Caught up on demand and completed and boy did I need this talk. My head has been all over the place while sitting the last few months, not so much summoning thoughts but constantly getting ensnared, entrapped and entangled. So after the lesson and the rest of the session I went back to basics with a bit of counting and then following breaths just to get centred, what ever that means ! So I did a couple of slow 1 - 10s counting on the inhalation and after that it all went pear shaped and my thoughts were back in the clouds. Then that one deep sigh revealed the blue sky for a fleeting moment. Anyway that and the general conversation topic made me think of this ..................
