In this first timeful minute,
Become aware of your breath clock.
Allow it to slow and deepen at the same time.
Be mindful that the subjective passage of time is modulated by the speed of our breath.
So breathe in and breathe down.
In this next timeful minute,
Become aware of the ticking of the clock.
Remember that nothing beats the second,
But the thoughts of someone who is watching the clock.
Over this next timeful minute,
Remember that seconds,
Hours,
Weeks and months are man-made.
While they have their uses,
We can also become enslaved by watching them pass by.
In this next timeful minute,
Become aware that different parts of our neurology experience time,
Differently.
Our gut and heart minds operate a little ahead of time and should be trusted.
Our left brain sits inside space and time and our right brain sits everywhere and everywhere else.
Over this next timeful minute,
Be aware that the ground under your feet will move over 16 miles or around 26 kilometers.
Be mindful that nothing in the cosmos stands still apart from a closed mind.
In this next timeful minute,
Tune into the times of the day when you are most productive.
Make a creative date with yourself each and every week,
If not each and every day.
In this next timeful minute,
Remember the moon is a natural timekeeper.
It orbits the earth 13 times each year.
This gives us 13 opportunities to take action and reap rewards.
In this next timeful minute,
Plan for all seasons.
When it is good time,
Spring forward.
Allow your seeds to germinate,
Reap your harvest and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
In this next timeful minute,
Reflect on where you would like to be half a billion miles from now.
This is how far spaceship Earth moves around the sun in its orbit each year.
And in this last timeful minute,
Remember that in times gone by,
Bells were used as timekeepers.
Calls to prayer,
Signifiers and nails for birth and death.
The bell you will hear at the end of this meditation is a call to action.
Think of it not as an ending bell,
But as being the starting bell for the rest of your glorious life.
The bell you hear at the end of this meditation is a call to action.
