Jack Ziegler’s Reviews > Turning the Mind Into an Ally > Status Update

I just finished the chapter on the impact of laziness on meditation. Too true.

I think the thing I find interesting about this book is that it is talking about things that affect meditation, but those things also affect how I move through everyday life.

I started reading this book last weekend. It was a Christmas present from Beth and Margaret in support of my request for a lesson in mediating from Beth. The chapter I read today presented an idea that I think makes sense even outside of meditating.

A step is preparing for meditation is declaring to yourself that you are going to start. I think that this can work to focus your mind on any activity.
