On Meditation - Ep187
In this walking podcast, I outline some very basic ideas behind meditation. For some, meditation can be a daunting or challenging task; I offer a simple structure that can help it feel more productive. It is also important to be gentle with ourselves when we are learning something new; it is very rare that anyone can do a new thing at an accomplished level without experience or training.
Some would offer that long solo rides are meditation; I would submit that these activities are meditative, but they are not meditation. There is a difference between regulating our emotional state and managing our internal kingdom.
You don’t shower once in your life and then it’s done, we shower every day, more or less. The same can be said of cleaning our mental and emotional space. Meditation is a powerful tool for purpose. In fact, it is the proper tool for this job.
