PLACE: the living room floor
CIRCUMSTANCES: Post-Practice, Post first sip of coffee
PRACTICE: Counting Breath

Felt some resistance to getting to the point to being able to come to the cushion, but knew if I didn't do the sit early in the AM (before I left the house again), it wouldn't happen - the day just moves too fast.

Found that counting the breath gave me the anchor to come back to something. Something about Frank's words about using the counting as something that will make our practice strong did resonate with me and helped me play with it.

Also liked being reminded that these practices are what get us out of our comfort zone.
