HW13.1 Recipe



I was not able to attend the workshop last week, but I am fascinated by the idea of "recipes."  My recipe was created to help me to remember to meditate.  I practice meditation, but it is difficult to remember to take the time every day and I can often become distracted by other priorities.  My recipe is triggered when I have an event in my calendar with the word "meditation" in it.  I will have to schedule all of my meditations ahead of time.  When the scheduled calendar event begins, my phone will begin to play soothing music.  This will automatically remind me to meditate and put me in the right mood to relax and put aside my other work.  I think it is very useful and slightly ironic, since meditation is often about distancing yourself from electronics and the internet and focusing on your physical and mental needs.  In this case, however, the two work together well.
