Ten Minutes, Twice a Day

Two short sits are usually more sustainable than one long one, and for most people they are also more useful.

Morning sets the tone

A sit before the day gets going is the one least likely to be cancelled, because nothing has had a chance to run over yet.

Evening closes it

A second sit late in the day works as a boundary between the working hours and the rest. Keep it away from the point where you are already falling asleep.

Consistency over duration

Ten minutes twice a day, done most days, will do more than an hour on Sunday. If you have to drop one, keep the morning.
