Day 1

I started my meditation today.

I listened to this guided meditation.
I burned some sage like a smudge stick. That always makes me feel connected to my country.

My mind drifted at times, but it was ok. I was surprised that I opened up so much in ten minutes.

Because I like to be kind of creative, I've decided to add one of my pictures to each day's meditation. Today, I added the main photo to this blog - the fish that hangs from the roof of a temple. I love that story. It's sad but touches my heart. I'll have to look for it.

Also, to help me, I've found this list of Zen Koans. It also has them in Spanish, so I'm going to read them in Spanish first, and if I don't understand them, I will read them in English. It's a good way to practice my Spanish I think!
