How Long Should I Be Sitting At Home?

Posted by Deming Zen Group at 10:49 PM on October 26, 2009

First of all: thank you for sitting at home!


Second of all: make a private commitment with yourself and keep it.  At the Zen group, we sit for half an hour; at home, you can commit to thirty minutes, twenty, ten, anything.  We suggest setting it low enough that you can keep your commitment, and then -- if you want to continue -- do extra. At the right time, you'll be thinking about upping your commitment -- then go for it, challenge yourself.  There will be days you don't feel like sitting; sit your (x) minutes anyway.  When you can do that, "desire mind" has lost some of its power over "you."
