Such a good challenge! Did my first five breathes and it reminded me how much I need to slow down. Thank you for this!

4.5 minutes :white_check_mark:
Coffee then meditation; maybe not the best idea. But it was good. It was work. But it was good.

I have skipped a few days…

But I just did 4.5 minutes, and I feel very relaxed :slight_smile:

4 1/2 :white_check_mark: mantra used today, " I am. In this. Here now." The mantra reduced my wandering thoughts, it worked. :raised_hands::hugs:

I too have been using what my Mom calls our family mantra. I use it when I notice that I’m wandering… I am happy, healthy and strong.
Four and one half minutes done :relaxed:

Fuuuuuck. 5 minutes. :white_check_mark:
That was hard. I think I’d rather be suffering through a plank :grimacing:
I don’t have a comfortable spot or chair. But if I do I tend to fall asleep. I actually thought 5 minutes was too long and couldn’t quiet my mind.
Sometimes I did use a mantra. “In this moment,” it help.
I feel the next time I do 5 it will be easier.
I do like reading other peoples comments.
Thank you.
:pray:t2: Namaste :pray:t2:

5 minutes :white_check_mark:
Kind of a fight to the finish. But when I finish, it always seems like I’m finally in level. Like I finally got it down and then the gong goes off and it’s over.

I got my 5 minutes in today.
It was actually difficult. I haven’t slept well the last two nights so I felt jittery today. Then the bottom of my foot started itching and then my neighbors were letting off fireworks randomly. I thought why is that a thing? Anyways never really was able to quiet my mind- obviously! Maybe I’ll try Insight Timer tonight and do a guided one.

Going for five minutes now, quietly and calmly I hope. Doing it whether it works or not is half the battle. Just trying to do it is sometimes all that matters. Peace be with you.

Day 20 5 minutes :white_check_mark:
I cheated big time. I just got back from a 30 minute foot reflexology massage. Then did the 5 minute challenge. Never felt better :blush:
