Also, I think one of the things that make the practice so special is that it's something that I came up with for me, based on my own struggles to make it work. That is to say, this isn't the right way; it's just a way.
Yes of course! I just finding interesting to hear about other people's meditation rituals in the morning.
Quote:1. Get up and make coffee. Coffee is not an absolute requirement, but in addition to helping me wake up, it is a downright ritual at this point. I don't need it to get my day going, but I sure do like starting with it!
Same here! I don't need it but do like to start with it. =)
Quote:6. I ask for Confederation assistance with my meditation, usually from Laitos.
Why Laitos?
Quote:I do a cabalistic cross on my amen ("Ateh, Malkuth", etc.).
Why? What is your purpose with it?
Quote:9. This part I got from Jade. I then place my hands on my heart and say an affirmation, setting the intent for the day, whatever I want to work on that comes to mind.
How does this prayer usually go? What do you usually say?
Quote:10. I visualize the earth and send love and appreciation. When I'm at my best I really try to practice tonglen, the breathing in of suffering, pain, heat, uncomfortableness, stress, etc. and the breathing out of coolness, happiness, freshness, etc.
Is this a part of your Gaia meditation?
Sorry for the thousands questions! Thank you for sharing.
