Be in That Quiet Space
Our focus this week — Dec 17-23: “Meditation”
Today’s MotD: Be in that Quiet Space. We are encouraged to allow ourselves to be in that quiet space where we can just stop thinking about our problems, crises, and/or tasks. Even for a moment, being in that quiet space allows us to come back to the present, come back to our bodies, come back to focusing on our breath.
Yes, it’s true, it’s not always easy, especially in the middle of a crisis. Which is why the more we go into that quiet space when it’s easier to “stop thinking” (ie. not in the middle of a crisis), the easier and more natural it becomes for us to “be in that quiet space” when a major problem or crisis occurs. For it’s in that quiet space where answers, insights, and guidance can be more readily received.
For instance, when cast in a play, we’re given time and space to practice and learn our lines. The more we practice, the more natural and easier it becomes to get up on stage to perform those lines. Without being prepared, it would be a disaster.
And even if we’ve rehearsed and learned our lines, when it comes time to go out on stage, a bit of nervousness may kick in. If we just take a moment to be in that quiet space in our minds (especially if we’ve practiced being in that quiet space), we can more readily remind ourselves “I’ve got this. I know my lines. We’ve all rehearsed this plenty of times”.
How about you ? What is a quiet space for you ? Do you allow yourself time to be in your quiet space ? Are you open to taking moments out of your day to be in your quiet space so that it becomes a more natural part of you day and life ?
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
