Re: Is there any point to this practice?

I am 11 months into the Headspace programme and find it really helps focus the mind more than other options I have tried, I too still sometimes think I just sat for 20 minutes daydreaming, then remind myself its just how my mind is today, tomorrow may be different and it usually is. They have recent...

Re: The Charles Lindem method?

Hi again, yes the url to his website is over here - http://www.thelindenmethod.co.uk, certainly seems to have enough testimonials from 'celebs' and people around the world to suggest the methods may indeed work, in days on some people. Also seems to have a good support team around him who are availa...

I tried finding peace in a frantic world as a first step into meditation mindfulness but for some reason couldn't stick with the daily meditation, w...

Body Scan troubles for me..

Hello there, I have been on the Headspace Take 10,15, 20 etc and finding it really helpful for the guided meditation. I originally started with FPIAFW but found myself struggling to commit to it, one thing in common with both courses is the 'body scan'. What exactly is it and how do you go about you...

Re: Body forgetting to breath, not nice and quite odd..

Hi there and thanks for your kind replies. The first time this happened to me was whilst meditating during the Frantic World 8 week course, I thought I best put it aside for a few weeks.

Hi there, I have been following the Frantic World 8 week course, has to be said very slowly as I keep hitting walls! My GP tells me I have anxiety disorder so I arrived at this point in the hope it would calm me down somewhat. My experiences so far haven't been great and wondered if anyone else has ...
