People have been asking about meditation. I'm a novice, having only been meditating for a few months. I started before I left Agency. I wasn't sleeping well and wasn't coping with the stress of the unknown. It's been when stress (and fear) threaten to overwhelm and I'm grateful now that I started. I sleep much more soundly, and the thought of not knowing what's next isn't paralysing me. Ialso think it's one of the reasons I've been able to stay off the alcohol during February. But there's still so much more to learn. I have difficulty maintaining 'focus' during meditation. My mind is prone to wandering. And I'm still learning to maintain posture - I tend to slump after 15 minutes...
I found Wildmind online. The Real Media lessons are free and is a great way to 'try out' meditation to see if one is really interested. I've focused so far on the Mindfulness and Lovingkindness lessons.
