St. Francis de Sales was an evolved soul and a 17th century French Bishop of the Catholic Church. In his book Introduction To The Devout Life, he offers this tip for bringing your meditation practice into your day:
When walking in a beautiful garden most people are wont to gather a few flowers as they go, which they keep, and enjoy their scent during the day. So, when the mind explores some mystery in meditation, it is well to pick out one or more points that have specially arrested the attention, and are most likely to be helpful to you through the day, and this should be done at once before quitting the subject of your meditation.
