Thread: Sozu's Workbook

Well, today I did remember to make RAT. First time I remembered it was at daytime around 12 o'clock.

Great work, the best times to randomly check is in the heat of something distraction, such as an interesting conversation.
Keep it up there.

Went to bed at about 02:20am, meditated in like 5 min while in lotus position. Then went bed, fell asleep in maybe 2-3 min.

Wow, you fell asleep in 3 seconds, thats really fast, due to the meditation?

The previous 5 days or so, I have been falling asleep around 00:00 and waking up around 7-8am. While for more than 1 week ago, I went to bed like 1-3am, then woke up about 9-11am.

Well your'e getting a good 8 hours sleep, which is perfect.

Try to stay focused when you WBTB, if you are really tried, stay up for about 10 mins to gain a clear head, then go back to bed and try the technique you wanted to do.

Keep at it! (:

Ahh, awesome.. once again I accidently pressing on "+ Reply to Thread" button instead of the correct "Post quick Reply" button to the right. Resulted that everything I'd written now is gone. So I will just try to re-write some of the stuffs I wrote.

Alright I'll try remember that.

No, I wrote 2-3 minutes, not seconds I don't know if meditation make any much sense as I haven't been doing it much, I'm still a beginner. However I want and will improve my practise on meditation as I believe it will help me in all kind of ways.
I find it great to meditate a couple of minutes before bed, if not a 20-40 min meditation that I sometimes been doing. If I'm not too tired I can meditate longer.
I think that if meditating before bed I'll be more relaxed and clear my mind(?) some. Also I've read that should not be at the computer/TV atleast 1 hour before bed. So meditation will get me some time so I don't go straight from the computer to bed for sleeping, instead I meditate a couple of minutes if not a whole hour.

Yes, but the problem is that often when I've slept 4,5 hours and alarm goes on, I'm so tired that my mind doesn't really waking up. I go up from bed (maybe like a zombie?), go to the alarmclock (maybe 5 steps away), turning it off and then going to bed again.
And YES, here it might take 3 seconds to fall asleep, maybe not, but atleast not more than 1 minute.
Sometimes though, I succeed to wake up more and can stay up.
Last night when I did this, I even told myself that I'll WBTB, but somehow my mind anyway was busy and didn't want to wake up completely.
Ofc I'll keep on trying, but not this coming night, I don't want to take the chance to wake up the family before 7am, so if I perform WBTB I'll go bed around 2-3 am I think and have time on 7am as earliest.
I'll go sleep soon maybe, around 00:00, or 01:00 as latest.
