Everyone is aware of the benefits of meditation. Yet most people do NOT have a regular meditation practice.
Lisa Hepner, author/speaker and meditation facilitator, says that "one of the biggest obstacles to developing a regular meditation practice is TIME. People say they don't have enough time to meditate!"
So Hepner has come up with a way to help people incorporate meditation into their daily lives without taking ANY time out of their current schedule. And her goal is to help 100,000 people develop the habit of meditation by getting them to take the Don't Wait - Meditate pledge.
Did you know the average American spends 42-60 minutes a day waiting? We wait for doctor's appointments or meetings. We wait on hold on the telephone and for computer programs to download. We wait in line at grocery stores and banks and we wait in traffic.
The Don't Wait - Meditate pledge invites people to convert waiting time into meditating time. If each and every one of us did this one, SIMPLE thing we would all have a regular meditation practice and experience the beneficial results!
People from all across the globe (U.S., Canada, England, Iran, Australia, Ethiopia, China, Bangladesh, Jamaica, India, France, Germany, Egypt and more ...) have signed the Don't Wait - Meditate pledge and agreed to convert their waiting time into meditating time. And holistic centers across the U.S. are even coming on board by converting their waiting rooms into meditating rooms!
