HAPPY CANADA DAY!

Well, not much to say seeing as it's not even 1pm yet, lol.

Meditation is all about state of mind. Yoga says you have to drop everything, yank your legs up past where they're meant to go, and sit there going 'ohmm' for hours on end.

I tend to do it while cycling, with music at high volume in my ears and directing a bike around, but it gets the same effect.

Doing it outside also helps, possibly find a sunbeam to lay out in.
