How do I bring meditation into an ordinary workday?

You don't bring meditation into the workday; you stop leaving it. The workday is already the cushion; you just keep getting up from it. Typing is typing. A meeting is listening. Waiting for the kettle is waiting, nothing added. The trouble is never the busyness, it is the half of you that is somewhere else, rehearsing the next thing. So start small. Today, each time you sit down in a chair, feel your weight land. One breath. Then work.
