During an incredible trip to Australia, I needed to adapt my daily practices because we were often staying in a family home or in an environment where I was unable to find my own space. Sometimes the plans for the day didn’t allow for my 10-minute meditation practice first thing in the morning. Although I do prefer to keep my routine similar every day, I found I was able to adapt during the trip and actually really enjoyed the opportunity of finding 10 minutes here or there during the day to have a moment of mindfulness. In this way, I still manage to practice pretty much daily, albeit not always at the same time of day that I would usually like to sit and meditate. I particularly enjoyed the moment, sitting at the top of a shrine of remembrance in the Melbourne botanical Gardens, which felt like an extremely peaceful and spiritual place. I was able to meditate with eyes open, gazing into the skyline of Melbourne and this is a definite highlight from the trip. Another similar moment happened when, during exceptionally hot weather, we were relieved to pop into a beautiful church to escape the heat and sit quietly and breathe gently, which was another lovely peaceful moment of mindfulness.
