The funny thing about mindfulness is that even though it takes effort and solid intention, it’s also deeply relaxing.  I used to think that focusing on my breath was some combination of dreary, boring, and hard. Now I’d say, it’s none of those things. It’s pretty interesting -  sometimes the breath is interesting, but equally often,  what’s interesting is how wild my mind is.   And it’s also easy, when I remember to relax. Which is really what mindfulness is all about: breathing in and waking myself up, then breathing out and relaxing.  Sweet practice for any time,  but especially for this not-so-easy moment.
