A step back

My cold kept me up all night, so this morning I'm feeling deflated.  But I'm going to be patient with myself.  I know that the energy is going to start building in me as I progress with this cleanse. So I'm not going to beat myself up over a low energy day.  Sometimes it's natural to take a step back.

This weekend I'm signed up for a Tergar meditation workshop.  Level one is about cultivating a warm affection towards yourself, and a constant determination to cultivate happiness.

I'm impatient.  I feel after all my years of meditation that this should come naturally to me, and yet caring about myself is daily practice.   And a very difficult skill to develop.
