Zen Zone

A nature spot - such as a mountain top, activity - such as slow dancing, or human made space - such as the Las Vegas Bellagio fountain, that evokes serenity, joy and inspiration.

Just found out we are having triplets! Am heading straight to my zen zone.

Zenning Out

Zen Out or Zenning Out, a deeper form of zoning out. In zoning out, you become absorbed with your own thoughts and inner world, but in Zenning Out you become totally absorbed with the world around you in an almost trance-like state. The world around you looks or feels more real, substantial, and vivid. This can occur after one experiences a trauma, or after someone has purposely chosen to be more aware of their surroundings until the stimuli of the world builds up into a cathartic response within the person. You may also Zen out unexpectedly and it is a very wonderful experience.

At the fairgrouds, I noticed Mallory was staring quietly at the amusement rides, as if lost in thought. I asked her what she was thinking. She said, "The lights, the sounds, it is all so clear and crisp. Even the air smelling of corn dogs and popcorn seems more real."

I said, "Mallory, you're zenning out."

"What's zenning out?"

Zen Carsonism

Accomplishment of something through inactivity

Getting mugged, but then the guy gets arrested. β€œI knew it would work out in the end because of Zen Carsonism.”

Zen as fuck

When you reach a heightened level of passive-aggressiveness with your inner-self, and that you can confidently come to terms with what you want and do not want to give a flying fuck about.

It's been a good 4 months since I've been on my own and I've gotten so self-reliant, that I'm zen as fuck. I wouldn't even blink if I was asked to attend a dinner party now. I'm secure enough to even go on a date.

zen hugs

β€œZen Hugs - the hugs that you would get, if we were there, if we could hug you, but we aren't, and we can't.” ~ Anne McCaffrey & Mercedes Lackey, The Ship Who Searched

Also known as internet hugs, virtual hugs.

(Upon reading a post on the internet) I am sorry you are feeling so down, zen hugs! It will get better

moment of zen

This phrase is mostly commonly found at the end of every broadcast of "The Daily Show", with Jon Stewart saying the tag line after the last commercial break, and throwing up a short video clip before the end credits.

A moment of Zen is something which inspires in the same reaction as does contemplating Zen koans does.

In Zen practice, deliberately irrational statements are sometimes used in Zen to jar persons into realizing the limits of the common uses of the intellect. One well-known example is, β€œWhat is the sound of one hand clapping?”.

Either of these instances can be applied to Jon's "moment of Zen", which often depicts political figures making fools of themselves, or satirizing the American public in general, so the epiphany can come from the realization of the satire, or the realization of how some people are just really, really stupid.

"Here it is folks, your moment of Zen!"

Ten+Zen

An extraordinarily gorgeous woman (a 10), who is even more beautiful on the inside.

Game of Thrones Daenerys Stormborn - Breaker of Chains, Mother of Dragons, The Unburnt Queen of the Andals, House Targaryen, Khaleesi and a true TEN+ZEN

Describing the combination of her outer and inner beauty is beyond what poetry can do justice. She is simply a Ten+Zen

God gave with both hands... she is a Ten+Zen.
