    Is it the noise of people doing their thing? Or is it more about personal relations, expectations and other likewise unrelated noise issues OR worse ... is it both?

    Try that link you recently posted. Like you I find his voice very calming.

    Thinking of you.

    I'm using this to assist me with interrupting the thinking process that often keeps me bound. When bounded by the mind, it's easy to just focus on the negative and much harder to find peace within. I know you like Jon Kabat Zin ... but give this one a try. Is only about 10 minutes. There may be long pauses, but the narrator is well versed in helping people along the way.



    This marks the end of a very compulsively struck mind over the last few weeks for me. Well it's not the end ... but it's a start to slowing down my racing thought and help me chill. I start my 1st session with personal trainer tomorrow. No doubt we will be taking it slow due to my recent injury. Wish me luck.

    I hope this finds you guys felling a little better.

    It really is about acceptance. For context I refer to end of video above.

    I'm sorry Dahila you're struggling.

    Thanks for the vid Ponder. Sad to say my mind is so cloudy I couldn't get through it all the way. Maybe later I'll try again. Feels like quicksand sometimes. I think we respectively are going to need time to recover from the holidays before we can say for sure.

    I'm still struggling with acceptance, hate to admit it.

    However.. I'm glad you are on the mend from that long cycle.

    Yep yep ... we're all on our journey. Just sharing is all.

    PT session went really well. I talk more about that later and why it's important to me.

    Hope your feeling better soon.

    Thanks Ponder, I'll create a new thread maybe after the new year, I guess and explain better.

    I did get out today and am home now and going to watch the ball drop on TV. Not in a celebrating party anyway. The building is quiet so hopefully everyone went off to party and make noise elsewhere. *fingers crossed*

    See ya next year
