I had practiced yoga since I was 19 but still couldn't meditate...
I never saw the value of meditation, what was the point of sitting and doing nothing?
I couldn’t still my mind or body, I felt anxious and frustrated when I tried to meditate, not peaceful
It felt easier to move my body and take action
Constantly moving felt more productive
I never really resonated with the idea of sitting in stillness
I was just moving quickly through my life, very un aware of my thoughts or emotions
I relived old patterns and get caught up in habits that I couldn't break
A victim to my circumstances
Often and irritated by how others treated me
Never feeling focused and rarely following through
I had a hard time committing to anything and often felt lots not having a clear direction in my life
I felt constant feelings of shame and guilt for not accomplishing enough
