This week was much better for the meditation! My first try was not all that but, when I tried again at the right time it made all the difference. The first time I tried the CD it was in the morning my mind was racing a thousand miles a minute and I really couldn't focus. Then I retried at night in the evening it was a revitalizing experience. Loving kindness was easy the first time and I had no problem at all I think because most of the time I try to put myself in someone else's shoes. I am also incorporating the visualization into my workout and have had a very positive experience so I intend to keep that going!
