teaching piano from home has accidentally become my meditation practice

Sharing / Insight 💡

I teach online and I've noticed that the 45 minutes I spend focused on a student's progress is the only time my mind completely stops racing.

I'm not thinking about dinner or my to-do list or anything else. Just listening, observing, guiding.

It's not formal meditation but it has the same effect. Complete presence.

Has anyone else found that teaching or mentoring puts you in that kind of flow state?
