This is one of my first posts from 2013. Its still a great question to ask.
Middle Ground moments are moments of mindful awareness where thought and times are set aside and we connect to our inner sense of being.
It isn’t about what we are doing … its our relationship with what we are doing and how it makes us feel.
Experiencing the feeling of being in that moment and connecting to a contented timeless space within us.
Take a moment and recall a time when you felt content and at peace. Instead of focusing on what you were doing, recall the feeling inside. Give it a name.
During the days ahead, whenever you notice becoming stressed or irritated or angry, remember that feeling always lies within you. You can reclaim it for yourself when you practice being present and choose to find your middle ground.
Namaste
I think I’ll pause for a middle ground moment now! 🙏

Many years ago, when I got a hole in one, while playing golf, it was definitely a middle ground moment…and…pure luck! 🙂

I tend to allow my beginning and ending of my days to be reflective and quiet. I do sometimes write in a journal, but then, close my eyes and reflect. Thanks for reminding us what a Middle Ground Moment “looks like,” Val!

This is a great way to find our middle ground, when we really need it.
I try to find my middle ground daily, while I do my meditations.
