Feedback On My Meditation Technique

[Lynnel]

I've watched all of leo's videos and I wanna become better and more consistent with meditation.

I've started doing it before I discovered Leo and it's based basicaly on Eckhart Tolle. I am not resisting the thought, observing them, and staying as present as possible.

And over time I got more present and present doing it, basicaly being the awareness in the present moment with nothing. And Content tends to fall off. At the same time I'm kinda simply feeling my body and the present energy.

I don't feel that much progress from it hence I'm wondering whether it's really effective. Leo said that we do not possess the ability to stop thinking, while I believe that if you stop feeding the mind with energy it stops thinking...so I'm a bit lost here.

Any help appreciated

You're contradicting yourself a bit in these two statements. 

Keep practicing meditation, it sounds like it's going just fine. Don't get caught up in a picture of what you think progress looks like.

Thinking is still here but you don t identify with it. It Is just belonging to the body/mind phenomenal world. It Is not of your concern anymore.

Connect with the nothingness of your being. The one wich is calling your dead thinking conceptual mind to wake-up. Let it be. Stop associating the Truth with the non-thinking or meditation.
