I'm going to once again try to start a regular meditation practice because I feel it's absolutely necessary to furthering my spiritual evolution. Philosophizing will only get me so far (and realization is hard to derive from philosophical extrapolation).
So, here's what I'm thinking. My schedule SUCKS as far as having time allowed to do anything. One of my biggest problems is the few time slots I have open are hard to put spiritual practices into, because I'm always feeling rushed and it impedes what I'm trying to do. Additionally, there's almost always something distracting going on (and will be until I get my own room, which will HOPEFULLY be happening sometime in the next two months). To combat these things, I'm going to set my meditation time for when I get home from work. Since I have very few quiet or private refuges, when I get home I'm going to run a nice warm bath, get comfortable, and do my meditating while soaking in a nice warm tub. Keeping in mind that I usually get home at around 12:45 am, does this seem like a decent plan given the circumstances? Also; how important is it to keep your back straight while meditating?
