I have always wanted to get up before the sunrise. Intuitively, it always felt right to get up before or at sunrise and then go to bed a few hours after sunset. I have had some short term success with this. But it always seemed to be a struggle, and the idea of getting up when it was still dark, just didn’t inspire me! ;)
This all changed when I moved to Bali. And I got really in tune with the cycles of nature and craved the silence and serenity of the early mornings! Now, I am up at 5 am every morning and in bed by between 8:30-10:00. It has been amazing and the best part is I didn’t force it, it just naturally happened.
I think the key factors for me are daily meditation practice in the early morning as the sun is rising, as it feels really good to greet the day this way. And, also I haven’t been using electronics after 6 pm. So, I am not on the computer late at night, or watching tv.
This has been one of the best practices that I have incorporated in my life. And, I am now committed to waking up every day at 5 am and doing my hour of meditation. To me this is priceless and gives me so much joy and connection! I look forward to 5 am now! What an amazing gift!
Try it out and let me know how it goes!! :)
