People often comment – “I can’t meditate” – “I don’t know how to do it right” – “I can’t stop my thoughts when I meditate” – “I’m not good at it” – “I know I’m meant to do it but I find it so boring”.
The reason why you may find meditation frustrating, boring, a chore, confusing, or challenging, is because you’re trying to use methods that may not suit your preferences or abilities. Contrary to popular belief, meditation can be fun and dynamic. Once you have busted the myths and gained clarity on what meditation actually is you can ditch the boredom and powerfully choose a style that suits you. This is when it becomes effective and blissful.
