Feat
Shop in Peace
Any activity, even holiday shopping, can be a form of meditation if you approach it thoughtfully and with "intention." Over the holidays, you will confront endless lines to wait on, defective or imperfect products, equally imperfect prices, and many stressed out people. Your goal is to remain patient and grounded, and when you are drawn away from the ideal, to catch yourself and return to it. To complete this feat, choose at least one mantra. Repeat this while shopping. If successful, all your gifts will be extra blessed.

Spent Black Friday at a $1 store in Jersey! No lines, no fuss no muss... was very patient... I guess this was't a true test... I'll have to wait till christmas eve to do all my shopping! LOL

My mantra didn't help me find what I wanted on Cyber Monday, but it kept me calm as I fruitlessly searched...and then bought plenty of other things.

I got caught at Sak's on fifth in the snow and sleet on Saturday - a complete mess. I remembered this challenge and stayed serene in the heat of wet, cold people pushing each other around.

i like shopping but when it comes to crowds and cold weather it takes a couple of extra deep breaths... I shopped for 3 hours yesterday and still had patience to drive home in rush hour traffic.

I am blessed, I am beautiful, I am blissful.

this was pretty easy...since i barely did any shopping AND i did it outside of crazy pre-holiday hours.

Last Saturday at TJ Maxx. Chanted Om Mane Padme Om during my visit and ended up not buying anything.
