“Why is it when I try to meditate, my mind wanders all over the place and I can’t seem to be still?”
We all struggle with this annoying little monster in our daily meditation practice. There’s this constant chatter going on in the back of our minds. The voice and circular, recycled thoughts that won’t seem to go away no matter how hard you try.
And who is that voice, by the way? We listen to it all the time and think it’s us. It is constantly narrating and talking and making judgments inside our head. And it never shuts up. It talks about, thinks about and judges everything and is never still. It has a need to express worries and doubts and anxieties and all the things it thinks you should be doing or shouldn’t have done, and on and on and on…
If you struggle with stillness in your mind, today’s show is for you!
Come on in…
