1. Common Contexts

Incomplete Conceptions

• Rigidity and perfectionism
• Focus is on the the sitting
• It has to be the same every day, day after day, forever

Our Additions

• Gentleness
• It’s all about when we’re not sitting
• Whatever it takes to make sure there’s space to get more coming through

2. Our experience

• Why we began meditating
• Practice ups and downs
• Creativity – listening for what’s appropriate
• Current practices

3. Benefits

• Living meditatively – the crowbar (aka mindfulness)
• Attention – access to having more of a say over where I direct my attention
• Discipline
