Do you even meditate bro?

[beastman88]

well do you? i just started basically, i want to free myself from the mental prison that is myself. just you and your mind and nothing else. being able to calm the storm that is your mind. totally relaxing the mind, while simultaneously relaxing your entire body. i find it to be very relaxing and tend to incorporate it after my daily stretches. so turn off your tv, or whatever it is you're doing and actually invest time into yourself, by yourself or with someone else. sharing the experience can be good to. but just being able to separate your mind from the monotony of life is awesome, everybody should do it. people would be more chilled out i think if they did. too many people living in their ignorance, totally unaware of the mental damage they do to others, "psychic vampires" or "energy thieves" but thats a different topic entirely.

i also have a theory that we dont really sleep but a form of meditation to be able to restore ourselves for the next day. so i guess we have all been meditating all our lives, at least i think.

I do, but not regularly. I'll use it so that I can go through "letting go" exercises for my emotions. And to calm my mind for sleep if I just can't get my brain to shut off. If you understand how computers work. You open up windows and different pages throughout the day and there are hundreds of pages that are open in the background that you never see. All those pages do is slow down the computer. Your brain is the same way and meditating is good for closing each of those pages.
It's amazing when you feel like you can't focus and suddenly you can just switch off and come back to focusing on one thing

excellent analogy, like your thinking!

Damn son, I dig it. I meditate sometimes.

Honestly, listening to certain types of conscious/positive rap is like meditation for me. Not anything mainstream or that trap/violent shit, but the real conscious stories that explain feelings and alllll that. I usually listen to them on long walks or while out in nature or something.

It's like... poetry set to music, at least to me. So dope. I love the messages.

L i L B always comes to mind, dude is a fucking inspiration.

Stay based, my friend.

I've never done meditation, but I do yoga which helps me clear my mind.

I've been meditating for years now. It's the single greatest thing I've ever done for myself. I've even incorporated it into my sex life- that's how awesome it is.

[Themoonlitsky]

I meditate at least once a week. Usually after yoga class.
