Day 10 - Meditation. Yesterday and today it was easier than it has been. I came here with one of the intentions being to work on learning how to meditate, how to incorporate meditation into my daily routine and find out if it really works. Not going to lie, the first few classes were cool and I was super focused. And than I started dreading it. Knowing I had to sit still for 20 minutes, my body aching in pain, can't move, can't blink, can't think _yet the mind racing). I stopped controlling my mind, and this is why it ran away on me. Distraction is always easier than doing the work, but the work is what need to be done so just do it. Usually whatever you don't like, is exactly what you need.
Today 20 minutes flew by and only colors in the mind. Excited to learn a new technique tomorrow, thankful for friends here who encouraged me to keep trying and now I must pounder how can I incorporate these tools into my daily practice. It’s so important to de-clutter, re-wire, re-route, re-think, and grab the reigns of the brain. For in meditation is where we find our true self.
