Increasing the skillfulness of my mind, log (2025)
Date & Time: Sat 2025-08-02 21:30
Duration: 1 hour
Technique: Ānāpānasati (Anapanasati)
Summary of the Sit:
- Hella distracted, you know me
- I do think I can notice my nostril sensations a bit more now though…
Key Takeaway / Question:
- Where am I in the “Mind Illuminated” framework? What should I be focusing on right now?
- I feel like somehow since starting meditation again, I’ve totally “got” the thing of “the whole point as a beginner is the moment when you remember to come back to the breath, so there’s no need to be mad at yourself for being distracted, it’s 100% to be expected. As long as you’re “remembering” dozens of times a day, you’re getting your reps in, trust the process
