2 Hour Meditation Challenge 🧘‍♂️

@DonaldDraper the way i see it, meditation is when i am totally involved in a creative work, when i am feeling constantly in an inspired mood!

longest i think was 3-4 hours, though my aim is to be in this mood 24/7

Can relate with you

@Fristo, I have never looked upon meditation the way you see it. But now that I think of it , I agree. The goal is to relax and get ourselves to a better mindspace after all!!

@Fristo

That does sound like being fully involved in the moment.. being fully alive!

That sounds like a good idea 24/7

@DonaldDraper

Mhhm 2 hours is long, I dont think I can do that. The longest I have done is 30 minutes so maybe I'll challenge myself for 1 hour. If i try 2 hours im definitely gonna fall asleep🤣

@SoothingHope okay, 1 hour. And maybe when you complete it you can try for 2 hours in future

@DonaldDraper

What's the longest you have meditated for so far? ~1 hour
What has been your experience? ~I felt lighter like my mind and heart doesn't feel as heavy
Do you take on the 2 hour meditation challenge? ~I would haha it would be like a nap

@DonaldDraper I've done two hours once.My butt felt like stone...even with the cusion!

@YesYouMatter wow, I wasn't expecting that hehe. But really, big Kudos for completing 2 hours 😀

Doing something we enjoy can be called as mindfulness. As we are using our whole mind in that activity.
Meditation is different as it trains your mind to focus on nothing but on itself.

@DonaldDraper

Maybe mindfulness is like focusing and meditation is like training our minds to be in that state for long? 🤔 Not sure xD but I think I’ll doze off if I try to meditate for that long!

But yess.. well done to all who finished the challenge!! 👏👏🥳

@DonaldDraper, thank you for getting it straight! I didn't know the difference. Will check out the link ^^

@DonaldDraper

Sorry Pass. Meditation is not about number of hours.

@positiveWind451 True, wind. What is your view?
