zen vs zzz

[darren_stranger]

I'm thinking i may have to give up my morning meditation.

Much as i enjoy it, i never manage to get to bed early enough to be up at 5:45 and still get a decent eight hours' sleep.  Whatever benefit i may be gaining from the meditation i feel may be undone through not enough sleep or even stressing about trying to get to bed earlier.  This past week i've had great trouble concentrating and avoiding procrastination, which is often an indication of insufficient sleep.

So, regretfully, this coming week i'm going to try getting up at 6:30 and foregoing the meditation to see what difference it makes.
