RE: First Guided Meditation ~ An Out-Of-This-World Experience
Thanks for sharing your experience with guided meditation. I've tried a few forms of meditations, sitting in silence focusing on my breath, dynamic meditations by Osho, mindfulness meditation, I even went to a 10 day Vipassana retreat. I still struggle to make it a daily practice but when I do meditate, even if for a couple of minutes, I feel the benefits.
I use Insight Timer app on my Iphone for both simple, in silence meditations and guided ones. I like it that I can set a nice bell to let me know when the time's up.
That's awesome! How did you like the retreat? I'm going back to the group meetup each week and will try at home maybe a few times a week but it's definitely a struggle to do every day. I hope to get there.
I experienced it as intense and difficult. I enjoyed the silence, and it helped me a lot to realise the mad-house that lives inside my head :)) Unfortunately I didn't keep up with the weekly meetings. I continued to practice daily for a while but then I fell off the wagon. I am in the process of starting again a daily practice. Wish you to get there too, maybe we keep each other accountable :)
Thank would be great! I'm looking into some apps to use at home so we will see how it goes.
