Tldr – November was my birthday month and perhaps that disrupted my well-worn routines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having time off is essential, but missing even a few days of a habit increases the activation energy required for continuation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not a terrible month, but not a great one either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meditation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps the most significant area to suffer this month was with meditation, as I only completed 15 sessions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I struggled to reinitiate the routine after my birthday weekend and the psychological effects were noticeable, with increased background overthinking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scheduling a set Zazen time remains elusive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m not waking early enough to complete article writing and exercise, which pushes mindfulness sessions later in the day, where they seemingly fall through the cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
