Mindlessness Meditation

My spiritual teacher, the Pillsbury Dough Boy, and I were talking the other day.  He was saying that if I could just focus on the roll...and then, of course, I poked his stomach.  He giggled as he is wont to do.  And then we said the sacred sound of "mmmmm.....mmmmmmm".  Pop 'N Fresh.  Be the dinner roll.

Wow. 

I try to apply these teachings at work.  Now, if I could just get the crumbs off of my desk.

Wherever You Go, There's a Starbucks

John Cabot Zintillating wrote this book and it's a must.  All unmindful librarians are reading this.  Remember, if you need that jolt of caffeine, there is a Starbucks nearby with your name on it.  Zintillating offers workshops, tee shirts, week long seminars and even autographs if you are willing to buy a copy of his book.

Sometimes when this unmindful librarian is feeling frazzled, she thinks of Zintillating's words.  She rings the calming meditation bell and then says like a mantra, "a caramel latte with that cute swirly thing on top."  This soothes to calm her as she makes her unmindful way through her Zintillating day.
