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.
