Meditation for people with a lot of unresolved trauma can actually be quite stressful. Bringing yourself into your body is very hard when you experience a lot of dissociation. It’s ok if you are not at the right stage to get into it. But once you start to create psychological safety for yourself, you might find you are more amenable to meditation.
Meditation is such a powerful tool to refocus and zone in in the task at hand. I need to continue to practice until I am Harry Potter level.
I’ve only use basic meditation to calm my self

Meditation got me through a lot of hard times in covid. I was using it to center myself and to free my mind of racing thoughts and anxiety. I do enjoy it a lot.

I do think that meditation has helped me to relax a little and to focus on the present.
Hoping to get rid of my sexual anxiety through this
I’m hoping for being able to clear my head on command
It definitely helps calm me. I just can’t seem to make time for it like I should.
Always worked well but never had the discipline to do it long term
Tried a couple of times, but never persisted or committed. Hoping I can create a routine to benefit me in my everyday life
It never did much for me, but I’m older and more intentional now, maybe it’ll be different. TBD.
The ability to get my mind into a state of ease and away from fight or flight response
I’ve done lots of meditation in the past, but not with any clear direction nor purpose.
I have a daily meditation practice, but these lessons are giving me more tools to practice and ones that specifically support easing my current difficulties with sex.
I’ve tried mindfulness and meditation exercises in the past, but always either find my mind to be too noisy or fall asleep. This has led me to dismiss it.
Haven’t tried yet
