Introducing Lotus for the Mindful Life Community

Want to earn a great new token for your spiritual posts?

If you are practicing a spiritual life, we've been encouraging you to use the tag #mindfullife so that we can find each other and share experiences. Those who can't write a #mindfulmonday post often go with #mindfullife as an option, as well as other tags such as #mindfulness, #meditation, #spirituality, #buddhism and so on.

Now, we have the ability to reward you with a token. Many of you have been dropped some Lotus - check your wallets, and stake (if you're not sure how to do that, read this post).

You can earn this token by using the tag #naturalmedicine.

When you do so, your post will be visible on the Natural Medicine front end, which really runs the same as Steemit, except it rewards in Lotus instead. Check it out here. You'll notice some of the tags you are familiar with - an easy way to find them all in the same place and be rewarded as you do!

Here are three posts you might like to read to get a clearer understanding:

@metametheus is also writing the Natural Medicine Manifesto, and you can read the first two parts below:

Part 1
Part 2

The badges are a great way to advertise your business or to write a quote that you love the most. I've chosen a quote by Thic Nat Hanh as mine - check it out below:

To me, it's a beautiful saying that reminds me to slow down. It's part of this longer teaching by this great Buddhist master.

“When we walk like (we are rushing), we print anxiety and sorrow on the earth. We have to walk in a way that we only print peace and serenity on the earth... Be aware of the contact between your feet and the earth. Walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh

Mindful posts worth celebrating this week

@desert rat wrote a beautiful piece on surrendering and how the wild weather of climate change can give us lessons on this:

At some point, you reach the apex of your ability to prepare. And then you wait. You gather your vises (hello bourbon, chips and cannabis) you collect all the books, crafts and Netflix binges (until the power dies) and you wait. You worry. You wonder. Your life is segmented into the 4-6 hour blocks of updates from the National Hurricane Center. You contemplate the worst case scenarios and do a mental rundown of your emergency go bag (the bag you keep next to you in case you have to dive into the closet and pray the roof stays put) and then you try to find stillness. The stillness in that surrender is the hardest part of it all. Keeping anxiety at bay and embracing the fact that the Universe has a greater plan for you— or not. At least not on this planet.

@sallybeth yesterday dropped a relaxing video which uses AMSR. Have you heard of it?

@saun wrote about kundalini awakening. Are there many kundalini yogis here on Steem?

@alamayofaquilay writes of some tips for silencing the mind - something I've found hard to do whilst I've been excited about Lotus Coin this week! How easy it is to be addicted to our thoughts!

@rafadezelanda 'rants' about mindfulness in a video on his blog - haven't had chance to watch it yet, but if I know meditators, it's likely a good rant! I notice he also used the tag #vipassana. Who here has completed a 10 day vipassana course? I know some of you have done years and years of meditation - would love to read more about your experiences and insights!

Love this! Nature is medicine and I love that there is a whole tribe built around it! Will definitely be using this and earning some LOTUS! Which is one of my favorite flowers, next to cannabis, which both have some amazing benefits, especially when used together!

OMG, just looked at your blog - love those Weedcash t-shirts and caps - seriously nice work! And yes, cannabis is totes welcome on the front end and absolutely is a natural medicine!

It's really great initiative and I love this way to engage with real life and also earn something. Thanks for the detail information. Resteem.

Fantastic ! I am loving what I'm seeing and the potential is limitless here. I'm making a point to share my nAttymed articles on facebook as well..

Gentleman! Am I in your lucky token list?
