what do you do about "bad meditation" days?

[Night Owl]

Personally I try and bring the meditation state with me all day long. If you can't meditate still in silence try meditating in some other way. Listening to music or playing an instrument, exercising, contemplation, reading, philosophing are all ways in which you can bring up this meditation state. Once you reach this state don't just let it go and think you're done for today, try and keep this vibration and hold on to it. It makes it much easier afterward to just bring up this peaceful undistorted state of beingness. You contain the potential to be able to bring yourself to meditation state by simply focusing on your breathing. One thing that helps about breathing is to not only breathe with your lungs but with all your energy field and chakras and feel the energy rising up from the earth to your mind. Use your lungs as the center of attraction which brings energy from all around into and through you. Good luck.
