Day Six: Lightening Up - Letting Ho While Doing More Clutter-Clearing
I am safe and centred no matter where I am
I chose to do Level 2 today. I must say that I wasn't really in the mood for Soul Coaching today. I tried the mediation Denise Linn suggests, but I find still meditation to be so very difficult. My mind likes to follow paths, so when I do meditate (which isn't often) I choose spoken meditations because then at least my brain has something to do.
I did Schedule Time to Relax - I watched Sex and the City The Movie on DVD (love it!) and went to a 2 hour writing session with some local people also involved in NaNoWriMo. Finding time for myself is not something I struggle with. As a matter of fact I get tired of self development books saying "make time for you" and "when was the last time you did something for you?" or "when was the last time you were alone?" I am alone with myself all the time. Sometimes I am completely and utterly sick of my own company! I understand these statements are targeted usually at women with children, but still.
There is more clutter clearing I could do and I am hoping to shake this mood and be more interested in clearing my desk space tomorrow. For now, I think I'll go to bed.

Oh how healing it is for me to read that I am not the only one tired of being alone. I'm alone a lot and it isn't easy. I get sick of me too. Even though I am alone, I don't always put myself first and am trying to do that.
Meditation isn't easy. It's OK to let the mind wander. Let it wander so your spirit has a chance to breathe. I highly recommend the book "Wherever you go there you are" by Jon Kabat-zinn. It was very liberating for me for meditating.
Hugs to you!
I spend alot of time alone too, and really resonate with your post. Thanks.
I understand the lonliness--I often feel like an island because I work from home. Sometimes the last thing you want is more alone time with your thoughts!
I find certain kinds of meditation really difficult as well, sometimes it can be more frustrating than calming. I like guided meditations or I'll write my own,record them and use those. That way I can really develop my mental images and craft the "journey" to my own needs. I would recommend it to anyone! :)
Thank you for sharing.~*
