The daily meditation habit is proving a little challenging.
Two things get in the way: first, the conditions aren't always good - I've either had a meal (you can't meditate on a full stomach) or I am evidently distracted by a number of things to do and would be better off getting some of them done first before meditating.
The second obstacle is that I then forget to meditate. Pathetic, I know, but it happens.
Oh, and another excuse valid point: I sometimes only remember to meditate when I'm about to go to bed - a hopeless time to do it since I'll end up falling asleep - then falling off my chair and doing myself an injury. I really don't want to turn up at Accident and Emergency with a broken nose brought about by an unfortunate meditation accident.
My solution is this: my twice-daily meditation habit will be at fixed times by appointment with myself. I will meditate at 7am and - while I don't have a job - 4pm. I hope this helps.
The sessions themselves are 11 minutes long and of varying - though mostly poor - quality. The decision to go from one session a day to two a day was made on my assumption that quality would be improved by more frequent sessions. And then I want to lengthen the sessions - quickly too.
(And yes, I did meditate this morning!)
