Meditation - Day 6

Today i chose to bring mindfulness and awareness to an activity.  Since i had three hours of driving to do , meditating while driving seemed fitting.  I set the timer for 5 minutes, turned off the radio, and completely focused on the task at hand.

I tried to maintain even breathing, in through the nose and out through the mouth.  For the next five minutes, i concentrated as much as possible on the actual driving.  Feeling the vibrations in the steering wheel, hearing all of the random noises, eyes focused on either the road in front of me or one of my mirrors.

the Ripening, Meditation, mindfulness, driving


The five minutes seemed to go by really quickly.  Doing a quick mindfulness meditation while commuting to work might be something i try in the future.  It's a quick and easy way to incorporate mindfulness into my every day life.
