Meditation: Day 9

Due to a massive headache, meditation took place lying down today. I listened to rain on my Calm app and counted my breaths. The counting really centers me and allows my mind to become clear. I had only a few wandering thoughts.

I've been reading Kate Hudson's book, Pretty Happy. It's nothing revolutionary. It's exactly what you would expect a celebrity to tell you: get in tune with your body, eat clean, spend your days moving your body in ways you love, be mindful. I get it, and I'm partially invested. At this point, I just like reading different perspectives on how to love your body and become mindful.

I believe more in the Geneen Roth approach to eating, which is - eat what your body tells you it wants until it tells you it's done. As far as movement, Kate Hudson did remind me how important it is to love what you're doing, and she also put a bug in my brain about doing different types of movements, so I'm going to start looking into some dance videos to add to my elliptical and yoga routine.
