Minnie went to bed at 10 last night so I pulled out the big guns.
I didn’t fall asleep until after it was over and I got 8 fucking hours of sleep without getting up once.

Did my Mountain Rain With Tibetan Singing bowls before bed last night at 10:20. 
Wide awake at 2:30 ish 
Did it again at 3 and at 4. Finally back to sleep. But somehow I feel pretty good this morning anyway, so far.

Decided to do another meditation from insight timer on happiness. Not bad

Hahaha I do this too and it will make me chuckle once I realize it. It’s always funny when it happens during our mindfulness sessions at the beginning of DBT group because afterwards we all review our experiences. Of course on days like this I am often full of self judgement. In a comical way though these days

Hi everyone, hope all is well 
Iv always had difficulty quieting my mind to meditate, so have been listening to audio books to try to teach myself to just stop, not think etc…
Lately iv been having more frequent episodes of not feeling like i am real, disassociated from reailty, detached from the world its hard to explain the feeling but i looked up my symptoms and it made sense that its the bodys way of protecting itself from severe emotional trauma which totally im sure is why it keeps happening more often due to my ongoing upsetting situation.
But meditation the past week has got me out of it and grounded me, even short 30 mins guided meditation brings me back, but also feeling balanced mentally. Usually the feeling would go on for days then making other unwanted symptoms pop up.
I am so surprised at how it worked like this for me. Usually during these times of not feeling im real i wouldnt imagine meditation but it was so bad i had tried everything.
Just thought id share this incase it helps any one, as it helps me to share and tell someone.
Thank you for reading

Glad you liked it. I don’t usually like meditations that aren’t guided. I’m glad I actually found this one by accident. I was too lazy to shut it off and I really got into it. Now it’s a go too.

I have found the past week meditating so beneficial for many reasons everday it helps me mentally.
I just thought id share i like to lay down on my belly to meditate so i brought a pillow with a hole in so i can keep my face down and still do my breathing whilst trying to relax every muscle.
Im still on the guided meditations otherwise my mind wanders off so quick.
Im really enjoying it and it is helping me more than ever before.

two mins laying silent, first time i have attempted to medi in a while, like anything I stray from I am out of practice so two mins will have to be a good enough restart, may have to start guided medis again until medis become a more regular focal point of my routine. Namastae
