My DD1 is spirited and sensitive and I second the suggestion of blacking out the room and also using white noise (it really works!). Do you swaddle? That also helped.
TBH with my DD1 I don't think we ever got a day that looked like one of the sample easy routines (not until she was on 2 or even just 1 nap) and I got quite hung up on consistency. The difficulty was that naps just weren't consistent. Also, every time we had a wonder week things would go really wonky for a while and it could just be impossible for her to nap in her Moses basket.
Luckily, she did nap well in the buggy and the carrier so, for my sanity, I got out a lot. Morning naps in the Moses basket went much better, but they got trickier as the day went on, so I used to take her out for walks for naps for my own sanity.
I can say now though that she is a really good sleeper and I don't think that getting out and about so much did her any harm in the long run. Indeed, it kept me sane which can only be a good thing when you're a mum!
So my advice would be do what you can with naps, but if it's too hard don't be afraid to get out and about if it makes it easier. It will make you feel soooo much better. Also, don't get too hung up on achieving the perfect EASY cos that will most likely lead to frustration (maybe not, but better to be pleasantly surprised than frustrated and stressed IMO). This is such a short period in your lo's life I'd try to do what you can to make it as enjoyable as possible and not stress too much about EASY when it gets really tough.
