Meditation: Day 20

I'm learning to let go of the "shoulds" of meditation. I had an idea in my mind that I "should" sit perfectly still during meditation and not move a muscle. But I'm finding that it's OK to shift around. It doesn't ruin the experience. I say this in my yoga classes all the time, and now I'm learning to listen to myself. If something doesn't feel right - stop doing it!

I've really been enjoying this meditation experiment. I will definitely continue past the 21 days. I think it's become an essential part of my daily routine. It's important for me to slow down and just notice the breath. Especially at times when my mind is racing - like these past few days!

Tomorrow marks the final day of my 21 day meditation journey and I think I'm going to stop posting daily and move down to one post a week for the next 21 days.
