I’ve been meditation almost daily for 15-20 minutes the last 1.5 months. I enjoy the pratice, and it is nice and relaxing, however I find the changes, if any, to be very subtle (to the point that they might as well be placebo).

Curious to hear your experiences.

    It doesn’t give superpowers or anything, it’s more of a reminder to be present. If you think meditating is going to give you mastery of your problems in life then that’s the wrong way to look at it IMO, I use it to spot-treat lack of focus or general anxiety and it works well enough for me at that.

      That resonates with my experience as well. I think I still have some ways to go with regards to lack of focus. But it feels like I’ve become more aware in general.
