“I will take time to clear my mind… release any unimportant thoughts… then allow myself to be guided toward the best action I can take for today.” – Courage to Change 
This is the essence of meditation. Often it’s hard to hear anything kind, loving or positive above the chaos of my chattering thoughts. In these moments, I simply close my eyes, breath deeply, let go of everything in my mind – including my feelings – and allow them to melt away momentarily. I can then listen for (and hear) that still, soft life-loving voice inside of me. These 1 minute mini meditations help me find my way back to the path where ILML!
