October 3rd
I'm having some difficulty quieting my mind. Maybe I should meditate in the morning as soon as I wake up just so my mind is a little fuzzy and I'm concentrating on waking myself up. i understand that meditating is about quieting your mind and focusing, however, my mind is obnoxiously loud and quite defiant! Perhaps I'll do that until I really get the hang of this. Life is crazy right now with jobs and school, thus my mind is running crazy as well!
Today, I assumed my usual upright position on my bed before going to sleep and found that my mind was still operating at its own will. I concentrated on my breathing and maybe a minute after doing so found myself making a "To Do" list for the next day and wondering if I had packed a snack for work the next day. Ugh! How frustrating! I brought myself back to breathing and put myself in non- busy bee mode for about 5 minutes and then the "Tp Do" list resurfaced. I have a whole new respect for Buddha!

It's amazing that one day can go pretty well and the next day can be really tough. It's wonderful that meditation is helping you sleep better!
