I am 100% committed and want to incorporate meditation practice into my daily habits

I haven't commenced this course yet, today is my first day. I'm doing this course as I feel stressed, anxious and overwhelmed on a daily basis. I don't sleep well and when I do I'm a very light sleeper and wake easily. I have started to lose my hair and feel certain that this is the cause of my body being in a constant stress state. I'm naturally a busy person and have a personality of go, go, go. I never stop and always running to try build Rome in one day (And yes Rome wasn't built in one day as my husband keeps reminding me). I find it really hard to switch off and guilty if I do stop to rest as my mind is always thinking of what I should be doing with this time instead. I've got to a stage where I know something has to give as I can't keep running on empty. I haven't really ever given meditation a go as again I think to my self I don't have time to meditate and/or it's too hard to get peace to meditate with my 2 small kids. But today I stop making excuses and I'm going to make this a priority, as I know deep down I need this more than anything. For myself first off and secondly for the people around me. I am 100% committed and want to incorporate meditation practice into my daily habits . Wish me luck.
