My Zazen Challenge

Re: My Zazen Challenge

I lost count a long time ago!

Any tips for doing zazen when traveling? I have a 2 week trip coming up and think I'm going to have to pay the bag fees so my zafu come with.

I wouldn't worry about bringing my zafu unless I knew I would be getting ample alone-time for formal practice. Since I usually travel with family or friends, I try to get some practice in when I find a moment alone. I'll do this sitting upright on the edge of a chair.

I am traveling solo for work. I will hopefully have a goodly amount of time in the AM to practice before meetings/conference sessions. I'm also going to do my first zazenkai one evening since I'll have the extra time.

Oh, then by all means...

Sadhu! (I don't yet know if there is a Zennie expression for this) Congratulations on your determination to the practice. All the best.

Gassho,

I'm trying to follow that old rule that it takes 3-4 weeks of consistently doing something for it to become a habit.
