I have likened this latest practice to the deep ocean.  I have called it the sea of tranquillity.

The Sea of Tranquility is actually a part of the moon and was once thought by early astronomers to be an ocean. It appears dark when viewed from Earth, smooth and relatively flat. The Sea of Tranquility was the landing site of Apollo 11, the mission during which Neil Armstrong made mankind's first ever walk on the Moon, so it also has relevance for this meditation; just like Neil Armstrong, we are in meditation often venturing into strange and far off lands within us.

I also love the word tranquillity, the word has a beautiful sense of stillness that is useful as a reflection during meditation.

Learn to look at our beautiful world with awe and wonder. Our eyes are in constant use but we rarely look deeply.

This mindfulness practice will bring about a deep connection with your world that you might not have felt since being a child.
