Meditation this week was all about clawing out a little space for my own mental peace and quiet. Things are getting busy for the holidays, and I expect next week will be hard on my meditation practice, as there will be 8 people in my house instead of 2. Mostly this week I did sitting meditation (and standing-in-the-shower meditation), trying to find a little space between my thoughts and return to deep, calm, centered breathing. Sitting on the floor in the shower is surprisingly good for this!

I find practicing meditation really helps with managing my stress levels, and I want to make time (once things settle down a little) to do more trance-oriented meditations.
