Day 8 done :woman_in_lotus_position:

I was going to use this challenge to try to tighten my " headphone-less" meditation. Today at 1.5 mins it’s already a challenge. I need to keep turning my mind away from distracting noises and judgemental thoughts. I will keep trying!!!

Day 8 :white_check_mark::white_check_mark:
I did it twice.
I was so excited to find the timer thingy on Insight Timer, to time the breathing, instead of counting breaths and I couldn’t wait to post it. :grimacing: And of course it was a distraction. But I just “let” it happen. So then I did it again with a totally free mind just concentrating on my breathing.
:pray:t2::heart:

Got lucky, did 15 minutes yesterday and briefly had an OBE. It was really calming somehow…I guess knowing that my mind could free itself completely was nice. Usually i get to step 3 out of 4 (i like to break down meditation into 4 steps, the last step being loss of perception where you just feel “oneness” and the mind stops feeling attachment completely). Felt like an Astral projection. If I had to describe it, it was like my spirit was floating peacefully in the quietest area of the universe. :slight_smile:

It was difficult staying in this state, as my body beckoned me to return pretty quickly once I reached this state.

I think it might have been only the third time I’ve gotten that far with meditation. Usually I get stuck on the step where I am still focusing on an object…which is fine, that in itself is nice, to briefly forget all other stresses

Yesterday, my mind was just able to let go of everything, which is rare. Very addicting feeling. No worries, no anxiety, just bliss / oneness.

On break at work. Probably 60 people around me. Staying still for two plus minutes feels good. More later in the quiet at home.
