Is that a hanging object or something on a wall. I really like the design. Never had much luck at meditating. Great pose.

Lovely, both the figure and the mandala. I've never really had the patience to meditate properly. :)
#3: Ellen Vollor (evollor) on Oct 10, 2016
I haven't meditated in decades. I do however color mandalas! I love them and try to make them balanced in color. Maybe this is a great exercise to begin again!!

Good idea, Ellen. That would be great exercise for the brain.

This puzzle was an exercise for my brain :)

I've been waiting to see if you make a puzzle that exercises our brains. One which is right under our noses. Or fingers. :)

It's coming soon, Norma. :-)

Fun solve. Nice image.

Can't say I've done much meditation but when I'm on my throne everything comes into focus. :)

I can meditate best with sound. I used to go out and listen to the birds and other sounds every morning. after a while I would become completely absorbed in it, if only for a minute or two. Meditation takes practice and I have never progressed very far but I do find that following my breath or attentive listening for a minute or two is calming and centering.

That's a fabulous and very calming image. I don't meditate as a regular practice, but I do focus on my breathing when I feel anxious. It definitely helps.

This is soooo good. When I take the time to mediate, it is very calming.

Great image - the hands especially.
No, I don't meditate unless you count my getting-to-sleep method. I tell myself a story, the same every night for a period of time. Currently it's that I'm preparing to go west in a covered wagon. I decide what to bring with me depending on whether my destination is California during the gold rush or a farming area. This works pretty well to block the worries that can prevent sleep.
#15: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Oct 12, 2016
I do something similar, Susan. I "write" stories and by gong into great detail (to make it boring) it usually lulls me to sleep.
#16: Jane Butcher (jane-o) on Aug 25, 2019
I use apps to help me meditate.
#17: Teresa K (fasstar) on Aug 29, 2019
What are your favorite apps, Jane. I'd love to try some.

Muy curioso puzzle. Y todos meditamos...menos de lo que deberíamos hacer.
