The hardest thing about meditation is actually doing it. I guess that’s obvious. What I mean to say is, the hardest thing about meditation is doing it consistently. I followed a program in a book called 8 Minute Meditation which I would recommend to anybody just starting out. The book lays out an eight week plan, and in this eight week plan you are asked to meditate for eight minutes everyday day. Each week, the author teaches you a new technique. It’s really a great book. Now that I’ve finished the book, I’m having trouble getting on a set schedule. I’ll miss days here and there. This is what I have to work on, consistency. One thing is for sure, whenever I do sit sown to meditate (and I dont feel rushed), it’s a very rewarding experience. In fact, a day at work after I meditate in the morning compared to a day at work without meditation is as different as night and day.
