Meditation on a Raisinet
Some of you are probably familiar with the exercise on Mindful Eating that’s often taught on retreat, where little boxes of raisins are passed out at the start of the guided meditation. (They used to pass around a big bowl of loose raisins and everyone just took a handful…but that was back in the old hippy days, before things got corporate.)
Anyway, for today I offer Maira Kalman’s variation on that classic meditation, published last year in Mindful magazine. (click to enlarge)
