The 1 Rule: The Training
PRE-WORK: Plan for Calm
The following list comes from my original Plan for Calm and from more current
discoveries. Choose what works for you:
TIME OUT: This keeps coming to mind. So let’s start with this. It’s best if you explain to
your family, that in order to keep in a good mood, sometimes you are going to have a
time out. And ask them to please not bother you until your time out is over.
Where: As long as everyone is safe, choose your place. If you need to be present, in the
room, you might sit in a corner, or even just be there listening to something on your ear
buds (music, inspirational, calming)
How Long: Hopefully as long as you need to get into a good frame of mind. You could
decide beforehand and tell everyone, set a timer, or just tell them you’ll stop when you
feel good again.
During your time out, do something that is satisfying for you, with the intention to feel
better:
1. Read for a while
2. Listen to music / play music / sing
3. Take a shower / a bath (if you can)
4. Meditate / visualize
5. Work out / dance
6. Call a friend
7. Go work in your shop (if you can)
8. …Something that makes you feel better
One of my specialties from this list is meditation. I’ve meditated for about 50 years.
To me, meditation is a very personal experience. I’ve rarely thought of helping people
meditate.
The one time someone insisted and I agreed, I shared a beginning technique with him.
He insisted I share more advanced techniques with him. Finally I agreed. The next day he
told me it almost blew his head off. I did not know that would happen and I’ve never
taught anyone about meditation since, until recently.
Now people have said they would like my help with their meditation.
Now I only share what feels harmonious and inspired. I’ll share from the following sources:
1) Personal experience, from my almost 50 years of meditating.
2) The minimal knowledge I’ve gathered from others over the years, mostly directly from
people.
3) In live meditation sessions, online, I'll share what is inspired.
Questions
1. Create your own plan for calm, or several options.
