your meditation minute
I do not know about your week, but betweeen life, work and elections, the first three days of this week were pretty high-impact, so I am taking a long deep breathe today to relax with clips from my last trip to the park.
Marc and I went up to Shelley Lake Park recently and I took a few minutes to catch some clips of people relaxing outdoors. this is kind of like the last two minutes of my favorite show, CBS Sunday Morning, but without the talented photography work…
Enjoy, breathe with purpose and let this minute and a half calm you so you can get on with your work.
If watching this reminded you that you need to get back in touch with breathing and focus, try yoga. Even puttering around with a few poses can be a tremendous relief if you take the time and do the poses with focus (in other words, clear your mind). If you need a yoga mat, consider buying a Harmony Mat by Jade and this is why. Yes, consumerism is bad, but on Allie’s post, you’ll see reason to find another use for your plastic, toxic yoga mat you already have. It’s such a great post.
Sustainably yours, Ashley Sue



Thanks for the link!
I love that part of Sunday Morning too!
My dog LOVED the sounds of the ducks.
I thought I was the only person under 50 who watched that. I feel cooler now. I need to breathe and focus and relax. My link goes to my favorite meditation video.
Hey! Thanks for all the great info. I was browsing through a bunch of green websites and blogs and I came across yours and found it very interesting. There are a bunch of others I like too, like the daily green, ecorazzi and earthlab.com. I especially like EarthLab.com’s carbon calculator (http://www.earthlab.com/signupprofile/). I find it really easy to use (it doesn’t make me feel guilty after I take it). Are there any others you would recommend? Can you drop me a link to your favorites (let me know if they are the same as mine).
