Care to share more about morning meditation? I've found that it doesn't do much for me, unless I'm on vacation or something. Otherwise I find myself unable to properly sit and clear my mind, I focus too much on the day ahead.
Immediately after I wake up, I make some tea and roll up my yoga mat (and sit on it) to help alleviate my back rounding and my legs falling asleep. Once I am in comfortable position and had a couple sips of tea, I close my eyes and focus on my environment. I do not try to silence my mind; Instead, I observe my thoughts and thinking patterns, and let them flow past me instead of obsessing over obtaining clarity. Let me know if you want me to explain more in depth.
How long are you setting aside each morning to meditate? If you are finding that you can't keep your mind focused, try counting your breaths and paying attention to how you are breathing. Are you taking short, staggered breaths, or are you breathing slowly and deeply?
I recently have been "attempting" morning yoga right when I get out of bed to awaken my body to what the day has for me. Do you have any insight about some things I should be doing. Im a newbie at it
If you have a portable mirror, position it to see yourself from the side to check and correct your posture. Make morning yoga/meditation a daily habit; incorporate it into your morning routine. Read up on meditation. If you are looking for an immediate starting point, a commonly referenced online resource is Chapter 5 of Mindfulness in Plain English. And as I mentioned in an earlier comment, sit on a cushion/rolled up yoga mat to help alleviate potential back/posture problems. Focus on your breathing and on observing your thoughts.
