That Girl Is Awake

2 Hours Of Meditation I did 2 hours of meditation for the first time today. I don't consider it to be a huge success because I was highly distracted by my thoughts and was sleepy during the session, so I felt like the time went very fast because of this. It's not a total success, but it's still 2 hours of sitting without moving and opening my eyes, which is progress.

Deep Work Duration: 1 hour 27 minutes I didn't work a lot today too, but it was better than yesterday. I started late in the morning and took way too much time during breaks. I'm thinking about using blocking plugins on Firefox too because I distracted myself on useless sites.

I never had such an experience and I already did 30 - 40 minutes sessions in the past. I think I probably did it wrong, so I will try the free session.

I'm also interested in doing breathwork. I already tried it in the past, but never got the point of crying (it's very rare when I cry), I only got tingling sensations and some dizziness. Can you describe the method a little more? Is it only deep inspirations into the belly followed by expirations until the end of the session? Is it similar to what Leo showed in its video? Do you have a video example? Thank you ElenaO

@Raptorsin7 I had similar thoughts after your previous post. I also realized that when we really love our life, we naturally do and accomplish everything that's necessary to live well without brute-forcing anything. I remember Sadhguru saying something similar: I'm currently doing affirmations every day in order to create results, I think I will reframe them to make them more based on love.
