Custom Mindfulness Plan - Chase

This really made me think about what mindfulness actually is.  Using our definition of anything that I give my attention to fully, I realized that I have several practices that I rely on regularly.  One of the most important for me is working with plants.  I have a borderline-OCD relationship with my houseplants and the trees and shrubs outside my house.  I love spacing out and walking around the outside of my small urban house, checking on the growth of each of the shrubs and trees that I have planted.  In the winter I plan out the things that I want to plant as soon as the ground thaws and dream about what my garden will look like in ten years when all of the plants have grown large.  I imagine a miniature jungle with many small spaces where people can relax underneath vines teeming with swollen fruit and trees aflush with flowers.  Dreaming....yes....distracted.....no.
