but once I get it right I'm told I can basically choose when I sleep! We'll see.

No, there is no envy.
No, there is no envy.
Envy is not arising.

Be well, and we embrace all conditions of sitting with you.
It is a gift to have you offering this knowing circumstances.
And it is precious being accepted as we are.
No need for meds to change us - good luck trying !!!

Gassho,
Danny

Ha! That was the problem...it took hours for me to feel sleepy! That wasn't normal, but now I REALLY feel sleepy. It's to the point that I have no choice, which is what it should be.

Thanks for your patience!

I was thinking last night...for my current and past sitters, would moving each sit a half hour earlier make people more or less likely to join?

Let me know!

Dosho, I will sit a half hour earlier, in fact though I am two hours behind you I work to stay up that late so earlier is good. Whatever works for you and the others I will gladly accomodate!

[FaithMoon]

Hi Dosho: half hour earlier would not work for me in the AM or the PM. I like sitting with you, but most important is getting your schedule working for you. Faith-Moon

[Sekishi]

10:30 would work fine for me bro. But in any case, I hope you feel better. Care for the body-mind!

It would be more likely. I sometimes am simply too exhausted to sit at 11pm.

Hi all,

I have had to adjust the times, both 30 minutes earlier than before, starting next week. I hope folks will still be able to join me.

Hi Dosho,

I have not been able to make the sits. Can you take me off of the invite list?

Thanks.

Was going to sit with you on Thursday 8:30, then my husband came home and said he wanted to sit with me at 9. Must have been May when we last sat together ... nice thing.
Will be back on Wednesday!

Hi all,

Just so you know, I have temporarily suspended my scheduled sits on Monday through Thursday. I have been using a CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure for those like me that did not know what it stood for) and it has required a lot of adjustment. For one thing, I keep taking it off in my sleep! But it has also become clear that 20 years of being a night owl has taken it's toll on my health and I need to find a new way.

So, for now my sittings will not be scheduled, but I anticipate that I will do so again once I have a new routine. I thank all of those who have sat with me and while I hope you can all join me at the new times, I am also hopeful it will make it possible for others to sit with us.

Thank you for your understanding and support. My practice developed here at Treeleaf is what made this journey towards a healthier life possible and that is because of all of you. Deep bows to all and, in a sense, nothing will change and we will always be sitting together. Ya just won't see me is all...or hear that really loud fan noise!

Gassho,
Dosho
