This whole process is around 30 minutes. I´ve also been meaning to time the meditation which I havent been doing. I found these great meditation timers: http://www.audiodharma.org/timer/timer.html ...also very cool to have that bell tell the time, I just love that ;) good post Ben, again :)

The main thing with me is to keep doing these good things. I tend to slack of at times ;) But I can also be a tough master so I try to cut myself some slack on these things as well. The shopping once a week is incredibly good to do, saves a bunch of money and time. I´ve never thought about the wardrobe thing, gotta try that :) Thanks again.

]]> Comment on The positive side of anger by Diane Trujillo http://www.zenmasterben.com/the-positive-side-of-anger/comment-page-1/#comment-54 Diane Trujillo Sun, 09 Aug 2009 08:41:07 +0000 http://www.zenmasterben.com/?p=51#comment-54 All too often, people are told that emotions such as anger, jealousy, lust, etc. are negative or "bad" emotions. We're also told that crying is wrong, especially for males. The truth of the matter is that emotions themselves are never wrong; it is the behavior we use to express our emotions that can be dangerous. We as a society need to be careful how we teach our children about emotions. It may be easier to teach them that anger is bad, jealousy is bad, greed is bad. However, we run the risk of raising children who don't know how to express themselves safely and appropriately and who will continue to hold in their "bad" emotions until they no longer can. And not only might they hold in their "bad" emotions, they may also hold back all emotions, regardless of how those emotions are perceived by society. The more we learn, and teach others, to properly express emotion, the less likely we are to create a world of desensitized, robot-like people.
