Meditation--The New Lunch Break

Watching Liz Gilbert go through the junk drawer of her life is really fascinating. I know that in my life I already have many live and learn experiences.
Reading this book and learning about Liz's styles and questions that she asks herself to detox her life has really made me think about how my life might be different if I took time to unwind and set aside the time, instead of thinking "...well...maybe if I can afford the couple minutes of not doing my AP World notes...". I realize that if I do not set aside time or put it in my planner, it will not get done. Just like the physical therapy that haunts me by an uncontrolled clumsiness in my right ankle. I never have the time to acutally do my physical therapy, therefore it has left my right ankle and leg [up to my knee], very weak and unable to support me.
I think I just overally wish that I could have more time to know and recognize being at peace with myself. Maybe instead of taking a lunch break, a meditation break might do just as much good--to you know...just, recollect. :)

I love how you referred to her book as "the junk drawer of her life!" I also like how you related it to your life by talking about physical therapy and AP world homework... I know exactly what your talking about. I can't seem to fit the homework in either!
