Well I've been doing alright with maintaining my goals, keeping notes in a diary is definitely a big help. My mind has been wandering a lot during meditation sessions though, so I'm going to try doing a session in the morning as well as in the evening, and hopefully it'll help to clear my mind a bit better. I've been a bit spacey and unfocussed overall lately, not really sure what's causing it. :/
I don't like a woe is me rant, so I won't. I will be reading and keeping notes, but I might not post for awhile. Keep up the great work. I am going to stich myself together...pun intended.
I failed. I drank an extra sugary drink because I was really thirsty and I skipped my workout today. Congrats MintySocks. Ponyfan

So don't worry that it wanders, just be kinder to yourself as you pull it back and then you will be more present and pull it back more frequently. Kind of like a really simple computer game. This is what I learned at the Buddhist centre. However I am no good at meditaitng on my own which is why I go to the Buddhist Centre, but my concentration really is shot. In Eastern traditions they would say that the spacey feeling might be because your upper chakras are over energised. Have you tried doing yoga before your meditation practice to ground yourself in the body or doing a 7 point body scan using a chakra visualisation? I just read that back, I bet it sounds really bizarre to anyone not familiar. Heh.

PonyfanSo you had a blip but u could think of it as tapering a sugar addiction and having a doms day. You don't have to do the same level all the time
