I decided I had to step up my sitting since I might be going to a weekend retreat in three weeks. I wasn’t planning on doing this much meditation for a month at least. But this will be an opportunity to meet with an instructor as I have lots of questions. And it wont be just any instructor it will be the Dharma punk himself Noah. And hopefully my retreat mates will be freaks like myself. So I got the balls to do a whole half hour today. I made it through but had to move around little after twenty minutes, and then again a few minutes later because I thought maybe my timer was broken. I came away feeling very proud that I can drive myself like I did. I relaxed the pain and met it with kindness. I continually brought my attention back to my breathing. I didn’t do so bad.
The feeling after a meditation sitting is slightly awesome. You feel like your brain just had a lay down and now has just a little more energy and clarity. My back is stiff as shit on a cold winter day, though.
