Sleepless In Orlando

I have been unable to sleep soundly in the past 24 hours. I had the most difficult time trying to fall asleep. I just layed there, with eyes closed yet wide awake. I reminded myself to not become frustrated, but, simply focus on my breath until I drift away. It worked but briefly. I was easily awakened by the slightest noise. At one point, I was tempted to get dressed and take a drive to the local Walmart and walk around until I was completely exhausted, but, I decided against that. I suppose out of compassion for my body and it's obvious need for rest. It's been quite some time since I could not fall asleep. Restlessness of this caliber seems to be an indication that something is occurring on an important level. I have yet to discover the cause for this, but I am in no hurry either. It will be revealed in its own place and time, of that I am certain. However, on a more positive note, I was able last night to meditate successfully. I made great progress in last nights session of tranquility. Perhaps, I thought to myself, last night's sleepless episode was a direct result of the meditation. I was able to go deeper than I have been doing in a really long time. I was energized by the results of my latest efforts. Finally heading in a positive direction for once in what seems a really long while. I am less distracted these days of late. I also have found questions coming from co-workers regarding my recent attitude adjustments. I believe they are sensing a positive change in me that requires furth investigation. I also yesterday found a video for Tai Chi practice which I will begin doing daily. It is a profound session performed by a Master of Shoalin Chen Style. It is amazing to watch. The monk appears to be under water while going through the poses. Just watching transmitts aprofound energy that is absolutely tangible.I have also done a little of Yoga and am preparing for the first full session today to begin officially. So here we are making progress and you have now been made aware. Well, this is all for now. More to come I'm sure. Be Well today! Be Whole within! NAMASTE!
