The secret about meditation nobody told you before

Did that scare you, the title?

Meditation?

Same here….There was nothing that you could have said that would make me meditate. Seriously, I hated it. The whole thing of trying to think about nothing made me stressed out.

There are many people who love meditation, but I sure wasn’t one of them. In fact. I hated it so much that when people said I should try it since it would help me sleep. I’d rather lay awake for hours than try meditation. 

So if you are now thinking, meditation? I don’t think so. I get you.

I totally get you.

It would be better if they changed the name. Meditation has gotten a bad reputation. I have no clue who gave it this whoo-whoo image. It just happened I guess, over time. I guess we have to live with that. 

So ignore the image you have of meditation, it’s not all burgundy or chiming or chanting or sitting on pillows. Meditation is calming the mind.

Meditation is about calming the mind.

Yes, it’s that simple.

You don’t need to sit with your legs crossed, you don’t need an hour, you don’t even need to think about nothing.

Now if somebody, anybody would have told me this years ago before I got stressed out trying to think about nothing and quitting meditation before I really began?

So if you feel meditation is weird, not for you. You are just too practical and this isn’t it.

One thing you need to know: meditation is the way your mind works. Whether you like it or not… your mind needs to calm down especially now when the world is so busy and we get a daily overload of information, opinions and choices we need to make.

Wouldn't it be so much better if we could just hide in that cabin, next to Yellowstone. Relax watching the flames of the fire. Drink hot choco and get up early to ride the horses.

Well meditation is exactly this, not kidding. If you love this. You’ll love the way I teach meditation.

Oh and by the way. I’m now a true believer. I even got my meditation certificate. 

If you want to see what it’s all about.

You can listen to my Future self guided meditation… No woo-woo. Pinky promise.
