Will be there. Any suggestions on where to park?

Parking is $2 per hour at the bookstore right next to the MU. You usually have to wait a few minutes for a spot, but that's what I'd do.

We will be meeting up at Engrained in the ASU memorial union (There are many other food options available in the same place). The goal of the meeting is to get a regular weekly lunch group going at ASU and more generally in the Phoenix metro area.

Feel free to text me at 602-501-9420 (I am in the process of porting my number to google voice, so phone calls don't work right now)

BTW, the title says December 5th, but the body says December 6th. Which is it?

The 6th. Major kudos for catching that.

I successfully held a lotus pose! I put it on a daily to do list that I would have to check off, and I got myself to do it by using the idea of actions as policies. There were a few days where I forgot, but I just accepted that I couldn't do anything about that and continued on. This has led to almost a month of daily stretching for 18 minutes a day. I have previously tried to regularly hold the necessary stretch many times in the past and failed! Now working to make the pose easier and be able to do it both ways. :)

Excellent! Have any interested friends?

Comment author: Danny_Hintze 05 June 2012 01:58:07AM 0 points [-]

I do. Trying to ensure that interest turns into attendance!

Danny, would you be able to give me a ride?

Comment author: Danny_Hintze 05 June 2012 01:57:13AM 0 points [-]

Sorry, just saw this. This location is actually right next to my house, but I have some friends at ASU who also might be coming if your ride doesn't turn out!

I'm working to be able to do a full lotus meditation pose. I have some weird stuff with the way my hips work and am generally inflexible, so this is not trivial for me. There is a certain stretch that several sources online say will allow me to do it if I stick to doing it for 5-6 weeks every day. The problem is that holding the pose isn't easy, and I've tried in the past and been unable to reliably stick to it. I've been using personal TDT in order to get myself to do it every day, even when tired and ready to go to sleep. So far this has worked wonderfully. I'm also realizing that keeping a streak has its own very strong motivational value for some reason. I'm not sure whether this is particular to me or not. Additionally, I've been trying to use as much positive reinforcement as possible. I don't think that has been quite as successful though. I'm going to focus on finding ways to remedy this.
