      What are the benefits. That’s my question, what does sitting with a complete clear mind for x amount of time do? Seriously asking. Some ex excersise jogging, benefits are losing weight, better health, your brain; reading, puzzles etc benefits better memory etc. what is meditation supposed to do? I’d really like to get better at it, but idk what benefits or results to expect.

      Honestly, I think meditation is way more complex and paradoxical than people make it out to be. I've been struggling a lot with it recently. I've been frustrated because I feel like my meditation practice has not been a very fruitful or worthwhile venture, but people keep telling me that you must detach yourself from the practical outcomes of meditation. The problem is that those practical outcomes are the only reason I meditate in the first place. It's very confusing and paradoxical. It really isn't as simple as some people say.

    So i have decided to bring everything back together!!Cuz I'll soon be reaching 12th and it wont be easy with this attitude!! I know that i wouldn't be able to wake up so early suddenly!! It will take maybe 4 days for everything to completely get in place!!!Have watched some UA-cam videos about meditation, excersice and morning routine videos, because everything starts with a positive mind, so changing this old late routine comes without doubt!!
    Time to get everything back together!! ❤️

    Decided to try meditation after years of believing it was a bunch of bs. Recently got dumped by a girl I love, and it's been eating away at me. The first session was alarmingly nice - it felt so wonderful to be at peace for just a couple minutes. Not worrying, or stressing, or feeling alone/empty inside. Just thinking about my breathing and being alone with myself. I'm hoping this will be the first thing I can commit myself to do daily because I want to hold onto that feeling. I strongly recommend it for anyone going through a rough patch in life with no idea what direction to go in.

      Think of life as episodes in production, each episode is a mission and has a task to complete. Set your mind on 1 thing and finish that before moving on to the next. It’s easy to get distracted but the latter mission might ruin the first mission with spoilers. Also you might forget you were doing something at first if you don’t finish what you start.

My perspective and understanding of life and the world around was a completely different and positive. For 2 weeks after I was in complete ecstacy and bliss throughout my days and was just walking on air without a care or worry in the world, I hadn't known life could be so damn joyous.

  • @TheRealHerbaSchmurba
    @TheRealHerbaSchmurba 3 роки тому +306

    As someone whos meditated for a long time, I find it more optimal to meditate without an alarm. When your alarm rings you can subconsciously associate that ringing to mean you are permanently done meditating, which can result in you compartmentalizing meditation only to the instant when you practice. You are also shocked out of the session. Meditation should be something that you try and do all the time. I think it would be better to simply have a clock in front of you without the alarm. This way you are not shocked out of meditation, you peacefully transition out of it and you realize that you can meditate whenever you want without having to rely on an alarm.

    In school I openly confessed that I regularly meditate to spark the interest of my peers on the topic and to tell them about the benefits of meditation. What happened when I simply said that I meditate was that I was laughed at and mocked. They don't even know what meditation is and yet they still laugh at me like I'm some kind of fool.

    My first experience meditating for 5 minutes: I have never mediated before. I am usually a deep thinker and am constantly thinking or stimulating my brain by reading, working, watching videos, playing games, practicing music, learning new skills, etc. I cannot really sit still for very long unless I am trying to fall asleep.
    For 5 minutes I did nothing but focus on my breath. When a thought popped in, I inhaled a deep breath to isolate the thought, and exhaled to push it out of my mind (I imagined my inhale was capturing the thought in a bubble and exhale was blowing it away out of my headspace). Near the end, I started to be overcome by intense euphoria like some sort of runner's high... it actually made it really difficult to focus on my breathing. It was so intense I almost had to stop, but my alarm went off and the 5min was up. It was weird... I never would have guessed it would be so hard to focus on nothing! I am looking forward to trying it again tomorrow. Hopefully it won't be so intense.

    After almost a year of meditating one hour everyday, I've learned:
    *Meditation is the best way to stop an addiction. Personally it's mindlessly browsing UA-cam and watching Porn. I've learned that it's just random thoughts in different shape controlling you, trying to convince you. If you meditate long enough you'll notice that urges come and go. And the longer you sit through this hell of thoughts, the less the urge becomes. Which brings me to the next point on productivity:
    *You can't focus if you think about your addictions all the time. Obviously. You won't be affected by them if you don't give in for a few days. That's why I meditate everytime I feel the urge creep up, so I can process it. So boost your focus by doing nothing for long periods of time, instead of feeding your mind with impulses.
    I'll visit a Vipassana retreat in August. I'll try to sit through the full 10 days, and share my insights.
    I'm on my way to a more productive life, by removing the nonsense with meditation as a tool. I highly encourage you to do the same.

