Affirmation for October 4, 2011: Meditate

My workout is my meditation. - Kyle MacLachlan 
Thought of the Day:
Many believe in the benefits of meditation - calming, relaxing, and a great way to organize our thoughts and emotions. A lot of people shy away from meditation due to it stereotype of sitting with our legs crossed, our hands in prayer position, and our voices saying "ommmm..." (Although, this technique does help with clearing the mind.) Meditation can come in many forms. Some of the greatest thinkers claim to meditate during a long run, hours gardening, or dancing. 
The goal is to clear our minds of the noise of our own thoughts and taking that moment to embrace the state of things now. There are so many benefits to meditation, it's hard to find a reason not to try it and see if it works. Take a moment today, and clear your mind. See if it helps with whatever it is you have to tackle.
Have a Great Day!
