I'm practicing joyful cleaning at our house this week. Since we were snowed in most of the week it was the perfect opportunity for some deep cleaning and laundry catch-up. I'm always surprised at how satisfying and even enjoyable cleaning can be under the right circumstances. When there is no outside pressure and I am simply cleaning to care for our house and our family, it can be really gratifying. As I am practicing my experiment for this week I am also realizing that meditation is something that can be done throughout the day, at anytime, to bring myself more into the present moment. As I clean, I can be conscious of the love I am putting into my work, and how wonderful it is to be able to stay at home and care for my family. What a gift indeed.
