Changing patterns



My daughter slept over and we fell asleep to a Tara Brach talk. But I actually laughed and woke her up. I rarely laugh with a Dharma talk, I laughed twice! 

We talked about it on the walk to school, and she really listened to the talk, I love it when I can get my daughter to share in with my spiritual path. She usually rejects my efforts to educate her. She wants to learn in her own way, in her own time. I like that actually. 


We had to do one quick 40 minute meditation, and then we're going to meet again later. We met later, and I was so tired, I did a lying down meditation. The problem with laying down meditation is that I fall asleep and sloth and torpor are serious hindrances. I still think it's useful when you're tired of sitting to lay down. Walking is the other direction, it's more vigorous. You have lots of options if you're interested in finding them.
