Labyrinth - an acrostic poem
Life itself is a labyrinth
Always moving along a continuous path
Be mindful as you take each step
Your heart leading the way over your head
Reflecting on your innermost thoughts
Imagining the way your world could be
Noting and acknowledging thoughts that disturb your balance and setting them free
Trust the path before you
Happiness awaits….
I recently got the opportunity to walk the…

What is Noting in Buddhist Meditation?
"Noting" is a technique used in Buddhist meditation, particularly in the Theravāda Vipassanā (insight) tradition. The practice involves mentally noting or labeling the predominant object of awareness as it arises in the present moment. The purpose of noting is to develop clear comprehension and mindfulness of one's experiences, leading to deeper insight into the nature of reality.
Here's how noting meditation works:
- Observation: As you meditate, you'll naturally become aware of various sensations, thoughts, emotions, and other phenomena.
- Labeling: When you become aware of a particular sensation or thought, you mentally note or label it. For example, if you feel an itch, you might mentally note "itching." If you become aware of a thought about the past, you might note "thinking" or "remembering."
- Returning to the Primary Object: After noting, you gently return your attention to the primary object of meditation, which might be the breath, body sensations, or another chosen object.
- Continuous Noting: As you continue to meditate, you keep noting whatever arises in your awareness. This can include physical sensations, sounds, tastes, smells, emotions, and thoughts.
The benefits of noting in meditation include:
- Increased Mindfulness: By noting, you become more aware of what's happening in the present moment. This helps you develop mindfulness, which is a key aspect of Buddhist meditation.
- Preventing Absorption: Noting can prevent you from getting absorbed or lost in a particular sensation or thought. By labeling it, you acknowledge its presence without getting entangled in it.
- Developing Insight: Over time, noting can lead to deeper insights into the impermanent, unsatisfactory, and non-self nature of all phenomena, which are key insights in Buddhist teachings.
- Enhancing Concentration: Noting can also help enhance concentration by giving the mind a specific task to focus on.
It's worth noting (pun intended) that while this technique is valuable, it's just one of many meditation techniques in the Buddhist tradition. If someone is interested in practicing noting, it's beneficial to receive guidance from a qualified teacher or attend a meditation retreat where the technique is taught.

Gravity and levity, compression and tension When #walking - how much of our experience, which is mostly unconscious, is governed by the reflexes of the feet? And pronation and supination? How much of the experience is the appropriate movement and strength of the proverbial “core”?? Of course, my answer is both, but recently, I have been rechecking my beliefs, and realized I was overly foot focused. (Healthy foot and cranial fixations 😅) Reflexes of the feet are powerful and communicate a highway of information to the low back and then the brain. (shoes are sensory deprivation chambers) However, the feet are fascially connected to the cranium, and the entire body of course, and gait becomes a symphony of full body management of weight from one foot to the other. The ability to balance and gracefully transfer this weight is incredibly important. Otherwise, there’s a sense of falling from one foot to the other and that can create a sense of lack of safety and on down the rabbit hole we could go. #spiralengineoflocomotion #spiralengine #fiveprimarykineticchains #gaittraining #gaitanalysis #gait #walkingmeditation #walkingismytherapy #walkingisgood #fascia #fascialnet #fascialtraining #myofascial #deeplongitudinalsystem #adaptablepolarity #anatomyart #anatomyartwork #humananatomy #anatomyofgait #humananatomyart https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-Ojj-rCZL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
