Since I finished all my homework on Saturday I felt very relaxed today. Therefore a long meditation session wasn't necessary. I simply put on my ocean music, sat on my bed and meditated. It was very soothing and I felt so calm after my meditation that I fell asleep. Falling asleep is probably not the point of meditation but it is a nice side benefit to the sleep deprived.
Speaking of sleep, I have noticed that since meditating I have been sleeping better. Before, I would lay in bed for a long time before my overactive mind would stop thinking about everything that had happened that day. Now, I lay down on my bed and I am asleep almost instantly even if I don't meditate at night- obviously this is due to the calming effects of meditation.
Use "lie" when you write "lie down," not lay down. By the way, sleep helps almost everything else related to the mind, so it is great that it is helping you sleep. I wonder if, like most people, you will get too "busy" for meditation later. I hope not.
