How I Meditate
Ok, so tonight I'm going to calm my mind and get myself in a relaxed state. Quiet room, check. All nice and comfy, check. Oh crap, did I turn off the oven...Ok, lets try this again. Deep breath in, deep breath out, nice calming breaths...Oh no, totally forgot to call that guy back at work today, I have to do that first thing. FOCUS!...Breathe...Did I remember to put toothpaste on my grocery list? SERIOUSLY FOCUS! Ok, I can't sit still and do this. Let's try Awakening the Dragon. Deep breath in, Deep breath out, wait is it three of these or six of these or two sets of 3 which equals six. NOT THE POINT! Relax! Not working, maybe if I lay down. Try to imagine laying on a nice, warm beach. Again, deep breaths...I think my cat is eating my toilet paper. SERIOUSLY! How do people do this?! Sigh...

As long as you are trying, you are winning =)I also struggle with meditating, I just keep re-directing my thoughts throughout the session and some days are better than others!
ReplyDeleteBahahaha! I can totally relate to this. Meditation isn't easy!
ReplyDeleteYou'll get it, don't give up and it will improve, then just to mess you up you'll get all relaxed and then fight not to fall asleep, hehe. Medition is not easy for me either. I found walking meditation easier to start with. Of course in the summer is nicer, but heck, snow is fun.
