Occasional Sunday Meditation Series

Once more playing catch-up, this time after a week's trip to NYC for family and friends. I could stack up some adorable photos of grandsons, but will just carry them in my wallet. (smile). I have discovered, however, that the age group most interested in my smile-purr-snarl exercise hovers between 3 and 5 years old. We sing "Old MacDonald Had A Farm," but with heavy emphasis on pig grunts and snorts. And much laughter ensues!
I'm really becoming a Johnny One-Note, because when all the chatter dies down, the only real thing I have to offer is the smile-purr-snarl-tracheal resonance exercise I've been pushing here so frequently. Fifty rounds first thing in the morning places me in my heart solidly for the rest of the day, although I may have to take brief hits later on to avoid drifting back up into my head.
