If you’re anything like I used to be, you might have a busy mind that makes you think mindfulness & meditation aren’t possible for you. But there’s a trick-
If the point of your meditation is mindfulness- being aware of where your attention is- and you notice that it bounced off to someplace else… you’re doing it right.
The whole point is practicing bringing your attention back to where you wanted it. So if you’re listening to a mindful breathing meditation where the focus is paying attention to your breath, and you notice that you started planning tomorrow’s dinner and therefore today’s grocery shopping in your head — you just bring your attention back to your breath.
That was the whole point.
