Daily Awareness

Putting Meditation into Practice

(Adapted from an idea by Steve Andreas in his book Six Blind Elephants)

At the end of the second class the following practice exercise was set up.

Each day ask yourself the following question: 

“What would I do differently today if I was living more consciously and experiencing more prana, or as if I was living more consciously and experiencing more prana?” 

Among all the things that come to your mind, choose the smallest, most minimal but concrete thing and put it into practice. Every day, choose a small but concrete thing as if you had already started building more prana and as if you were already experiencing greater consciousness, and voluntarily put it into practice. Every day choose something different.

I love this idea of a daily awareness meditation. It adds such a wonderful element to being mindful and living right in the now. Thanks for a brilliant idea and I'll give it a try first thing in the morning. much appreciated.
