Meditation. I have been on and off with meditation for probably over 5 years now. My interest in it started when i took a Buddhism class at Cleveland State University. From there, i took a relaxation training course. After graduation i moved to Asheville and started to dabble some more by going to a group meditation once a week. I have also tried yoga. None of these things has led to a daily practice, though.
That's why i'm doing this challenge. For the next 21 days i will attempt to meditate each day for a minimum of 5 minutes. 5 minutes might not seem like a long time but for a beginning meditator it can feel like an eternity. Therefore, I'll aim for 5 minutes total instead of 5 minutes at once. I'll most likely do it in one sitting for 5 minutes but i'll also have the option to do 5 one-minute meditations or some other combination. I want to keep my options open and turn it into a habit so i want to make the challenge as easy as possible. I also won't limit sitting to only 5 minutes if i feel like i should continue.
Do you meditate on a regular basis? Any tips or suggestions to help me out along the way?
