How do you find the time to meditate?

[Flaire-FireStar]

I usually do mine before I go to bed, or when I'm waiting for an appointment or something like that. :)

:rotfl: Hehehe... generally, I don't... you just kinda have to MAKE time...

Ya know Flaire... you're right. Most of us have to wait for something at some point in the day. I'll just do it then! Genius. Pure genius. (Sorry Rick.)

Actually..:lol: Those are the only times when I don't have people bugging me to do things. 8O

I usually meditiate before I go to bed. It helps me relax when the day is over and it helps me get to sleep. :)

Like everyone else had already said, you have to make the time. Find a block of time that you won't be interupted. I like before I go to bed. Everyone else at my house goes to bed fairly early & I'm a night owl. It's perfect. Another good time for me is when I'm on the train on my way to work or on my way home. Sometimes you don't need a lot of time...even 5 or 10 mins works too.

The only time I can usually find to meditate is right before bed too. Unfortunately, I tend to fall asleep. I have tried to have hubby watch the kids while I meditate after dinner. That usually doesn't work- the last time, he had the kids downstairs, playing drums/guitars which came through the floor and into my headphones! Not very relaxing.

I meditate the best in the morning, but it is really hard to find the time then. I have also tried to meditate in the shower too.

Yep! I meditate in the bathtub!, while waiting for appointments, when I'm stuck in traffic, most any spare moment! ;)

I just tack it on the end of activities I do regularly such as "Okay, I'm going to excercise and meditate". That way I've made time for it by including it with things I was going to do anyway. Honestly, if you're sitting in front of the TV or at your computer that is your time. Turn that stuff off and go meditate.

The only time I get to meditate is right before I go to bed. Luckily I never fall asleep during meditation, even if I lie down.

lol..unfortunatly I do fall asleep! I usually meditate in the mornings either before work if I have time or when things get slow at work. Nuttin better than relaxing at work and getting paid! :bubbles:

:) Meditation for me comes (usually) in the morning. It's the last thing I do before leaving for work. I lock myself in my room for 5 to 10 minutes. I was really looking forward to warm weather so that I could meditate on the front porch....but then realized I would have no door to lock!
But sometimes during warm weather I go to a spot just behind the barn and meditate. Usually in the afternoon, just as soon as I get home. The kids usually don't follow me down there cause there afraid they have to fill water buckets, clean stalls, or clean the tack room!;) So that works pretty good.

well, like most other here, i meditate for about 10 minits before i got to bed i sit down in my bed, and meditate but unfortunatly, i share a room with my brother, so he will come and bug me sometimes, but now hes getting used to it so its all ok and i can meditate before bed and then when im done i go and i sit down and i write in my BoI about my day and its really fun and how do you like my run on sentance?

[KissMeImIrish!]

I do what most other people have said...10 minutes before bed is about all i do on a regular basis. If I am planning on doing an inner journey or something then I make time, usually on the weekends!

I prefer to meditate in the morning, I rather get up 10 minutes earlier and meditate then, it gives me energy for the rest of the day :) however I sometimes meditate before bed, but then I am usually to tired to focus...

You need to find out when the time is best for you, before bed, or early in the morning, or perhaps you could get away for ten minutes during your lunchbreak? :)
