Super Awesome Chocolate Meditation

28/2/2015

Choose some chocolate - either a type that you've never tried before, or one that you have not eaten recently. 

1. Open the packet. Listen to the crackle. 

2. Inhale the aroma. Let it sweep over you.

3. Break off a piece and look at it. Really let your eyes drink in what it looks like, examining every nook and cranny.

4. Pop it in your mouth. See if it's possible to hold it on your tongue and let it melt, noticing any tendency to hurry the process along. Apparently chocolate has over 300 different flavours. See if you can sense some of them.

5. If you notice your mind wandering while you do this, simply notice where it went, then gently bring it back to the present moment.

6. After the chocolate has completely melted, swallow it very slowly and deliberately. Let it trickle down your throat.

7. Repeat this with one other piece 

8. Take a moment to reflect...
How do you feel? Is it different from normal? Did the chocolate taste better than if you'd just eaten it at a normal breakneck pace? Do you feel fuller than normal, more satisfied?

(ooh yes, my kind of meditation!)

“I offer you peace. I offer you love. I offer you friendship.
I see your beauty. I hear your need. 
I feel your feelings. 
My wisdom flows from the Highest Source. I salute that Source in you. 
Let us work together for unity and love.”
