How to Fit A Spiritual Practice Into Your Daily Schedule
Introducing the 3 P’s
For the last five years, my spiritual practice has been a 20-minute breathwork session created by Soma Breath.
Before that I tried Vipassana meditation, practicing different forms of yoga, waking up at 5am, chanting, and a whole bunch of things in between.
It was only when I simplified my needs, got clear on my priorities, and made a plan that I found a way to incorporate a spiritual practice into my daily schedule.
As much as the self-help gurus carry a lot of wisdom, much of what they share is applicable to them and their needs. It takes fine-tuning, tweaking, and adaptation to make it work for you and me.
So, after many years of trial and error, I landed on the three P’s:
- Prioritise
- Practice
- Persevere
In the modern world, time is a precious commodity
On my more spacious days, I still meditate, chant, and do some stretching before and after breathing. But as a householder, partner, friend, cat parent, and full-time writer and content creator, sometimes 20 minutes is all I have. So, that’s my number one priority.
