Morning blogging a new addition to my day..My mind is busy when I wake up this is when I begin to try and shake it all off and read some program literature. Meditation has helped me to stand back from all the thoughts and to start with a clean slate.
"In every quiet moment I can find to calm my mind and think through the day ahead of me, I am meditating. During these moments by clearing my mind and asking my Higher Power to guide me, I find answers to my concerns.. I don't always expect or enjoy the answers I get, but to turn away from them causes even greater turmoil." Courage to Change
Gratitude.

4. My new friends in the program
5. learning new skills
6. Being able to run once in a while, it is difficult but one step at a time I am proceeding

I need to do more medication each day and not just when I am on the boat or on the beach. I do some each morning but could increase my time. A friend is hosting a Zen meditation group each week. I hope to attend that.
Hi Syd,
Yes I do Zen and Recovery meditation in SF
It is a great group all groups attend.
I really enjoyed Kevin Griffins book about Meditation and recovery...Have you read it?
