Birdwatching Makes Meditation Easy

As I sit in the home office of my personal development home business, I have a magnificent view of a pair of sun birds which are nesting on a rope on our veranda here in Cairns. This pair of sun birds have previously nested in this location and raised several families before their nest fell one night just before Christmas.  What a calamity that was!  We were having a little pre-Christmas celebration when all of a sudden the mother bird began to fly into the ceiling and was in great distress.  It took us a while to realise that something had happened to our birds and we then found that their nest had come away at the top and was hanging upside down.

By a miracle, the baby sun birds had not fallen out so we tied the nest back into place and the next morning found the parents furiously feeding their young and in no time they were fledged and away. With some sadness, we removed their old nest and put in place a good strong piece of twine, hoping that they would return and nest again.  The parent birds stayed in our garden and we lived in hope.

Now they have their new nest, on their own special piece of twine and I am able to watch them as I work.

Great meditation – You bet!! Meditation can be done anywhere that you can lose yourself and open your mind and I sure am enjoying this particular meditation.  I have no doubt that my home business in personal development will benefit as well as well as my mind and health.  And having these little sun birds in our garden and around our home just brings me a whole lot of joy and happiness.
