(As close to the actual thought process that went on in my head during my dentist appointment today as written word can get...)
If I can be mindful here, I can be mindful anywhere.
Deep breath. Pain is just a reminder I'm alive. I won't find my cave...I won't slip away...I'm here...
OH MY GOODNESS IS THAT BLOOD?? I'm bleeding all over her gloves!
Breathe. Blood is just a part of being human. I'm human, I'm connected to all those humans around me. Life is good and we are all just....Drool.
I just drooled all over myself thanks to her poor skills with the sucker. It's okay she's only human. I am she as she is me as you are me and we are all...Drool. One more time and I'm going to spit on her. She should be glad I don't have rabies.
I can feel my heart beating in my mouth. Just breathe and listen to the sound of my heart beat reminding me what a miracle it is that every day I wake up and breathe and....Drool.
Sometimes mindfulness is over-rated.

I don't think I've ever heard of anyone trying to meditate in a dentist's office! This is like weird beat poetry or something...
hilarious.
My favorite part is "I am she as she is me as you are me and we are all...Drool." :)
I think I heard muzak Beatles in a Dentists office back in Iowa once. Scary.
