Nothing to lose so happy to try meditation
It’s worked briefly before but as general life stress rose its effectiveness wasn’t as strong so I gave up
I’ve been doing it on and off for about a year and while I enjoy it and feel better after doing it, I’ve yet to see its impact outside of the time I’m actually practicing it
Hoping to calm my anxiety and negative thoughts before they happen
In the lesson, it talked about thoughts roiling around in my head, crashing into other…and that’s pretty accurate. I want that to stop. I want to minimize my inner critic. Make him go away. Tired of him, really.
To clear my thoughts to focus on just one or 2 things
To control negative thoughts and recognise them as just fears, not reality
To slow my brain down instead of it acting like doom scrolling on a phone, jumping from image to image
Help control negative thoughts and slow down my brain
Im hoping to have a better ability to not let my thoughts spiral out of control
To calm my anxiety and to get rid of my fight or flight response
Remaining present and not letting any little thing completely distract my mind + focus
It helps calm me down and puts things in perspective for me
To regulate the inner critic and all the voices
To help with my anxiousness in initiating sex
I’m hoping to learn how to meditate properly
Regulate inner critic and stop being anxious initiating sex
Build awareness of when my inner critic and negative thoughts are starting to avoid a spiral. Be less anxious when wanting to reach out to new connections, romantic or platonic
To be present and mindful in the moment. To learn to have thoughts without judgement and to exit the dazy daydream state i find myself constantly in.
What im really hoping for is to be able to quiet my over stimulated mind and regulate my stress levels.
