Kiss My Zen: Meditate... NOW!!!

Ahh, the world is ever changing. It moves, it sways, it pushes you down to the ground. Let's chat about meditating for a bit. Now, a lot of people assume that to meditate you have to go through some sort of ritual. That you must shave your head, buy cool orange robes, light smelly goody stuff, and sit for hours on end. Well, you are right... and wrong. If you choose a certain path then all the fun ritual stuff can certainly be part of that journey for you. Now if you are like me (super/hyper-type A, with a touch of OCD--with an ADD cherry on top)... the ritual stuff might not be the best way to go.

Meditating is just finding stillness in any moment. You can do a simple ritual (light a candle, incense, etc), or have no ritual except for sitting in peace. You can make it what you will, do not let others dictate your path. Do what feels right. The biggest thing is just finding the time to do this meditating thing. MAKE TIME. Stress is killing us. We cannot afford not to let go of the stuff that worries us.

Even if you have 5 min while sitting on the toilet (sorry for the graphic, but you get my point).

I'm going to post some specific guided meditations for you soon in the form of a vlog.. so stay tuned!!!

Much love to you all... and.... KISS MY ZEN!!!!
