I’m making a better effort to meditate, but I don’t know if I’m doing it right. Focusing on my breathing and releasing thoughts is hard and if I relax too much, I fall asleep.

If you have related issues when meditating, have you found better ways to meditate or alternatives that give you similar results?

      Yeah, people who love meditation and try to get others to do it kind of forget that whatever transcendence they’ve experienced is fundamentally rooted in becoming more attumed to themselves.

      Which is actually pretty much the definition of irony, I think?

      Heck I think “you’ll love & understand yourself more” is probably a better selling point than “you’ll experience a higher level of being.” I think I can understand the former, but the latter is just incomprehensive.
