After my 30-day meditation challenge, I don’t think I’ll be continuing with a 10 minute daily meditation practice.

At the start of the month, when my schedule was comparably free and flexible, I was able to sink into meditation without thinking about what was on my to-do list. But since being back on campus, it has become harder to find the time and motivation to meditate.

So, a 30-day meditation challenge seems like the ideal form of preparation!
