I find that my midday meditation is the best. That’s when I really feel like I’m emptying my mind or not finding it difficult to resist distracting thought and the onslaught of memories. I thought early morning would be equally well but I find that my mind wants to wander around or think about the day’s activities in a more persistent manner. So although I stay meditating also in the mornings, my favorite meditation time is midday.
I’m not religious, but I like to break down my meditation ritual into two 15 minute chunks. This is because it’s easier for me to stick to one 15 minute session instead of a 30 minute or one hour session no matter where I am. I do one chunk after I come home from work and one chunk before I go to bed in the evening.
On workdays when I have to be up and out super early I prefer meditating on evenings to allow myself to fully relax and not worry about time. On days off or holidays I prefere mediation in the morning to start the day on right note. I don’t consider myself religious and meditation is a part of depression recovery for me.
I usually like to meditate early in the morning and later in the evening, about 15-20 minutes, however I’m trying to length my meditation time gradually. Then yoga for about 10 minutes before bed. As I’ve only recently become “spiritual” or interested in spirituality I haven’t fully integrated any practices in my personal life but I do spend about an hour a day studying these things.
I prefer to meditate in the morning because it makes me feel more calm and grounded throughout the day. I also find it hardest to meditate in the morning, because my mind is SUPER active, and I’m anxious to get started on my day. I am not religious, but I actually find mindfulness and self-love to be my own spirituality.
I like to meditate in the morning as it sets my day up for success and also like to meditate at nighttime as it calms me down so I can sleep peacefully.
I like to meditate in the evening. As I am a working mom, morning is very tough for me. In the evening we do our prayer first and followed by meditation.
I personally enjoy a morning meditation, I usually do it before I do my physical exercise. Sometimes I do a meditation in the middle of the day too. It really depends of how my day is going. With practice, meditation becomes a tool you want to reach at anytime you feel the need for it. To become 'better at it' I suggest a daily practice in the morning.
I love to Meditate both in the morning and in the evening. I am religious person and besides meditation in Faboulos program I make my every day prayers. Mediation helped me to pray bether, be more present.
I like to meditate after I exercise, so it’s literally the third thing I do, right after brushing my teeth and exercising. I’m not religious
