Everyday
The actions, movements, thoughts, behaviors that we do daily, routinely; what is typical in our everyday.
Humans don’t care for upsets to the day to day program, including ‘time off’. Frustration, anger, high blood-pressure, depression, anxiety, and dogged tiredness often occur when our daily routine is upset.
However, it is a perfect time to practice spiritual discipline. To take a deep breath (or two or three), to take action or to be still, to relax into the moment as is possible…to allow.
Stuck in traffic? Practice patience. Waiting in a slow line at the store? Smile. Impatience and a scowling demeanor will accomplish nothing, save to make misery company.
I invite you this week into the practice.
