This Week's Reflection

 

How many time have I heard that "my meditation isn't delivering results"?

 

As a result of which, how many times do would-be practitioners fall by the wayside? Too many times.

 

Let's dwell on the science - decades of it. Let's remember that, every time that we sit down to formally meditate, we turn on our brain's Central Executive, the so-called Attentional Spotlight. Let's remind ourselves that, with each deliberate moment of practiced flow, neurons are reconfiguring, creating new connections, building new structures, even creating completely new pathways.

 

Let's never forget that each and every moment of meditation, regardless of the speed at which it delivers the results we expect, constantly and consistently builds a brain that enables your mind always put your best foot forward, always take a step in the right direction.

 

All that said, even when we get results and those results confirm the very real, tangible and practical benefits of meditation, how many times do we let our meditative practice slip?

 

All the more reason to consider what meditation is doing for you, here, now, in the real world.
