In February, meditation teacher and author, Sharon Salzberg sponsors a 28-Day Meditation Challenge. Everybody is invited to commit to meditating every day for the month and join the mindfulness community. As part of the challenge, I’ll be blogging throughout the month (along with other meditator/bloggers) about the experience. You can find the posts on Sharon’s site and I’ll share mine on Focus Pocus.

28-Day Meditation Challenge ~ Day 15
Sunday, February 15, 2015

I am a lover of words
Spoken
Sung
Written

I also feel
The expansive space
The sweet suspension
The relief
Of no words

On my cushion
On the trail
On the dance floor
On my mat
On retreat
My spirit is grateful

My mind wants to fill in the spaces
But there is rest and nourishment
When I can hover
Even for a few seconds
In silence
