Curious to hear the responses. I need to do it more consistently, but I used Leo's idea of a metronome app on my phone. I put my headphones on and concentrate on the ticking sound. After 10 minutes, it's almost like there are "aftersounds" when each tick was done. Like a curious echo that I hadn't heard at all in the first 5 minutes. Kind of like "TICK" wumpwump "TICK" wumpwump and so forth.

Watching figure skating works perfect for me. (I know that sounds ridiculous, but you are just staring intensely at the people on ice, so why not? since I like figure skating... it works even better than a regular meditation for me)

Reading also works great. I guess anything will work if you really dive into it. Maybe that's why concentrating on something you like works so well.

I got the dart board in the room and focus on the center.
