They're not difficult. They are not foreign. They're part of me and valid. Thoughts on Breathing I don't like breathing. I don't like Anapanasati. Actually, I think it's a really boring practice. And I haven't yet figured out why people do it. Because it just seems to not be one that I like. Suggested Resources Book: Awakening Through Love: Unveiling Your Deepest Goodness by John Makransky App: Waking Up Bullying Story I have been bullied a lot throughout my life. That's been probably the one consistent theme. It started in my family, it kept going at school, and then it went all through work. And I think that I am a feminist, but I think there is something about women, that is not always kind. What I did is I put up with the bullying, and I applied my daily practices. So there's something called the 37 practices of a bodhisattva and I converted them into a phrasing. And I used to recite them every morning before my meditation practice. And that helped me. So if I wanted to bite back or bitch or whatever, that stopped me.
