The morning felt good. There was something in the air that had me eagerly reaching for my meditation chair. Yes, I am a chair meditator, and sometimes, quelle horreur! I meditate in my bed as well.
I made an early discovery that meditating on hard surfaces was not for me. On trying it initially, I spent more time concentrating on the aches and pains of having my body on a hard floor than enjoying the meditative process.
Many of us have tried meditation and we look at other practitioners sitting with erect spines on highly polished wooden floors or on large rocks facing expansive bodies of water and we admire and marvel and think that that represents a true meditator. I beg to disagree.
A true meditator is one who can get quiet and go within using whatever means to get there. Some people are able to get into contact with their Higher Selves through walking, or gardening, or knitting, or even washing dishes.
There is no right or wrong in this thing, it’s personal. Do whatever that allows for the connection to Self.
So, yes, I grab my favourite chair, turn it just so to face the rising sun and I sit. With the cushions feeling so delicious under my bottom, I set my intention and slowly sink into bliss with a smile on my face.
