Skpe A Little Meditation Into Your Life

I am a person who immensely dislikes talking on the phone. I think it has everything to do with the fact that when speaking on the phone I never know where to look. Certainly, it's not the person's face that I can see, and so my eyes wonder and so does my mind. Talking on the phone is a distraction. It was a relief when technology filled the need to see the person I'm speaking to with free video chat. Gone are the antiquated days of expensive, poor quality video chatting. Now I use Skpye to have long conversations with family living across the country. But it is the most recent discovery of using Skype to meditate, alongside my mother living several states away, that sealed its usefulness for me.

My mother and I believe meditation is an extension of healthy living combined with exercise, a clean diet, and plenty of sleep. We believe meditation is a wonderful way to start and end the day. When we lived down the street from one another we used to get together and meditate before we exercised. It was our time to connect.

However, after we moved apart we were unable to continue the practice. Until recently, we hadn't meditated together for several years. Now Skype makes it easy for us to meditate each morning as if we are in the same room together. It's a lovely solution to our distance problem and a fabulous use of technology. I've read of other people using Skype to stay in touch in novel ways.  One woman sets her computer up at the end of her dining table, and her mother does the same thing at her end, and she schedules dinner together on Sundays. What a lovely way to use technology to stay close. I'm sure there are more examples out there. Perhaps, you can think of your own unique way to stay close using video chat.
