Tools like meditation and yoga are versatile in that they can be applied in both the ordinary and extraordinary moments.
Meditation while washing dishes:
Shift your mind to your feet and be aware of them inside the shoes or slippers and there is floor and eventually earth below them. Connect down to earth.
Bring your mind to breath and feel inhales and exhales. Draw earth energy up your body to heart.
Be aware of hands in the soap water. Feel the temperature, and feel the sensation of the objects you touch as you wash them.
Place the objects in the drying rack with intention and gratitude for how they help you everyday.
