Week 1, Smile, explored opening up to goodness, and intentionally creating space for it. Week 2, Tip of the Nose, explores focused attention and all of the “noticings” that this stability provides.
Actually, each meditation this week considers relationship. What appears when we combine mind + breath, stability + curiosity, inner + outer? Put any two things together and lots of interesting awarenesses arise… similarities, differences, or new qualities as a result of blending the two. What happens when we meet our distractions with a smile (distractions + smile)? Plenty!
Coming back to the present moment again, returning to the breath, returning your attention to the tip of the nose – it opens you up to greater meditative perception and all of the delightful relationships that are inherently at play. May it be so.
Happy meditating!
