I stopped practicing meditation.
I can meditate for hours, with less than one breath per minute...
But, my basic state of mind, is meditation; and it's been that way since I was a child.
I spent a lot of time locked in closets before I could walk, and tied in bed when I learned how to walk.
That's when and how I learned to meditate.
After I began practicing meditation, those memories flooded back; and I realized, There's never been a time in my conscious life, when I wasn't in a meditative state.

bodleing2: Well it's a good meditation position, so long as you're not sat cross legged, that could turn out messy...
But excellent if you can put your feet behind your head

I try my best to be mindful but there are times when it's a real challenge. As far as meditation goes, that is also a challenge for me so I don't even try anymore. ------ This thread is Archived ------
Kaybee50: I find it challenging to quiet my mind long enough to focus on meditation.
I will not forget however, how you provided me a tool a few years ago to help me try to evade panic attacks when my anxiety took ahold of me.
I have passed that along to a couple of friends since then, who also experienced such moments.
Thank you Bod.

Thank you Bod.
Does the tool have anything to do with the four agreements you shared with me a few years ago? ------ This thread is Archived ------

Thanks intrigued,What stands out to me in your post is the word "try."
Best not to try doing anything, other than maybe focusing on your breath without any expectations. Thoughts will come, that's the nature of mind, but just let them be and return to the breath. Don't expect anything to happen, just sit quiet and enjoy the stillness.
Just be a human 'being", instead of a human doing.
