Day Nine: Stop & Settle Down

How can you pick your-self up when you haven’t even accepted that you are down, and how can you accept you are down when you refuse to stop running around? Be still, won’t you? "

It is so easy to get sucked into the overkill of information available to us! I can become a "phone zombie" in a second! It is the -new way of running around without even going anywhere. But we can adapt -if we want too. Today between the real-world hustle and bustle, excess mind media, & my phone I am making a conscious effort to stop and check that I am dealing with my life for-real!

The focus of today's meditation is Step 10 -We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. This step guides us to stop in our tracks, ask ourselves a few questions- like what's up with you the last 24 hours -how you doing -how you acting? How can we take care of ourselves, now?

P.S google the words Step 10 for a variety of reading literature info or ask a question in the comment box.
