Day 22 last night :white_check_mark:
8 minutes before bed. And I heard the gong go off when I was done.
No matter how long I set my timer it always takes half the time to quiet my mind. So I feel like I only got 4 quality minutes. But I did get 7 quality hours of sleep after. So I’m calling it a win.

8 minutes deep breathing before bed and I stayed awake for it. :pray:t2::pray:t2::pray:t2:

I finally realized I need to do my prayers first :grimacing::scream:
I mean how ridiculous, not doing my prayers first. Then deep breathing meditation.
I was doing my bedtime meditation before prayers. Such an easy little shift.
:pray:t2::heart:

Five mins sitting guided for love. After taking some time to listen to and support my housemate who is all worked up (it can get me worked up to, I am also a caring human) about the world news, I need some loving thoughts and feelings. Speaking of… I love you guys. Namastae

edit … having read the posts on this thread, I concur, the earlier in the day meditations are … Idk easier to get “into”

I did a terrible 20 mins breathing meditation last night. I am having a brutal pain flare-up and it’s hard to meditate when I feel like this. I will keep trying.
