I'll stick to the topic of slowing down for just a little bit longer - today though I'm thinking of the spiritual and emotional benefits of slowing down outside of running. We live in busy times and that constant rush of activity leaves little room for a calm mind. Meher Baba summed it up perfectly - " A mind that is fast is sick. A mind that is slow is sound. A mind that is still is Divine." Meditation slows the mind down - we become aware of the space between thoughts and gradually allow our attention to dwell for longer and longer moments in these "gaps of Divinity".
Today - slow down.
Just for a moment....and touch
Divinity.
Peace,
Eric
