I have to start it all over again...damnit. My usual schedule was to meditate before bedtime, but I screwed it up yesterday when I had to do some overnight work. When I was done, instead of meditating before sleeping, I lied down and thought, "I'll do it...right after a nap." Then I passed out for 8 hours.

Regardless of this 30 day trial, I think this will be a lifelong habit of mine. I felt the difference in myself when I don't meditate today, it was just so easy for me to get wrapped with my thoughts and get angry, offended, moody, pissed. And that was just this one day.

So I'm planning to do it in the mornings now instead of night. Wish me luck. Again.
