Life Practice

This may seem like an easy way out, it is not. What you do on a regular basis, your practice, is the most important and influential action in the course of your life. Adherance to that practice influences the quality and productiveness of your day. A strong practice will directly equate to a high quality of life. This practice may be informed by a religion that you profess, or by a practice that you are interested in or find benefitial. These practices will change throughout the course of your journey, which is natural as you mature and grow.

Most traditions have a set of practices that happen 4 or 5 times a day. This should be true of your practice, regardless of what that practice is. Each of these times should involve a modification of posture, a change of beathing, a change to what you are looking at (close eyes, stop looking at screen) and a change of mental focus. These should be ritualistic in nature, however the ritual might change periodicly to keep the practice fresh. The times should remain close to consistant and be a part of everyday.

These are the first rituals of the morning, right after getting out of bed. They should include streatching and strength movements, modified breathing, a montra for the day, and a moment of pause (meditation). These practices can be blended into morning routines, you might do some yoga movement while the coffee is brewing for example. Practice does not require a dark quiet room or for complete isolation. If your life does not have that, then it should not be expected for your practice.
