    Day: 24 of 100 (Tuesday)
    Date: August 24, 2021
    Time: 6:24 a.m. to 6:41 a.m.
    Duration: 17 minutes
    Experience: Still lot of thoughts came into my mind and I was watching them patiently. Focused on deep inhalation and exhalation cycle. When I became an observer, worries associated with such thoughts don't exist at least during the meditation session. I felt very relaxed after the meditation. Acceptance is the theme for the entire month as I don't originate those thoughts. I reiterated in my mind that they are Vasanas.

    I didn`t update here regularly. I missed one or two days of meditation.
    Aug 24
    Did short SKY breathing, not with the group. I did it alone. At the end,I did tranforming emotions
    meditation which focuses on solar plexus(manipoorakam chakra). From the beginning to end the
    thoughts started to fade away gradually. Nearing the end I felt like a bliss. Serene at the end.

    Day: 25 of 100
    Date: August 25, 2021
    Time: 6:01 a.m. to 6:18 a.m.
    Duration: 17 minutes
    Experience: Rhythemic breathing cycles with deep inhalation and exhalation. 4 cycles per minute. Mind was fresh after this meditation session but observed a few thoughts coming and going during meditation. Morning hours before I fully wake up works best for me. In the acceptance theme, I realized that silencing the mind completely is hard but it is definitely possible to make it not in an agitated state.

    Day: 26 of 100 (Thursday)
    Date: August 26, 2021
    Time: 5:50 a.m. to 6:10 a.m.
    Duration: 20 minutes
    Experience: Time flies when I am on deep inhalation and exhalation cycle while doing meditation and I don't understand why I lose the sense of time during these sessions. But post meditation, I feel fresh and energized.
    Lot of thoughts came into my mind but observing them as opposed to owning them is an interesting exercise.

    Date: Aug 26
    Time: 6:30 am to 6:50 am
    Duration: 14mins
    Experience: I'm loving the calm app. I chose wake up routine to meditate and went with a theme. Ur was for 14 mins. It was so blissful I don't know when I stopped being with that I just went to a calm state without anything to think about. 14 mins was done, no timer but I had lost track of music . I opened my eyes n it was 6 50 am.
    Did I sleep off? I'm not sure. :)

    Listening to om mantra... Revised the lesson of acceptance. It's not possible for any single entity present on earth to get accepted by every other entity. So best is to accept yourself and live peacefully.

    Experience: It's not even my bed time but trust me the everyday theme and music I'm selecting is making me sleep off in the calm app. Second day in a row I just slept off while meditating.
