I like to meditate behind the fan that powers my airship. It makes a lovely breeze which make meditating easier and allows you to ignore the outside world.
I like to meditate on my bridge leading to my wild home on my island early in the a.m. while it's raining. (How's that for a run on sentence?)
Ramona Flowers likes to meditate under flowing lava with her Ghast-ly friends.. :3 (...I think this one is the best because of the double Ghasts)
l like to meditate at the top of the beach house I made at the Last Light Outpost wild community on smp7 (rudely edited by an admin so the picture is in the post)
In my library Great idea for a contest btw! (rudely edited by an admin so the picture is in the post)
During the day you all know me as the wealthy, hotel mogul, philanthropist Butters89 from SMP6... but at night is a different story! I like to climb up to the sign on my First Hotel (SMP6 12142) and enjoy the sunset before I begin a nights work of fighting off villains!
Sometimes, I go to my favorite tree in the SMP3 Wild and I watch the rain come down, feel the superheated lightning bolt next to me sear my Russian military uniform, and wonder what the chances are that I'll find diamonds on my next mining expedition.
