Day 7

Wow, I've been meditating for a week! Looking back on my goals, I think I have accomplished most of them already! My sleep patterns have improved, I am able to focus on the project at hand without constantly looking at my phone, and I have become a calmer person. 

Today we had another snow day so I was able to wake up at a normal hour(9:30- its a miracle!) and meditate before I started my day. I found some rain forest music a few days ago that I thought would be perfect for meditation so I put that on and meditated laying on my bed- it was perfect. 

Last night my Mom was getting really stressed out because she found out that she had to take my dad to the airport when the original plan was that his boss was going to take him. Usually when she gets stressed I leave the room before I do something wrong but this time I decided that she needed to meditate. I made her some green tea and taught her to focus on her breathing to calm herself down. Guess what... it worked! And even better, guess what I got this morning for my efforts... homemade chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven!
