Meditation Sits In Me

A poem.

Dr. Hanna Chusid Ed.D., MINDFUL SELFCARE™/ Lic.Psychologist/ Resilience and Compassionate Leadership Coach/ Meditation ~Yoga Teacher/ ONLINE/ drhannachusid.com

Meditation is a practice of cultivating innermost listening, a receptivity to the subtle and what is. Once in a while, in pre-dawn early morning, grace descends with the dew. Then, I do not sit in meditation; meditation sits in me.

Night sits inside of me ~

Cricket chant

Bird trills

golden green parrot Wings flutter

The Little One wakes at Dawn

Whispering Her secrets:

Bless This Day

“People look for retreats for themselves, in the country, by the coast, or in the hills . . . There is nowhere that a person can find a more peaceful and trouble-free retreat than in his own mind. . . . So constantly give yourself this retreat, and renew yourself.”
