First Step: Focus
Well, after that spooky Halloween softened by lovely pumpkins from Nellie, I think we should be MINDFUL of just BEING and try to practice a little ZEN like these pooches.
I, of course, practice ZEN all day long even when others are losing their minds around me and whizzing around like crazed weasels. Hey, piece of cake.
This is what I do.
Focus: Stare into space until your eyes half close (see above).
Still staring, remove all stress from your little pea brain, lie down on your side and think of…zilch.
When that doesn’t work (as it often doesn’t), think of not thinking of anything. Often this works.
Put the tongue behind the front fangs and breathe in to count of 8. Hold for 3 seconds. Breathe out forcefully, as in whoooosh!
Repeat.
WHOOOOSH!
Good, good, you are doing fine, but if these do not work, you are simply not a candidate for ZEN living and will spend the rest of your life free from trying to empty your mind and body of any sensations
Good for you! Cuddles will be enhanced and food will taste better and you will sleep like a baby, whatever that is.
But I can’t get my stare to go away!
You do seem to have it mastered.
Hey, I am total ZEN all day long.

Well, what a nice compliment but of course you know that I direct ALL the shots!
Oh, Kitty,
What big eyes you have. I slipped into a Zen trance after I placed my tongue behind my fangs. Pardon moi, I mean teeth.
Any way, when I came out of the trance my mind was/is blank. Are there Mantras to return my memory?? Your Force is too strong for beginners…..
Ha Ha, just kidding.
Love your wit.
Sandra
Oh, Sandra, you are a card, as mama’s grandmamma used to say. But mama does use that behind the teeth thing to go to sleep at night. Breath in, breath out, breath in…zzzzzzz
I did try it, it is very relaxing. Thank you Sweet Kitty.
Hugs.
Did you Zen or Sin? HAHA
Hey! Who are you calling a pea brain? You have really mastered your stare.
Yes, my stare is often stuck, but sometimes it is appropriate. Pea-brain is only a self-effacement tactic when actually I am thinking quite a lot.
