failing failing failing to fit this into my life.
i can make excuses.. this house and my life at the moment makes it harder to achieve this. im so stressed atm.
ironically this is probably the time when meditation would help me the most. :(

first steps.. 2 years ago

picked these tips up off another user so gonna start with this:

1. Meditate at the same time every day. This will help build a habit, and eventually you will feel yourself wanting to meditate at those times.

2. In connection with the above, meditate in the same place every day. Put a screen around where you meditate, or if possible set aside a room for that purpose. All these things will help build peaceful vibrations that will make meditation easier and more enjoyable.

3. Make friends with people who have been meditating for a long time. Ask if you can meditate with them! These things will help to deepen your practice and make it more regular. When you have someone else to meditate, you will be much less likely to flake out!

4. There’s a general rule about meditation: the more you meditate, the more you will want to meditate. Try a longer meditation each week. But never meditate to the point of strain or boredom. It should be enjoyable.

5. Most importantly, never give up. If you miss a day, just say, “I haven’t yet succeeded.” As long as you keep energy going in the right direction, you can make it.
