The best time to Meditate is Right away in the morning. Get it done! Chances are that you have a busy life with places to be and obligations of various kinds and the last thing that you want to do is to put off meditation because if you do then it probably will not get done. If you leave it untill the evening then you are are going to feel so tired that you are not going to have time for it.
Meditate in the morning? But I am not a moring person?
Yes, nobody really likes to get out of bed, but once you do it is awesome. Besides Meditation or prayer or maybe both in the same session if you like are really powerfull especially in the morning. If people who don’t like the mornings are not convinced then I will make this case for you for why you should be meditating once you are up out of bed.
Meditating right away is a great way to transistion yourself into your day. When you first wake up in the morning then you are essentially going from a state of rest to a state of movement, where maybe you walk down and make coffee or get dressed, most often you are in a morning fog, drosieness from the sleep. If you were to transition to say sitting on the floor or your couch in the morning then you would be in a better transition period, your body would be gradually coming to its full alertness. I prefer to sit on my couch in the morning for a period 30 minutes and within in that time I find that I am finally coming to an awaken state from a state of slumber and then I make way for exercises. Meditation is a transitional state from that of sleep state to being fully cogniscant of the world around you.
In the morning time I prefer the couch to sitting on the floor, I find that the couch is much more relaxing for just getting into the grove of this world and trying to make sense of its many faults, quirks and good things.
I have been meditating when I can in the morning for the past 16 months straight, and it really has alowed me a nice transition to an awaken state, some might say why not turn on the TV? Well, I guess you could do that too. But I find that why do I want to be programmed by information right away in the morning? Instead, I just want to be with myself and focus on my breath and say to God what it is I am thankful for and or communicate to God a concern or two that I may have, that being said meditation is a really great transitioning period to wonderful world.
