Passage Meditations
Part II
This is Part II of an eight part blog.
As the New Year begins, I would like to offer a series of some of my favorite quotes. These quotes are meant to be read meditatively. In other words read each one slowly, then read it over a few times and then just sit and reflect on it either mentally or by journaling.
Some people find it difficult to just sit and meditate. Others of you can sit and meditate most of the time, but some days your minds are just too much on overdrive. So, this method of meditation, I have found, is a perfect way to slow the mind down and find peace and repose even for the most hyper of individuals.
It is called passage meditation. As well, it is great food for your Soul! You feel uplifted and inspired after doing this for 5 to 10 minutes a day.
So, for this whole month I will be offering you a series of quotes for this purpose. This is a great way to get your New Year started off on the right foot.
The foundation for all success and joy in life, from my point of view, is the quiet mind and the open heart.
So, let start these next few weeks with our hearts leading the way!
Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry.
Live simply, expect little; give much.
Fill your life with love. Scatter sunshine.
Forget self, think of others. Do as you would be done by.
Try this for a week and you will be surprised.

Meister Eckhart
We are going to give you a very simple formula for health. It is this, to live thankfully. When a heart beats with thankfulness for its creation and for all life’s experiences a light shines from the very center of the being, which illumines the whole life. Life itself, the very zest of living and experiencing the simple gifts we enjoy through the five senses, should evoke an outpouring of thankfulness from the child of God.
