I do meditate in the morning and at night before I go to sleep for 15 minutes each session, although I am not sure just how successful this is. I have definitely noticed a reduction in the 'loudness' of my thoughts and the ability they have to control me. With that said, the actual quantity and regularity of thoughts doesn't seem to have diminished all that much, so my mind is pretty much thinking something 24/7. I suppose the next step is to just keep going further and to improve my ability to silence my mind more fully. There is still that restlessness that I feel at the thought of meditation which I was hoping would have gone away by now, but no such luck it seems. It may sound strange, but meditation can almost feel exhausting at times haha. Hmmmm, I may give your technique a go and see if it has any positive effects. What is your meditation routine Marc? Any recommendations?
Also, when practicing this technique should we focus our gaze on a single point or just look around? I have tried using such a technique whilst looking in a mirror but I find it hard to concentrate on a single point and instead kind of shift my eyes around every couple of seconds if that makes sense.
