| Introduction | When my beloved dog Snuffy had to be put down last summer, I was amazed to discover how the practice of meditation helped in dealing with grief. I knew it was doing good things for my peace of mind, but I had no idea it would prove actively useful in getting through difficult days. And so I conceived of this blog: not only to share my own experiences, but to ask others who meditate how the practice folds in to their lives. How do they make it work? What differences have they noticed in themselves since they started to meditate? I have only been sitting for about five years now. I am very much a novice, wrestling with monkey mind or sleepiness, and I am very curious about the process. I am a member of Long Beach Meditation in Southern California. I promise to be as honest as I can, because I believe that the more specific the story, the more universal its appeal. I invite you to share my journey with me; my hope is that we will learn from each other and grow. |
