What do you think about meditation? (1 Viewer)

For me personally I never found it helpful. Guided meditation felt frustrating because it would ask me to imagine a tree or something, then start asking me to zoom in and take notice of details like the color and shape of the leaves and bark and wind and whatever. But I’d just start being confused and frustrated because wdym look closer at the leaves and their color and shape? They didn’t have a color or shape because I hadn’t assigned them one yet. Why are they acting like I’m looking at a literal image and able to notice details like that? And for not guided mediation I just felt like I was sitting doing nothing

But also I’m not saying I think mediation is bad for everyone. I’m sure there are people who genuinely really like it and get benefit from it. But for me personally it’s just not my thing.

For me it works when I have “yoga music” on and just pretending that I am floating around in space lol

Maybe its cuz I have ADHD but it definitely DID NOT work for me

Guided meditation sounds awful to me normal meditation feels like wasting time cuz my mind wanders, I get bored and I just wanna go do smth

Feel the same, actually I just meditate for 30 seconds and then I go do something else!
