Hare Krishna!!
I accidently slept 2 hours more because my alarm didn't go off and now I am feeling guilty that I didn't check the night before.
Is there anything I can do to atone for my mistake😅

Hare KRsna PRabhuji,
PAMHO.
First thing you do is stop feelign guilty about having slept 2 hours more one day. You body needed the rest and took it. Doesnt matter. If your body requires more sleep than 6 hours a day, then you should listen to the demands of the body. To regulate 6 hrs a day sleep, one shoudl eat very light to no dinner, digital detox before sleeping, unwind and calm the mind to the extent possible before sleeping. Another thing that can be done is - keep waking up time same every day regardless of whne you sleep. Accumulated loss of sleep can be made good by sleeping during the day on weekend. I know working people who do this.
There is a difference between demand of the body and laziness. Do not give in to laziness. But you have to listen to the demands of the body to remain fit to do sustained devotion all your life.
