The Zen Art Center :verified:<p>Your body is always changing. Your thoughts, your emotions—even your sense of self—shift from day to day. So what remains constant?

During #Zen retreat work periods it's not about, say, getting the windows clean — it's about washing them.

In tonight's #meditation that sense was present ... as in ...

it's not about achieving a certain state — it's about sitting.

It's what's happening.

I had an insight about my run of recent degraded sleep.

I learned a a few months back that if I meditate too close to bedtime, it disrupts my sleep. #zen

Right now my mind feels like I am meditating continuously. The sleep disregulation now makes sense.

My current challenge is how to use my new mind to deal with this. I've been experimenting with different qualities of mins to call up. Haven't found the right one yet but optimistic.
