You might know very well that meditation is good for you, and that you want to sit regularly, yet we easily start to see formal practices as some kind of chore or obligation.
Meditation can become just another thing on the endless to-do list, instead of what it really is: a profound gift to oneself – a moment of rest and ease, of intimacy with experience and of the pleasure and treasure of gazing deeply into ones own consciousness.
In our first Day of Practice of the new year, Martin Aylward invites us to gently reset that relationship. To remember that practice is not a duty, but a gift.
This day together will be about discovering and developing the love and joy that is the true engine of a dynamic dharma practice. A day of resetting your attitude and intention, as the new year invites you into an ever developing and deepening orientation to the practice you love, in the life you live.
