Day 20 - It's not too late to join!

Welcome to the 20th Day of the Meditation Challenge.  I have heard from some of you who are getting along fine with your Meditation.  For others you might be struggling and please reach out and ask for help if you need it.  It is not too late to join in as we still have 20 days before 11/11/11. 
Remember that there is only NOW!  When we come up with excuses like 'I'm too busy', I'll start later etc it is our ego trying to block us, as it wants to stay in charge and doesn't like it when we start working on ourselves.  Because then we start to re-connect to the heart and follow the voice of the soul, rather than the ego.  Often when we start a commitment like meditation or going to the gym, after a few days there will be all kinds of things come up to prevent us from our goal - be aware, work through this and don't give up, bring yourself back into the NOW and start again.

  1. I am floundering-no doubt--feel bored and lots of anger coming up as I meditate. Don't intend to quit-so continuing. Interesting that Kundalini Yoga class on Sunday was about releasing anger!! Inspite of these feelings I do feel blessed and grateful to have your supportive emails, Marie. Would enjoy hearing from others. From what I have been reading and from what Marie says in her last email all we can do is be honest and express without shame or blame our shadow selves (ego). So here I am anger and all!! Lets' keep on going!!
