A Daily Practice

I am turning towards my month of teaching now. 

Have written out a daily practice for my students, working with the three principles in a simple way. 

Wanted to share it with all of you - b


A Daily Practice

Sit or stand by a window with pen and paper near by.
Look out in a relaxed way.

Note something that is seen in the sky, flying through or drifting in the space.
Write down what it is with a one line description.

Then note something that is on the ground or growing from the earth.
Describe this simply.

Wait until something small - a detail - draws your attention.
Describe this.

Lacework of branches against white clouds
Soft expanse of green grass not growing yet
Empty bird feeder waiting to be filled again.


Note at the end - and write about if you want - any feelings or insights that come from doing this.

  1. Having had a rough week, this looks intriguing.
    Will try it and be back in a few minutes.
    Thanks so much for sharing this practice with us.
