To Zen or Not To Zen?

One of the beliefs that we incorporate into our mission at The Zen Flower is our reverence for the state of Zen.  Based on the Buddhist idealism of living in the moment, Zen is a state of being that only you can experience within yourself. 

Sure, we all live through life’s ups and downs and try to do so with grace.  However, each moment that you experience in your life is unique to you.  When thinking about a physical activity that most imitates a state of Zen, windsurfing comes to mind.  Yes, you have control of the vessel that you are on; however, at certain times, the wind will take you where it wants you to go.  That’s kind of how life is.  You might feel like you have your hand on the steering wheel, but sometimes life throws you some unexpected loops.

Some ways to get through life’s minor hiccups are meditation, yoga, and inner reflection.  At The Zen Flower, we offer items in our gift boxes to help you achieve a Zen state of mind while sailing the vessel that is your being - through both the good times and bad!