      Nupeee- you gotta sit cross legged :O but at that point of legs falling asleep-- that's already crossing into buddtist meditation,
      Yes I agree with what the person in the video has said but the most recommended (my mother side are all monks, and my mother has said that everything around u are distractions, including your body heat) so before meditation, ♡ wear light loose clothing, have your hair tied and nothing should be touching you ♡
      **your entire body should be relaxed, yes u can slouch but not to a point where u should be feeling pain- nope**
      ▪︎ put a folded t shirt on your lap and put your hands on it, make sure your hands dont touch each other and fingers too
      ▪︎ make sure you arent meditating on your bed but on a mattress or a comfortable place, not a floor because it's hard-- remember, my mother (also becoming monk) foresaw all the issues and distractions ppl might have so she highly suggests for everyone to breathe easily in a meditation position first, no phones, no nothing, just you and your breath... then once a few mins have passed and you are more relaxed and ready for meditation. Start it ♡♡♡
      Start breathing in and out of your nose abit forcefully in a pattern, not too slow, not too fast, but a little fast ♡ loudly so u can hear your breathing- focus your mind and focus on your nostrils- like they are the gate or door to a house, (know when the cold air comes in- do ur best to not miss it! Every breath coming in, only IN because only when you have practiced meditation to a point where you dont miss any INs, then start knowing when air goes out of your nose as well ♡♡♡ REMEMBER dont follow the air going into your lungs, there shouldn't be enough time for that, and only your stomach should be moving- your whole body should be still and relaxed and down ♡♡ your face, shoulders, body, legs, fingers, toes- no tension should be present ♡♡♡
      Eyes must be closed because people get distracted easily- yes know when your thoughts come into your mind, then refocus back onto your nose ♡♡♡ ignore anything that is around you, nothing exist except for your breath ♡♡♡ your house, your room, your family, friends, phone, your body, the floor nothing exist at the moment except for your breathing ♡♡♡
      Hope this helped!

    When i was having anxiety problems i got help and had a few months with sessions with a Psychologist, most important thing i learned and will never forget is to FEEL YOUR EMOTIONS AND DONT RUN AWAY FROM THEM. Running led me to a deep place so medidate so that u can actually feel what isnt going right with u and feel that emotion ( which will leed you to feeling great and confident trust me)

    I feel like im too late, to post a comment here but i hope somebody will see it and it will help them if they are considering meditation, i just had my first session (Not sure how long, lost time, i think like 5-10minutes), and its so calming, it refreshed me immediately, the guy said that you feel the benefits in a month or it depends, but to me it was immediate, before i was filled with thoughts constantly, stress and worries constantly, i was in such a angry mood today, when meditating i felt veins in my forehead (thats how stressed i was, just alot) but after meditating i feel new, i feel much calmer and with 0 Worries, and all it took waa just focusing on my breath, it sounds so stupid or just weird before i did it, but i had to do something to get myself out of the position i was pushing myself into and meditation saved me, it cleaned my angriness, my sadness, my stress, and not magically, i did it, when meditating i realized that certain thoughts had emotions (negative) behind them, and as meditating i just let go of them, doesnt matter what will happen or happened, lets live in this moment, and just relax, meditation is seriously a amazing thing, because its so simple and all you have to do is just try, just for 5Minutes, thats nothing compared to how much time we waste watching useless videos. Seriously, i highly recommend it for everyone, it gave my mind peace.

But after awhile I felt a wave of euphoria wash over me, I was truly in bliss. My only thoughts were those little breaks in between your breaths...before I knew it my timer went off. It almost felt like I was sitting there for only a minute or two. I haven’t felt this euphoric since my first hit of cannabis 4 years ago.

    Your description of focusing on the breath to develop 'mindful awareness' is one of the best I've heard. The 'bridge' you talk about - that little pause between inhaling and exhaling - is such a subtle but profound aspect of our breathing. I think focusing on this could be a game-changer for me. It feels like looking at an old, well-known painting from a new angle and noticing details you'd never seen before.

      there is a state of mind where it gets so highly focused called jhana, where people who have experienced it saying that the experience is so much better than an orgasm, or getting high. when the mind gets so attuned to the object of meditation (eg. in and out breathing), all the pain on the body disappear, people start experiencing an overwhelming sensation of happiness and joy in that state. some meditators lose track of time and do much longer period of meditation from they normally do. just saying.

    What benefits have you noticed in your time of meditation?
    How long do you go for a day?
    When did you start noticing these benefits?
    (And if you have ADHD) have you noticed yourself being more focused and getting less distracted?

      I began meditating in 1996. Only remnants of my adhd remain; it comes up, you notice it, and can move beyond it fairly easily through mindfulness, or walking meditation.
      Over time certain awareness occur that seem scary at first, but it’s just the ego being filtered out. Be peaceful and continue.
      It’s a practice that leads to a more natural understanding of existence.

    Important points to note.
    1) focus between the points between your .
    2)Take deep and slow breaths.
    Don't take very fast breaths.
    3) ideal time for any yoga practice is at the time of sunrise ,sunset and at middle of night 12am.
    4) keep your spine properly erected.
    5) don't set alarms do it till the moment you want to do it. Instead start a stop watch to record your progress.
