Hey Y'all,
So, I this is an update for days 10 thru 14 of my 30 day meditation challenge. Well... I am pleased to say I have been doing quite well, even with being smack dab in the middle of PMS (note to self: get dark chocolate and more tea!!). Anyways, yeah... I am still noticing I can get into a meditative state quickly, sometimes even when I am not meaning to meditate like when we went crabbing or cooking or whatever.
I think that maybe I will be putting more emphasis on the positive thinking part because meditating is all well and good but I don't want to meditate, be good until something pisses me off and then be irritated for damn near the rest of the day. Just some food for thought:)
I'm also noticing that I'm sleeping a lot better, which is a really nice bonus that I didn't expect. My husband told me the other day that my eyes, meaning like underneath eye area, looked really good. I thanked him, but also wondered how bad my eye bags normally be lookin... only kidding;)
Also, I started working out again, which I normally do during the beginning of the month. I like the combination of working out and meditating, even though it takes some time but I think it's worth it. I woke up at 5:30 today to get this accomplished before the dogs needed to go out --which is normally the first thing after I wake up.
I am doing pretty good. Going to continue... I think that the more consistently you do this meditation thing, the more it helps you stay grounded and gain perspective into what's really important.
