Heavily Meditated
by Wendy Silvers
"Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing
Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the Word "
~Cat Stevens
Welcome to the New Year! 2024 was a year for the books – the history books, that is. I submit that 2025 will also be filled with situations and opportunities guaranteed to test your spiritual mettle. To navigate these times, my sacred medicine is staying heavily meditated! Mostly outer eyes closed, sometimes eyes open, wherever I am. It is from that place and space within that I gather strength, discernment, and direction allowing peace, love and truth full sway. I am all in for being heavily meditated. Without a meditation practice, we are not operating in the world from our right minds. What we see in the outer world are most people operating from their reptilian brain, which is about survival. Without a daily practice of stepping away from the information overload of the world, fear can become your master and propel you to act in ways that are not kind and loving. My meditation practice mostly involves sitting in my meditation chair. Sometimes my bed, a parked car, or walking my dog are contemplative. When my daughter was a baby, I would meditate while I nursed her. And when she was a toddler, I would pull her onto my lap and take a few moments to lap up the precious stillness.
For my emotional and spiritual well-being, I choose to step out of time, circumstance, and personality and enter into a holy communion with the Divine. Meditation offers you a direct experience of the Infinite Presence revealing Itself in, though and as your consciousness. Meditation may look different for you. And that’s okay. You don’t have to sit cross legged on the floor for hours at a time. Cultivate a meditation practice that allows you to move beyond the monkey mind of thoughts that loop like the ticker tape crawl on mainstream media. There is an inner groove that you will fall into from having this practice, a sense memory, like a dancer or an athlete. It is so sweet. It doesn’t matter how you meditate as much as that you do meditate. Meditation allows you to, “spring fresh from the Word.” Affirmation: Today, I choose to cultivate a meditation practice that works for me, beginning right where I am.
With love, Rev. Wendy
