There is a Serengetis and settled majesty to woodland scenery
that enters into the soul and delights and elevates it.
- Washington Irving
Suggested Invitation for Day 26
Three Words Inspired by ‘Just Being’
Today’s invitation is to sit comfortably in your chosen Sit Spot for as long as you wish and just ‘be’. Simply sit and observe what is around you. Again, focus on each of your senses in turn. Think about what you can see, what you can hear, what you smell and what you can feel. When thoughts arise, gently bring yourself back to your senses; to the sounds, sights, smells, and feel of your surroundings. Notice the specific qualities of the place in which you are and your place within it. What seems to be drawing your curiosity the most? What things have changed since your first Sit Spot. Towards the end of your Sit Spot practice reflect for a few moments and identify three words inspired by today’s Sit Spot practice.
