The Blue Sky Is Always There

Over a decade ago I downloaded the Headspace app for meditation. Back then a cartoon played that explained mindfulness beautifully and to this day it is the best explanation I have come across!

Think of a perfect blue sky day; the sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky, you hear the birds chirping etc!

Now think of a dark stormy day; dark clouds, loud thunder, you can't see the sun or hear the birds...you get it right?

The key is that even on the dark cloudy day...the blue sky is still there! It's just covered up by the clouds, the noise and weather.

Our minds are the blue sky! Some days we see things clearly, we are present and aware and firing on all cylinders other days our mind gets clouded by thoughts, fears, emotions, overwhelm etc...

The big insight is to remember "the blue sky is always there" and "a clear mind is always there" it's just behind the clouds! So take a breath and remember the blue sky!

Have a smooth morning,
