Day 1
Just tried it today for 30 minutes and I could say that it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Doing the 30 day being in the moment challenge (which was cut short) probably helped a lot. Nothing complicated, all I did was just start off with some progressive relaxation, and start to notice my breathe, and repeating "Observe, Let Go, Relax" again and again to remind myself to watch my thoughts and then let it go. I don't know why I used those words but I had a sudden thought to do it, and it worked. Still trying to figure out a comfortable position to sit, because after about 20 minutes my right leg feels numb because my left leg is over it (I'm sitting cross legged).
I could tell that meditating really worked because my focus and attention is much more improved after the session. I still have those moments where my thought wanders, but now it feels much intense. It's hard to explain, but it's like the present moment feels that much more clear, and when my thought wanders the whole world goes blackout (does this make sense?).
