Introduction to Meditation | Tuesday | Period 1
Because it was thunderstorming outside, Bruce had had to shelve his plans to have class meet outside today in favor of meeting in the Danger Shop, which was programmed to look a whole lot like the outside. And in the interest of being true to the source material, the scene of nature that the Danger Shop was simulating was indeed a stormy day on the school lawn, though without the actual lightning or rain.
"Today we're doing nature meditation, but the weather isn't ideal, so we're just 'outside,'" Bruce said, making awkward air-quotes with one hand. "It's another eyes-open technique, which should give some of you something to focus on. Just find a place to sit or stand wherever looks comfortable, take in your surroundings, and try to absorb the sensory details of your surroundings without processing the meaning of it." He paused. "That's, uh, harder than it sounds. What that means is basically to notice what things look like, sound like and smell like, but not actually think about what you know they actually are."
Sounded fun, right?
"We'll do forty minutes today, which should give you some time to find somewhere to sit," Bruce said. "So... let's begin."
