Meditation Doesn’t work when I’m extremely tired…

In the last 24 hours I’ve experienced exhaustion, frustration, and anxiety. Im not depressed or can’t function under such circumstances, I just deal. We all deal when scheduling is a bitch and can’t get into the right classes. When we’re trying to prepare for the future, or waiting for that drug test to come out negative. lol. That is life…I would have to say that my anxiety and physical tension are at 6 from a scale ranging from 1-10. Lately I’ve been experiencing tension right in the middle of my forehead. As if I’m frowning so hard it hurts. Also on my lower back. I honestly feel exhausted, for no real reason. If that makes sense.

I chose the Guided Confidence and Breath meditation. Since I started this extra credit at 10pm the day its due, I picked this because it was 30 minutes long. Giving me pressure to hurry and get it over with before the dead line. I started off confident and ready to embark on this wonderful journey to relax and “wake” up transformed. Sadly enough I only got half way when I just couldn’t bare to sit a minute longer. The breathing didn’t help. Felt out of breath and couldn’t control it. I kept thinking “I just want to write my post already and go to sleep.” The meditation was actually making my antsy.

Why I started off with such eagerness and ended not even accomplishing the whole video was subject to my tiredness. I wouldn’t do a meditation exercise having in mind that I’m tired and that its due in an hour.
