Have you ever been made fun of for doing something you love?

If you ever find that you are being teased, know that you are not the only one. I always knew that there was a possibility that some kids would think it’s weird that I meditate and I always knew that there could be a situation where I could get teased for it one day.

But when it actually happened, I wasn't prepared and it made me feel really embarrassed.

Although I didn't feel great, I knew deep down the only way to make the teasing stop was to ignore the individuals and turn my attention to the people that do support me and love me. Out of all of the people out there in the world there are more people that support you than those who don’t.

Just a reminder, meditation is not weird. It is unique and special in its own way. Use it because it makes you feel whole and try not to worry about what others think. Know that your breath is there to help center yourself and thoughts in a situation like this. 

“Continue doing whatever it is that you love and have a great rest of your day.”
