    Day: 45 of 100 (Tuesday)
    Date: Septmber 14, 2021
    Time: 7:21 a.m. to 7:33 a.m.
    Duration: 12 minutes
    Experience: I was late waking up this morning and slept for a long time. But instead of rushing to do my work, I sat down for meditation first as the effect of the meditation is enjoyable and positive. Rhythemic breathing cycle and the mind focused on the theme of equanimity. I noticed that my mind is conscious about not to get agitated throughout the day even if disturbing events happen because of this meditation. Blank mind is like pressing a refresh button and gives the same level of enjoyment and happiness like a child. It is hard to describe it.

    Experience: Calmer mind through out the session. Waking up early and doing meditatoin is so refreshing. I am about to drive 150 miles for a meeting and the meditation and shower made me so fresh for the meeting. Uneventful but pleasant session.

    Day 47 : 15-09-2021
    Duration : not sure
    Time : 5 15pm to 5 45 pm
    Experience : waking up really early I find myself a bit sleepy until I catch up on a short nap afternoon or early evening. I was exhausted but wanted to finish the meditation. Started and I was very much with the breadth for the first 6 7 mins and I fell asleep... Yes sitting on the sofa does this. Should go back to my padmasana.

    Day: 47 of 100 (Thursday)
    Date: September 16, 2021
    Time: 7:12 a.m. to 7:24 a.m.
    Duration: 12 minutes
    Experience: Very refreshing experience with minimal thoughts. It works like spring cleaning when you attempt a calm mind for even a few minutes everyday. Your thoughts are cleanly organized in a shelf instead of cluttered setting. Unused thoughts can be thrown out of the storage. What is needed can be kept in a reachable place leaving rarely used thoughts archived in the loft.

    Day: 48 of 100 (Friday)
    Date: September 17, 2021
    Time: 7:22 a.m. to 7:34 a.m.
    Duration: 12 minutes
    Experience: Rhthemic breathing cycle - 4 per minute - Last 5 minutes of meditation was without any thoughts. Even in first 10 minutes, I had a few thoughts and was observing without assigning any labels to them. Equanimity continues to be the theme for the month and hence I am practicing unaffected mind throughout the day. During meditation, I am calming my mind so much to implement the same status no matter what happens during the day.
