The starting point

Meditation has been revolving around me for serval years, although it had never been an important part of me. I might do it on a fine sunny day when I feel like it, but not the other days when more important things were on my schedule.

I was using HeadSpace.com. This platform contains meditation soundtracks intertwined with mindfulness practices such as thought diary. The exercdises are easy to follow, and the platform has a delightful interface.

I used their service for about a year. I did notice some rather subtle changes if they’re not unnoticeable at all.

Don’t get me wrong. Headspace is an awesome platform. I just lacked the impetus to do it every day.

Mediation is much like going to the gym or eating healthily, doesn’t work until it becomes a habit. That was why I didn’t have much chemistry with HeadSpace.

I knew meditation is a nice thing to do, but I felt I didn’t need it. At times, what we need is not the best book or the best piece of advice, but some words that touch our soul in the present moment. What didn’t work before might work in the present; what will work in the future might not work in the present.

For me, meditation didn’t change much, but then it did.

Stick to it for real changes.
