Robin Williams is quoted as saying, “I love to ride my bicycle. For me, it’s mobile meditation.”
That’s how I feel — about a quarter of the time. Meditation is about freeing our minds to think about nothing. I use the time to intentionally think about things – planning my day, working out conflicts, thinking of emails I want to send, thinking of blogs and stories I want to write, and working through songs in my head. But then again, I will come to a stop or a crossing in the road, and think to myself, “how did I get here?” I guess I was meditating after all.
How about you — what do you do when riding?
