Is there a time of day you find meditation more useful?

I found maditation more useful at night, when I can relax before sleeping, make a overview of the day and think of my desires for next day.

I find meditation useful at night right before bed, it allows me to both dig deep in my thoughts and let go of my thoughts before I go to sleep. Allowing me to let out most of my worries of the day and thoughts that have been on my mind, so I don’t have them floating lingering in my mind allowing me to have a better sleep and fall asleep faster!

Till now, I cannot find a time when meditation are obviously useful to me. But I can feel my life has changed a little thanks to every meditation I do.

I find meditation very helpful at night before I sleep. It’s an unwinding where I don’t have any pressures to get other things done so I’m most likely to concentration on the meditation. It prepares me for a good night’s sleep. I find I dont think to or usually have time to meditate in the morningbor afternoon so instead I do a breathing exercise in the morning or when I get stressed during the day.

Absolutely! I did not easily become a morning person, but dedicating myself to a morning practice of yoga followed by meditation has changed my life. Yoga was used historically to prepare the body to meditate, this is how I use yoga; focusing on bringing the breath and body together. I then meditate, even if only for 5 minutes. I’ve tried many meditation apps by my very favorite is Stop Breathe and Think. By meditating at the beginning of the day, I set myself up to me more present, kind, and focused throughout the whole day. Evening meditation is nice too, but it’s easy to let an evening routine slide when you’re tired, etc… it also seems more reactive than proactive to me. Try setting a consistent bedtime and wake time, have your glass of water, good breakfast, and then yoga+meditation to start your day.

I prefer to meditate in the morning just before I leave my bed to start the day. At that time, my mind is free from stress, so it’s easier to get into a meditative mindset.

I find meditation very useful at night, when my internal child gets whiny, scared, and panicky. Breathing is deliciously simple and sweet, and I can stop the downslide into madness with just a few minutes’ peace.

Before sleeping time like around 9 or 10 pm is more useful as the body is ready to rest and you can help set your mind at peace.

This was a nice question. In last 1 week or so, meditation has became like a habit. I start deep breathing and experience mindfullness sitting in bus, trains, garden and even in my office meetings. It has not only changed my way of life (calm and composed) but also the approach to life.

I prefer mornings as there are less distractions. Sometimes I do it while commuting as there is not much option to do while sitting there 🙂
