BLUE SKY
A simple meditation technique that works.
Those are the times when a clear blue sky with no clouds seemed boring to me. Nowadays, I think of it almost as a kind of natural „reset screen“ 💙
And since Christmas is the perfect time to let go of the worries, the chase for presents (I get it – at least partially 😊 )
and take a breather for a while, I’m adding a simple technique – maybe you’ll like it.
📸 I took this picture of the blue sky yesterday morning on my way to work. And yes… it wouldn’t hold up for this meditation.
You’re not supposed to look at the clouds, or the stars, or the moon – those are objects, I know, I know… 😅
But I just had to take a picture of this sky. The soft veil of cloud, the tiny moon and the bird flying peacefully through the sky
… just poetry ✨🕊️🌙
And because it’s poetry, I’m including a black and white version. It’s not a blue sky anymore… but it’s beautiful 🖤🤍💙
„A look with the naked eye into the blue sky behind the clouds – silence.“ ✨
Just look. Not at the sky, but into it. The sky is not really an object – it’s space, pure emptiness. You can’t observe it, just look into it. And when you look into the void, suddenly the senses are not so busy… and you can get closer to yourself.
And you don’t have to whisper to yourself: „Oh, what a beautiful blue, when will the quiet come?“ 😅
When you look up into the clear sky without thinking about anything, suddenly you realize that everything has disappeared, nothing is there anymore. At that moment you become aware of yourself.
And do you know why this technique works?
Because the eyes are like mirrors.
Everything that’s in front of them is reflected in them.
You look at a sad person – and the sadness touches you.
Someone laughs from the heart – and suddenly you feel like laughing too.
Mirroring. Simple and powerful.
And that’s why you need to watch out for it – especially now at Christmas.
If you want a holiday filled with peace and tranquility, start with yourself.
Because that peace can be reflected in those who look at you. ✨💞
