Sit in stillness, in silence, as Julie Potiker leads you through this guided meditation She completes the meditation with the poem, "Hope Waits Its Turn", by Shawn Avenigo Sanders.This version ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.Like the number I pulled out from the take-your-turn dispenser at the DMV, Hope sits inside my pocket. It takes a seat in the green plastic chair, understanding there are other emotions ahead of it, each with their own urgency. Anxiety likes to hover near the counter,staring at the red flickering number on the wall, while Logic pretends to be in control, recalculating time as the now serving number grows. But Hope watches asintegers glows, notices how light shifts, ever so slightly, through each changing digit, and how zero radiates out from its inner hole.

She completes the meditation with her poem, "July Morning".This version ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.July morning, by Julie PotikerThere’s a California wild rose bush in bright sun at the edge of the patio in Hailey, Idahowhere I sit in the shade of the house and sip my morning coffeeA silky smooth brown and beige 14 inch garter snake is sunning itself in the moistmulch under the leafy bush. His small beady eye is watching me watch himMorning coffee so different here than Southern CaliforniaThe air is teaming with flying creatures- tiny insects catching the light, and bees asbig as ping pong balls bopping in and out of the grass and shrubs.Only the Western Fly Catcher and Black capped Chickadee are tweeting,that’s another big change -in Cali there’s dozens of species of birds that create the morning symphony.Here, only a few layer their voices to the sound of the river flowing and the gentlebreeze whistling through the green coin leaves of the quacking Aspen trees.This is perfect, I think, different yet perfect, as a plump American Robin drops in tosay good morning, good morning, we do things bigger here in the mountains.July Morning, by Julie PotikerFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".
