The Good Sit is our new Q&A series featuring regular people with a regular practice. We created this series to show the many different forms a meditation practice can take, and to inspire you to kick off a practice of your own! <\/em>This is the very first edition of The Good Sit, featuring my pal, the talented interior stylist and author Mr. Jason Grant. <\/em><\/p>\n

When do you get sit done? <\/strong>
\nFirst thing – wake, walk Sophia (my Boston terrier), meditate, caffeinate. And mid-afternoon (ideally) on a good day<\/p>\n

How often do you sit? (How many times a week?)<\/strong>
\n20 minutes (ideally) twice a day (ideally).<\/p>\n

How long do you sit?<\/strong>
\nIdeally 20 minutes but sometimes short super sessions – I also LOVE to meditate on planes.<\/p>\n

What kind of meditation is your jam?<\/strong>
\nVedic I learned from @thebroadplace<\/a> but also I find other things \u201cmeditative\u201d walking my dog ( we both also enjoy a good \u201cvague out” swimming in the ocean or generally time in nature I also enjoy focusing on one single task ( painting, drawing or anything creative, dancing) sometimes I listen to guided meditations or do a quick power meditation on the go<\/p>\n

Where do you sit? <\/strong>
\nOn my sofa with my dog, she\u2019s a companion meditator – my home is my sanctuary, my creative space, my hideaway where I get to express myself<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your meditation manifesto?<\/strong>
\nIt’s my secret weapon it increases my clarity and creativity and eases any anxiety.<\/p>\n

Hot tips?<\/strong>
\nMEDITATE DO IT!<\/p>\n

Hardships?<\/strong>
\nJust like in like attempting perfection isn\u2019t reality, I love to embrace the beauty in imprecation (that’s were the real beauty is) and this also applies to my practice<\/p>\n

Highlights?<\/strong>
\nLearning to meditate is one of the single best things I ever did even better that I learned from a good friend. <\/p>\n

My Meditation miracle is..<\/strong>
\nMeditation really gets me through life’s ups and downs, as an in-demand interior designer\/stylist my days can be action-packed and hectic, meditation keeps me mindful that productive is better than busy and I am my own resource, so it’s important to provide fuel\/care for myself.  <\/p>\n
