week 12

Even though our class may be ending, doesn't mean that I am going to have to end my meditation. I really enjoy my meditation, and I acually try to get to it more often, but it seems that Sunday evenings are the only times I am acually able to get time to myself and meditate. This has been a stressful week just after the death of my Granny, and my mother is having a hard time right now becasue she went to visit her everyday, so she is having a hard time filling that void. I acually took a long hot bath with candles burning, as I lied in the bath with my eyes closed letting my body just relax for a good half an hour. I felt so relaxed and releived of the stress of the week, that I end up going to bed so early, because I feel relaxed that my body just wants to go to bed, and let me tell you, it is always the best sleep I get in the week after my meditations. I have to try and make it a point to at least take 10 minutes or little longer at night, to meditate, so I can get a better sleep during the week.

week 11

I have to say that this week was not a good week at all. My Granny had been sick, and on Thursday evening she had passed away peacefully. That night when I came home after being with my family at the nursing home where Granny passed away, I thought it would be a great time for some meditation. In my meditation this time, I went over the many years that I had known my Granny and how many funny things she had done to make us laugh. The meditation really helped with the sorrow I was feeling for the loss of my Granny.

Week 10

I have to say this has not been another very good week, don't know what I had, but this was the second week I had been sick, I believe it has to have been some kind of flu that just didn't want to move on. Being sick really can kick some but, and I did have to say that meditation does feel good for a little while, just being able to close myself in my bedroom and turn on some soft music, and this time I would just lie still and let the music just flow thru my body. I wish it would have taken my upset stomach away for good, but at least it would help a little bit while lying still thru my meditation.
I am writing this Sunday evening, and I have to say that I think I am finally starting to feel a little better, I would like to hope that thru meditation it helped a little bit with having such rolling stomach all day long.
