art of meeting life as it meets you - calmly, without drama or fuss."



Congratulations! This puts you at one full hour daily of YOU TIME!
Week 3 asks you to look even more closely at your eating habits and portion sizes. You're asked to increase your meditation to 15 minutes and to extend your daily yoga practice to 45 minutes. I realize that your practice my include walking or some other activity. That's good! Just be sure you are putting aside the whole 45 minutes to do it in.
Law 7 Relax with what is. This law says it all to me. The other laws seem to reinforce this one. They all ask you to be present without judging or trying to control everything. Meditation helps with this. By being attentive to the present moment, those automatic responses can be replaced with space and time to react with clear view of what is real in this moment. Whether it's eating more than you need or reacting automaticly, being present to the reality frees you from the restraints of living in the confines of past memories and judgements.
Sometimes I am even a little deep for me!
How is it going? I'd like to hear from you.
As always, Sherry
