Do you know the feeling of repeatative movements having a calming effect on you? Or do you just feeling bored? : )
Working meditation is a part of a lot of mindfulness or vipassana retreats. Do you we bring the working meditation into our homes? Or are they tasks that just need to get done?
We are used to vaccuming a lot in this house. Little feet and hands everywhere and with that crumbs and food galore. I just bought a broom. I find it very calming to sweep my floor. It was my way of turning an annoying mess into a little meditation practice. It is peacful compared to the vacumcleaner and the only time I really like to vacum is when I hear dirt going down the tube... is that just me?
To go with the broom my partner bought a power hoop... repeatative (painful) movement that I am still trying to find the calming in using.
Do things like that calm you down? Knitting, sewing, rowing any other -ing?
