3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
This is the last week before the Late Spring Bank Holiday, where Missus and Son will be at home, so with no clients this week, it's an opportunity for getting some serious promtional work done for both Son's band and my own practice.

I begin the week deeply calm and content, reolved to do all those basic spiritual and mental practices that raise me higher consciousness - embracing uncertainty, the Attitude of Gratitude, attention on my intention, grounding, mundfulness and meditation. My simple self-trigger for remembering to do all this is the exercise of breathing and paying attention. Days such as these when there are no distractions are precious consolidation opportunities.
