What's in a name?

According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).


Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

Happiness through yoga?

I had tried yoga in my twenties and not felt like I was getting anything out of it. I rediscovered it this year and have begun using a yoga app on my computer quite regularly. Usually when I'm doing yoga I feel calmness rising, tension draining, muscles stretching, that sort of thing. Sometimes I don't really feel anything and just finish the routine because I don't like leaving things unfinished. Today, though, when I did yoga I began to smile part way through the routine. I felt myself settling into the poses. I even anticipated some of the moves before the little voice directed me where to move. It was forty-five minutes of a mostly quiet mind and moments of unexplained happiness.
