I love to float facedown all curled up in the Y pool when no one is around. I focus on the soothing of the water and sort of regestate myself. I imagine my mother's womb wasn't the friendliest place, so I have been enjoying making my own womb, so to speak. I like to also focus on being part of the cycle of life and feel all the water around and in me...I listen to the glugs and the ripples around me, and I look at the reflections of light on the bottom if the day is sunny and focus on being part of the motion of the universe...time ebbing and flowing with the tide...ahhh...so relaxing.
Thanks for posting this. I have found that swimming and water meditation seems to cleanse me better than anyting else.

As the saying goes, when a door slams shut in one place a window opens somewhere else. After staring at the door for many years, it finally occured to me to go look for the open window. I discovered I like sunlight and warmth much more than peeling old doors anyway, so I climbed out the window and reveled in my discovery. I will never sit behind a closed door again, no matter how comfortable my chair becomes. Me
Mel, I'm glad you found your own open window and stepped through it.
