So I have been getting up between 6-6:30am so that I can meditate for 20-40 minutes without interruption. I've found that the benefits are far outweighing my lack of sleep. I feel kinder, more prepared, grounded and ready to tackle the chaos of our morning ritual.
If you're having trouble finding the motivation to meditate, would you consider joining me? This thought follows after trying to organize a sitting group for parents and caregivers and hearing from folks that they either couldn't find childcare or were too busy. As a result, I thought I'd create a virtual sitting group. No commitment. Just community. Join me when you're available. One important note, there is no fixed time here. Please join me anytime between 6-7am (I often start between 6-6:20am). Recognizing that we are all busy people, I want to make sure that we enjoy our self care practice (i.e., no guilt). As such, flexibility and gentleness is often required! Looking forward to seeing others bright and early! ps: I like to use "insight timer" https://insighttimer.com as it has fabulous guided meditations and simple timers. I also appreciate that I can see the larger community that is meditating along side me - being part of a sitting community is a beautiful thing. pps: If you're new to meditation or have no idea what I'm talking about, let me know. I'm happy to walk you through it.
