This week's meditation we will focus on our monkey minds!
I have had a lot of people tell me that they absolutely cannot meditate because they have ASD or ADHD, or simply that they can't get their minds to calm down enough for meditation. This week we will talk specifically about what to do in these situations. Anyone can meditate, I promise!
Note:
We will meet at the shelter next to the playground at Laura Bradley Park. Meditation will start at 11:15, but I suggest you arrive on time so you can get comfortable. Bring a cushion, and a blanket if you feel you need it. If you forget, I'll have some available. Normally it is suggested to take your shoes off during meditation, but since we're outside you may choose to leave them on.
See you soon!
