I have been doing guided meditation for the past couple weeks but more recently I have been doing 5 minutes by myself every evening after work listening to sounds of nature. This evening I am going to challenge myself to do 10 minutes.

This is my friend who use to go to sober living places in Santa Monica and teach addicts about meditation. He’s got a few on Spotify SoundCloud iTunes. Etc.

I really needed an attitude adjustment.

This one is so relaxing.
And I love the background music.

I was able to do a little more than 10 minutes of meditation this morning and it felt good it was definitely much needed.

I did this just earlier today. I really enjoyed it and did the full 10 minutes with my mind only wandering a bit for the first few minutes.
I liked meditating on a question and the answers that came up for me were to let go and to ask for help…interesting.

Dilettante · August 13, 2023, 8:30pm

I’m going to try this one tomorrow

I am a big fan of Calm and Inaight timer. I start my day with the Daily Jay (Jay Shetty). He has a key point and short meditation. The whole thing is 7 minutes.

I was looking for compassion.
Found a great nap.

Maybe it worked on my subconscious.

Last night I was able to complete another 10 minute meditation. It was relaxing after a long day at work.

Dazercat · August 19, 2023, 10:54pm

Thought I’d try a new one

Can’t remember shit
I always feel better after.
Lately they put me out. And that’s ok. Things are pretty hectic around here. I do think I remember that one had a lot of long pauses.
