My daily zazen practice is finally coming back online, slowly but surely. It feels good. I found that I get a better nights sleep if I sit in the evenings. I've changed the height of my zafu so that my rear-end is closer to the floor when I sit in the seiza position. The increased stability of this new seat feels good. I find I can settle into a solid posture more quickly and not worry so much about whether I'm leaning forward or back too much. My legs are going to take some time getting used to this new position, there's a little more pain with this position because of my legs being stretched out closer to the floor more, but it's not a pain that will injure (I think).

I actually missed having the opportunity to sit this morning. On my wife's clinical days she has to be out the door at 6:15am and that doesn't allow for time to sit in the mornings as Amy and I need to get out the door by 7:15am to get her to school and me to work on time. Oh well, such is life with a 4 year old. Looking forward to this evening's sitting.

Peace everyone.
