You are literally stopping to smell the roses! I love this. I know you said meditation without the mindful bit, but it seems to me that you are successfully doing both mindfulness and productive meditation. I think it's a form of mindfulness "meditation" to stop, notice the roses, and smell them. It's a practice in being in the present. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely, that's what I love about this approach. Although productive meditation is not "mindful meditation" in the usual sense of sitting and observing breath or the environment etc, it still very much requires being present and intentional with your thoughts - which is still practicing mindfulness. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts, Jacqueline.
