About this episode
This episode focuses on cultivating calmness through awareness of the present moment and connection to nature.
Another Meditation only today. The perception zone is our nexus in space and time. We need to be aware of our presence in the space around us, and we also need to be aware of the passage of time. When we're in nature, this gets switched on. Walk into a forest, especially if you're alone, especially if there's low visibility, and you will be plugged into your environment, receiving all of that sensory information and processing it in a natural way. Fast forward to the modern world. We're on autopilot all day in our minds, trying to solve problems. There's an overwhelming stream of information, and we ask ourselves, where did the day go? In the meditation this week, we're training ourselves to become aware that we're here in our environment, aware of the passage of time. This is the power of the perception zone. This is the power of now. https://meditationcourse.live
