So that motivates me to keep doing it. I\u2019ve also learned not to try for a perfect meditation, because distractions come and my mind wanders off. But now once I realise it\u2019s wandered I gently acknowledge that, and focus again on my breathing. I understand now, with practice, that the more all over the place that my mind is the more I need the meditation. At times where I\u2019m doing a meditation regularly I find it much easier to do and more enjoyable. This is for me a habit that is definitely worth forming.<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"thefa-test2 thefa-entity-placement\" id=\"thefa-3938236827\"><div id=\"thefa-104529524\"><style>.thefa-test2 {margin-bottom: 24px;}<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"banner-content-position light-viol\">\r\n<div class=\"banner-text max400\">Habit building made easy<\/div>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/start.thefabulous.co\/onboarding\/fabulous-initial?utm_source=community-qa&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=afterfirstquestionoranswer-purple-achievegoals\" class=\"banner-cta red w-inline-block\">\r\n<div>Start now<\/div><\/a>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sasha A.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">My goal is to meditate as long as possible, to reach a enlightened state after which i can fully concentrate and think clearly. With that in mind, I only focus on my breathing, or the guide if I\u2019m listening to one, and ignore the need to know the time or fear of wasting time.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Natalie Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I just listen to myself and relax, nothing extraordinary; the exterior silence and the inner voices are the perfect combo for a good meditation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Amelia Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I usually take a guide meditation by fabulous or from YouTube, they will say something to guide my imagination. This also clam my impatience, so that I can complete my meditation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Janet T.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">My meditations are tricky also. I first start with focusing on my breathing first and once im tuned, i start to hear my spirt guide and ask for guidance. My guidance is giving to me then i practice mindfulness. After i practice my mindfulness, more guidance comes in and now im just meditating until im fulfilled with the guidance and mindfulness i have received. \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Johan W.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I just focus on my heart beat instead of thinking of other things. I try to get rid of random thoughts in my mind and put on some music.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Nils S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">First of all, it\u2019s a brilliant step you\u2019ve taken just to begin the meditations. Being tempted to shorten the sessions reveals how much you NEED to take this time to meditate. When I started out, sitting still and focusing on one thing for even 10 minutes felt like an eternity. I grew frustrated when I\u2019d realize my mind had let thoughts in when I was trying to stay thought-free. The trick is, keep starting your meditations and when your mind wanders or you are impatient, gently remind yourself to be still and focused on your breath, or the ceiling, or sounds around you. Meditation only gets easier if, instead of being frustrated at how hard it is to quiet your brain and sit still, you are gentle and compassionate with yourself and steer your thoughts back to the present, physical moment. It will do WONDERS for you ability to focus on a task, a person, or a movie. It also will reduce anxiety levels. Keep up the good work!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caitlin U.
