Here’s your Shelter-in-Place challenge. You’ve always wished you had more time to meditate longer each day. Here’s your opportunity to up your game.

If you’re used to meditating 20 minutes, going to 30 can feel like an eternity. But try it for a few days, your mind will adapt and you’ll find it much easier to continue that length in the future. Work your way up to 45 and you’ll be ready for that retreat that’s been floating around in the back of your mind. It might be a while before we can do that but at least you’ll be ready!

If you’re up for it try a personal half or full day retreat. Here’s a link to a couple sample schedules. You can find more on line.

Have fun!

For those who see the value in a meditation retreat but can’t find the time.

Just as a white summer cloud, in harmony with heaven and earth, freely floats in the blue sky from horizon to horizon following the breath of the atmosphere - in the same way the pilgrim abandons himself to the breath of the greater life that... leads him beyond the farthest horizons to an aim which is already present within him, though yet hidden from his sight.
