Did you meditate today?

There is always time to meditate. Meditation is the only way to get to know your true self. Can you find five minutes to turn off the phone, close the laptop and get comfortable in a quiet space. Close your eyes and just observe the breath. If your mind wanders it is OK. Just gently bring your focus back to the breath. Notice the breath at the tip of the nose. I observe a short breath going in and I observe a long breath going out. It is simple to do. Do you notice a spot where you feel tension such as behind the eyes or shoulders? Is your stomach tight? Just let yourself relax each area while exhaling and those areas will loosen. There is no objective, no goal to reach. Just keep it simple and relax.
