30 Days Meditation Challenge

Thanks for your post @Mauritius

I've been dropping the ball for a few days. I had a little accident on a slide at a swimming pool which led to a cut in my eye lid that had to be "glued". I wasn't in the mood for meditation that day after this incident (not an excuse), and I also relapsed with PMO.

However, I meditated today. So I'm back on the challenge!

Day 1: meditated

 

Day 2: meditated

 

Day 3: meditated

I need to reduce screen time. I'm wasting too much time browsing Twitter... I also scroll tend to scroll it after midnight thus undermining my sleep. When I read today, I felt more relaxed but there's always that urge to check the smartphone, very toxic.

Tomorrow, I will not indulge in 'digital entertainment' before 9 pm.

 

Day 4: meditated

I'm also integrating my 'digital detox challenge' in this thread. This night I couldn't sleep right away and I had the urge to check Twitter to keep me a bit entertained but I resisted it. I slept better.

Today I took a bicycle trip to a city. In the evening I checked my smartphone for WhatsApp. Then I went for a walk and played some piano in a piano bar. Checked Twitter and the forum after 9 pm. Feels better!

 

I'm doing good now @Mauritius, thanks. I got out of the 'rut'. Eating clean again. Reducing screen time so less stress/more productivity.

Hope your exams went good.

Day 5: meditated

I checked my smartphone a few times for WhatsApp but checked Twitter/forum only after 9 pm. I'm still 'doomscrolling' but it's an improvement that I'm limiting it now. I had the urge to check Twitter again after midnight. I will try to get rid off it all along.

 

Day 6-7: meditated

Not sure if I will be able to meditate tomorrow since I'm flying and I'll be sleeping in a hostel... I will try in the morning.

 

Day 8-9: meditated

Meditated on the plane yesterday. I though it was a good way to kill the time. It was a timer of 20 mins but eventually I did something like 12 mins because suddenly the plane started gradually descending and I couldn't resist the urge to look outside.

 

Day 1: meditated

I went out with some people a few days ago in the evening and I didn't meditate before that. I've been dropping the ball for a few days now. Meditated for 10 mins at my terrace.
