I do feel that I tend to struggle also or more with the motivating influence. It can be more difficult for me to get sufficient rest.

Actually, I can sometimes be easily up even before the morning practice.

Not to steer the discussion in a different direction, but this excess enthusiasm or what it is also causes me to not develop or maintain perceptive influence.

I have to work with it, and understand how it too is detrimental and counterproductive, at my level of consideration.

Typically it seems that the dulling energies although important to understand, don’t offer much in terms of gains in their applications or effects.

Motivational influence however, appears to be definable in different ways which are not all positive depending on the level of advancement.

In parallel, for the case of the states of the bodies and breath infusion, there are fundamentally two energies to be concerned with, the apana and prana.

There also, consideration must be given to the apana and it’s functioning in order to prevent it from taking out the best out of one’s efforts and practice.
