Drive with Intent
I have a nice sound system in my Tacoma. That has nothing to do with this exercise, but it makes the exercise more enjoyable.
I put my favorite mantra on and set it to play in a loop. I listened while driving to the next town, about 15 miles away. It made the trip enjoyable, actually luxurious. Here’s what I observed.
- It makes the drive less stressful.
- I tend to stay at or below the speed limit.
- I get to my destination at almost the same time as I would otherwise.
- I get there safely without incurring the ire of other drivers.
- I don’t mind being courteous along the way.
- The best: I am able to empty my mind, travel time becomes a non-issue.
The thoughts here are my personal reflections unless otherwise noted.
