Today I realized that I made up my own meditation technique, or at least I think I have since I have not read about it anywhere, that I thought I could share with you all.
Up until today, it has been 2 years since I touched an iron and an iron board. For some reason I was in the mood for it. So I set everything up and got yesterday's laundry ( which was really wrinkly ) and started to iron them. I found the ironing to be very soothing and found myself not wanting to stop, not wanting the clothes to run out.
As I ironed, I visualized the wrinkles being my obstacles in life as of right now or any negative feelings I had or have been having. As the iron straightened them out and made them smooth again, I visualized my path free of the obstacles and free of the negative emotions. I must say I really did enjoy it and felt very refreshed afterwards and motivated to do other activities.
I suggest this practice for those who are just starting with meditation and visualization and that can operate an iron! ::
