By treating thoughts as if they were clouds that I could just brush to one side, I reached a very pleasant state of peace.
Pretty quiet or able to come back
Although my minds a bit cloudy right now, it was surprisingly calm during this exercise. I’ve meditated a fair amount in the past and forgot how good it feels.
It just doesn’t stop.

It’s always wandering
Was able to think about things Id normally stress over more but with out the stress
I wasn’t able to be as much of an observer as I was the last time I did this. Not sure why?
It can get very erratic, fast speed and shift from one idea or feeling to the other
The one moment when my mind is relatively quiet.
A lot of the time it was quiet, thoughts come up then go constantly,but it always comes back to thst calmed state.
My mind was all over the place, but it calmed down and wasn’t so loud.
A fleeting thought made me become angry. Very unnerving to see it happening from the watcher’s perspective.
It was nice to be able to let the mind wander for the full time. It was like recess. Instead of coming back to the breath.
Always planning for the worst possible future.
Just thinking about random scenarios that could happen in the future
lots of rrandom thoughd. eventually calmed down.
It was a bit of a hard concept to wrap my head around, I did it right and I did observed the randomness of my thought pattern
Didn’t feel like an observer, felt more like I was first person POV rather than 3rd person POV if that makes sense
I had practiced meditation before to help with other anxiety and it’s such a helpful tool. I haven’t don’t it in a while so I wasn’t able to view my monkey brain from a outside perspective the whole time
pretty unfamiliar. but i’ll try it again
