I am just starting in meditation and I find my mind is always go, go, go. But I am trying to catch myself and get back to focusing on myself. Taking in a deeper breath in those moments and refocusing on whatever inner thoughts I need to be having.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ilgin N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">From a point of view of someone with anxiety, I have been trying to meditate for a few days now. I feel like it really helps me to calm down and test my ability to concentrate. I reccommend it!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Chloe J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I don\u2019t meditate as often as I should but I use a podcast to help me meditate and it relaxes me as it should they\u2019re roughly 2 hours long the podcasts but yeah my mind does wonder a lot during the meditations especially when I get notifications through I try to ignore then but they start to play on my mind wondering what it is so I just look at the notifications and then my mind starts wondering as I\u2019m looking at my phone and completely disregarding the meditation podcast that\u2019s playing in the background of my phone so yeah my mind wonders during meditation but doesn\u2019t everyone?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ma Lys Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think for me, finding meditation can be a challenge. Our minds often tend to wander, and that\u2019s okay. Meditation is simply about noticing that our mind has wondered, but not letting it effect us. \u201cNoting\u201d the thought or distraction and letting it go away can help you retain focus as you meditate.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Petros X.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It really doesn&#39;t stop. But It seems to get better every time I meditate. I think it&#39;s the key to taming my thoughts in general.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raven J.
