How was meditating for that long?

It was a good length though I will work up to longer sessions.

For me it’s about finding what time to be consistent so when ‘life’ happens I can still manage to do it (on most days). At the moment I can do it during lunch break in work or before going to sleep. Find it hard to fit into my life any other time.

Up until now, I felt anxiety driven. I prioritized my day/life around the things that stressed me most, rather than the things I enjoyed the most. I started the day mentally listing the things that stressed me most, prioritized them, realized I felt overwhelmed and somewhat helpless, then set out to work on them, like a soldier trudging through mud to do battle. Next day the same. Now I start the day quelling the imagined thoughts of stress using logic, think of the things I’m grateful for, and allow the day to unfold without feeling like I have to control it.

Just right. I moved up to 10 minutes and it was fine. I’ll stay here for a bit.

I am going to do 15 minutes next time. I found 10 was too short.

I will do 15 next time

5 was to little so going to do 10 next time

5 mins feels right for now. I will try to go to 10 later.

10 twas good

5 is good for now. I like the idea of 10 but I feel my mind would wonder more

5 min is too short. Need to do longer.

10 minutes is good for now. Totally relaxed

Feel good for a first five minutes

Will do 10 minutes next time, 5 minutes to short

10 was a good length. Maybe 15 would be better.

5 was too short, will do 10 next time

This amount of time or longer!

Will stick to five. Can be quite easy to switch off, but I’m not sure how I could use this doing sex, my focus would switch from any excited feelings to almost wanting to go to sleep

Meditation thoroughly relaxes me. I think I need to do longer but definitely enjoying this.

Will do a longer time
