Hello Bring4th. I am a university student, and over the past few weeks, I have begun to experience a number of mental obstacles. I am wondering if this is the result of some blockage within the 7 energy centers, or if there is some form of meditation or prayer that may assist in moving past these obstacles.
I will describe these mental obstacles. I am usually a successful student. I have lost my ability to focus on tasks which require mental labor. I can watch videos or play recreational games, but where reading is concerned, I find myself struggling to process more than 10 pages before losing focus. More recently, I struggle to even begin the work. For example, I will look at a page of Latin which is to be translated. I know exactly which steps are to be taken in order to translate it. However, instead, I spend 5 minutes staring at the page as the words swim around before giving up. There are periods of time where this inability to focus is more intense which I would best describe as a mental fog. Sometimes I will be speaking to another person like so:
"My day has been..."
The next word I want to say is "good", however, even though the word is in my mind, I am unable to say it. This happens from time to time.
Thank you for reading. Your ideas and insight are much appreciated.
