Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furriends
We hope mew've had a fabulously chilled weekend and here's to feeling all nicely relaxed fur the next few days, but if mew're not we know we can assist mew in getting your Zen Harmonies happening and that fuzzy feeling of zen-ness back.
Let's begin with our little breathing exercise, we're sure mew know what to do but if mew've furgotten: purrlease take deep fulfilling breaths; counting to five on the inhale and five on the exhale:
Breathe in
Breathe out
Breathe in
Breathe out
Breathe in
Breathe out
As mew know we have 2 new recruits, Fudge & Pandora and we've been introducing them to all aspects of being part of The Heathen Hoard, so today they were getting instructions on getting their OM on and increasing their Zen Harmonies.
Fudge is quite the little zen-kitty, he got the hang of meditation instantly, slipping into almost trance-like state effortlessly [we feel that this is because he has no mental resistance whatsoeffur! MOL]
Pandora was not so zen, MOL-ing like a banshee at the ginger ninja - oops.
If mew're feeling a little strung out this week, do the breathing exercise and try to focus your mind on happy thoughts. It doesn't matter if it's only fur a minute or two to start with, because the more mew purractice the longer mew'll be able to hold this relaxed state fur and the easier it will be.
Be like Fudge, reduce all mental resistance and mew'll feel so much better.
