October 10 on 10: Good Morning


A morning routine has been a wanted element to my day. 
You'd think after all these years, knowing that I feel better and more balanced when I follow the practices that bring me peace, that I'd be more disciplined.







When I know where I'm going as I begin my day the little moments stand out. When I take the time to meditate and write I am able to pause and breathe when I feel my stress level increase. If I take the time to find my balance it's less likely that someone or something will disturb my equanimity.






I found this post that suggested ten ways to create a routine with joyful discipline.
Maybe there is a way to look at discipline that doesn't sound like military school. This month I'm going to explore this and come up with a routine that creates peace, balance and joy.

  7. These are great photos. I especially love that board walk through the woods. I agree that a quite, peaceful routine can be just the thing, but I, like you, struggle to stick with it.
