  3. Sunday Softening: The Quiet Art of Noticing

    There is a quiet joy in spending time outdoors with nowhere in particular to be. When I slow down enough, I begin to notice the gentle things that are so easily overlooked—the way a breeze lifts the delicate tendrils rising from a cushion of moss, carrying tiny spores out into the world. A bee disappears deep into a blossom and emerges dusted in golden pollen. The angle of the evening light softens as the sun begins its descent, turning ordinary moments into something quietly extraordinary.

    Reflection

    This slowness, this noticing, is what has brought me home—brought me back to myself. Not because the world around me has changed, but because my relationship to it has. When I slow down enough to notice, ordinary moments begin to reveal an extraordinary depth.

    So much of modern life pulls our attention away from the present moment. News arrives without pause. Social media asks us to keep scrolling. Our minds jump from one responsibility to the next until life begins to feel hurried, fragmented, and disconnected from the quiet mystery that has always surrounded us.

    Noticing is an invitation to move in the opposite direction.

    It isn’t about clearing your mind or forcing yourself to be present. It is simply the practice of becoming curious. To notice a thought without immediately believing it. To notice a sensation without deciding whether it’s good or bad. To notice the sounds around you, the rhythm of your breath, or the feeling of your feet resting on the earth.

    Joy

    I’ve found that the more I practice noticing, the more I see. A walk becomes richer. A sunset reveals colors I might have missed. Even painting has changed—not because my hands became more skilled overnight, but because my attention became gentler.

    Curiosity softens judgment. And when judgment begins to soften, we often discover that peace was never something we had to create—it was something we hadn’t noticed.

    This gentle meditation invites you to slow down and reconnect with the simple practice of noticing — noticing the breath, the body, sounds, sensations, thoughts, and the small details of this moment.

    There is nothing to fix, force, or achieve. Awareness itself is the practice.

    It must be a diffraction effect. Apparently, it's probably caused by regularly spaced tiny gobbets of glue along the thread?

  5. Why I Stopped Chasing Perfect Meditation

    For years, I thought a good meditation meant a quiet mind, a perfectly straight posture, and leaving the cushion feeling peaceful.

    Some days all three happened. Most days they didn’t.

    My meditation practice began decades ago. I learned to meditate through reading books such as Thich Nhat Hanh’s “The Miracle of Mindfulness.” This wasn’t the worst way to begin; however, I was missing something important.

    Learning to sit.

    The early days of my practice relied heavily on guided meditation to help me keep focus, but the desire arose to sit quietly. This is where I felt the most frustration, as I, like so many others, think our minds need to shut down completely.

    That is not the nature of mind.

    I learned that sitting quietly for ten minutes, allowing my attention to move from thought to breath, and back to thought again, was where the real practice lived.

    The moment I stopped judging a wandering mind as bad meditation was when I stopped chasing perfect meditation.

    What if a successful meditation is simply the one you showed up for?

    What if the distracted days teach us more than the peaceful ones?

    What if meditation isn’t about becoming perfect but about becoming present?

    If you’re new to meditation, you might enjoy beginning with my Awareness Meditation, where we practice noticing breath and body without judgement.

  9. “What we choose to notice changes everything.”
    This quote hits especially hard right now.
    So much harm is sustained by inattention—by the moments we look away, minimize, or stay silent to feel safe.
    Noticing is the first act of integrity.
    It shifts how we show up with each other and the world.

  11. The fact that #antisemites are using the word "#noticing" and "noticing #patterns" as #dogwhistles is annoying because I do actually notice a lot of stuff, patterns included, and one of the most obvious patterns I've noticed to date is that all #antisemitic rhetoric makes no sense if you think critically about it for 5 seconds.
