Re: New to meditation and mindfulness

One Aware, Thank you so much! I didn't even know that there wasn't any right or wrong way. I thought there is a certain right way and I just go easy on myself whenever I don't do so well at it. But I am starting to notice more and more how focused I can be at something now and it is so amazing to fe...

Re: New to meditation and mindfulness

Rara,

That is so funny! I love that saying :) I will keep that in mind. It's crazy because I used to be so good at multitasking and now realized how it was so bad for me. Maybe at times it was alright, but it seemed like I was multitasking all the time. Thank you for your response ;)

Re: Why practice mindfulness?

I practice mindfulness due to my generalized anxiety disorder. It was never brought to my attention until a doctor and a family of mine suggested that I practice such to help me level my stress.

Re: New to meditation and mindfulness

Feehutch, Thanks so much! I will definitely keep that in mind so I don't get disappointed if I am not able to reach that state for every single time I meditate. I was honestly quite a bit scared of how I felt because it was so new to me and I have never experienced anything like such before. I almos...

Re: New to meditation and mindfulness

Thank you, Gareth! I talked to a couple of family member who practice meditation as well, and they told me that it must have been a wonderful meditation experience that I had earlier. I don't expect it to be the same because I've tried meditation before and found myself sort of arguing with myself. ...
