Meditation

I've been making an effort at a regular meditation schedule lately partially to help alleviate the ambient stress that's around right now partially because it just makes me feel good. It's something that people often don't talk about but meditation can be almost addictive. YOu get this amazing feeling of calm and suspension in time and space that you just want to prolong as much as possible. I'm still having a bit of trouble with trying to nod off but that's usually only bad when I really haven't gotten enough sleep. I used to think that I wasn't capable of meditating in the eastern way so I mainly stuck with guided meditation which is something I still practice regularly. But if you start with short sessions of 5 min both Insight Timer and Headspace start you off like this and even if that's all you do it will still be beneficial though I think most people will find that euphoric state to be as seductive as I do.
