100 Days of Gladness: Day 28
(Insight Timer is an app that hosts guided meditations and talks led by the world’s top mindfulness experts, neuroscientists, psychologists, and teachers. These are professionals from places like Stanford, Harvard, and Oxford. Insight Timer is awesome, and I’ve used it since 2017 to track my meditation habits — how often, for how long, etc. I’ve even uploaded a music track for relaxation that’s been played over 221,000 times!)
I’ve gone long stretches without meditating, of course. But it helps to have this app to come home to, and restart my practice.
After a long time of being in a daily meditation groove, we got involved in selling our home in New York, buying a home in Washington, packing up and moving — so I got seriously off track from my cushion at the altar. I clicked open the app, and…
…nothing.
(!)
NOTHING?
Yeah, it was treating me like I was brand new to the app, and did I want to sign up or just continue as a guest?
I’d bought a new iPhone; and somehow, I’d lost the proper credentials and couldn’t get in. They helped me, and the problem got solved, but that is not the point here.
