Lately I've let the responsibilities of the world take over my time, energy attention. Everything from my current Hybrid Athlete Journey to now trying to build a business and looking for work again now that I am unemployed... has caused me to put meditation to the side lately. As a result, I have noticed I feel less connected to my higher self and am way more reactive and irritable. Now i'm making a conscious effort to sit and meditate once before I start work, and once I finish work as signals that start and end my work day... Another benefit I think could be that its a symbol that the work day is done and I don't have to carry these thoughts and problems into the night before bed. Has anyone else faced phases in their life where meditation took the back seat and then found a way to return to practice?

🇬🇧🇺🇸 You don't need to be good at meditation. You need to start. Most people wait for the "right moment." The right app. The right teacher. The right state of mind. Fuck that. Start now. Start messy. I've been meditating 15+ years. MBSR certified. My first meditation? 10 minutes on my bed trying not to check my phone. No incense. No mantras. No enlightenment. Just me and my monkey mind. That's where everyone starts. Want structure? Dedicated course inside with Standard membership. Want personal guidance? Book 1-to-1 with me. Want to DIY? Do it. Or start right now. No course needed. Sit. Breathe. Notice thoughts. Don't control them. Just notice. Sanskrit: Dhyana = just sitting Arabic: تأمل (ta'ammul) = contemplation Catalan: Meditació imperfecta The moon doesn't wait to be full to shine. It shows up every night. Waxing. Waning. Whatever. You too. We meditate to be free. Not to be perfect. Start today. 5 minutes. Sitting. Breathing. 🇪🇸🌎 No necesitas ser bueno meditando. Necesitas empezar. La mayoría espera el "momento correcto." La app correcta. El maestro correcto. El estado mental correcto. A la mierda. Empieza ahora. Empieza sucio. Llevo 15+ años meditando. Instructor MBSR certificado. ¿Mi primera meditación? 10 minutos en mi cama intentando no mirar el móvil. Sin incienso. Sin mantras. Sin iluminación. Solo yo y mi mente de mono. Ahí empieza todo el mundo. ¿Quieres estructura? Curso dedicado dentro con membresía VIP. ¿Quieres guía personal? Reserva 1-to-1 conmigo. ¿Quieres hacerlo solo? Hazlo. O empieza ahora mismo. Sin curso. Siéntate. Respira. Nota pensamientos. No los controles. Solo nota. Sánscrito: Dhyana = solo sentarse Árabe: تأمل (ta'ammul) = contemplación Català: Meditació imperfecta La luna no espera estar llena para brillar. Aparece cada noche. Creciendo. Menguando. Lo que sea. Tú también. Meditamos para ser libres. No para ser perfectos. Empieza hoy. 5 minutos. Sentado. Respirando. 💭 First meditation = messy. That's the point.
