The best thing you can do is to be persistent and at the same time not push yourself too hard to succeed quickly. If three minutes is all you manage to begin with, that is not only fine but also exactly what you should aim for! Even if you mind is still cluttered during those three minutes, you\u2019ve still taken a step towards establishing the routine and getting your brain and yourself used to practicing meditation. I find myself having a pretty busy mind for most of my meditations still, but since I don\u2019t care or feel about it I\u2019ll often realise afterwards that the last part was actually really peaceful and zen! So don\u2019t care or worry about it being hard for you, because the second you let that go you\u2019ll already start making huge differences in your meditations, and keep up the practice!
