At the age of 62 I have had many life adventures and mishaps. I’ve been lucky to have had a great life filled with laughter, fun, family and risk taking. But 4 months ago I stumbled over something which has had a profound effect on my life.
Finding new things as you get older is harder than when you are young. So I was very surprised to discover the benefits of meditation in the later afternoon of my life.
i found an application for my iPhone that was getting rave reviews. It is meditation app that takes you from being a raw beginner to however deep you want to go. I downloaded the app and did the introductory course - wow, I was hooked. The app is called Headspaceand that’s exactly what it has given me.
I now meditate twice a day and have been doing so for 4 months. Initially 3 minutes was all I could do in a session but now I can do 15-20 minutes at a sitting and I’m sure this will improve.
The interesting thing to me is the difference it has made to my general well being and health. I am more relaxed, positive and happy than I have ever been.
I wish I’d taken it up much earlier!!
Hi @drkelp It is nice to see you improve your posts. You implemented a picture as well this time. Good job. I recommend that you take pictures yourself. If you use somebody else's material please quote ( pictures as well as text) I had a hard time learning this in the beginning. There are some people here on steemit that will flag your posts if you don't do that. I had to learn it the hard way.
Otherwhise good job. Keep it up.
Are you still measuring your progress with the app or are you just meditating now?
