Guided meditation is really good for beginners. Look on youtube

Meditation significantly strengthens your willpower and focus. It's a natural adderall.

Meditation is medication without the t. Focus on breathing or even have some white noise in background. It takes practice.

For how long do I need to do it considering that I am the kind of person that cant stay for more than 10 minutes away from a fucking computer or a distraction?

>>16593510
11 minutes.

For real senpai?

No you idiot. the whole point of meditation is to not having anything in mind. If you meditate with the goal of reaching a certain mindset and are bored or bothered when you can't reach it then it'll do you no good. Focus solely on your breath. Visualize your breath going in and out of your body. When you have a thought just let it pass without thinking anything of it or passing judgment on it. Focus on your breath and let your thoughts flow freely without acknowledging them and eventually it will come easy. It has to be part of your daily routine. With long term practice it will be very beneficial

>For real senpai?
No. 10 minutes is totally fine. I usually start to fell "on the zone" within 3-`4 minutes of meditating.

Meditation is proven to improve brain healing and something about grey matter regeneration.
Basically whenever you are in a heightened state where you can do anything, meditation hones this state so it's more achievable in command. Why monks always pull amazing stunts.

Sure you are buddy. So smart that you need to tell anonymous image board posters how smart you are, and get angry the second someone calls you an idiot. So smart you can't even meditate. Checks out. Sorry I didn't know I was in the presence of a genius.

Gee, you sure did a good job of sounding like a complete idiot. You seem really insecure about your stupidity. Also way to lie about what you do just to seem smarter to strangers on the internet. The only thing you're engineering is shitposts.

Who are you trying to convince. Me or you? Because it sounds like you're incredibly insecure about yourself, and trying to convince yourself that you aren't completely worthless by claiming to be an engineer. No matter what you say or do you will never be better or smarter than anyone. If you died right now nobody would bat an eye. You are the epitome of worthless and your attempts to convince yourself otherwise are laughable. Invest in a toaster and a bathtub.

Nigga, you made me laugh


OP is a faggot.

But on a serious note, whenever I meditate (generally for about 10-20 minutes) I leave them feeling especially sleepy. Don't know how normal this is.

I usually do them an hour after I've woken up and eaten breakfast.

>>16595069

Did you just called me a faggot for what that unintelligent non engineer idiot said?

Fuck you

Hi /adv/,

Long story short, I just got recently laid off from a 'real' job and am doing some enjoyable side projects (not sustainable just enough to keep me afloat for now). However, I have saved up a lot of money and would like to do something adventurous like backpacking in a foreign country, do something in a small village in Africa/other 3rd world area for 6ish months.

I never cared about society's rat race expectations (YOU NEED A REAL JOB! YOU NEED TO BE MARRIED BY NOW!!! etcetcetc) I am in my 20's, naturally optimistic and charismatic, meditate almost daily, and have the classic loner personality but I don't know anybody who has done something like this.

So I was wondering if anybody here has this experience and could give me some start up advice?

>>16595108

Well memed friend!

But why so mad?
