Thank you Hugh, I have been both enjoying and learning a lot from these meditations. What I really got aware of are urges and distractions that have become linked especially to my meditation practices. That was very helpful and I appreciate that I can now sit and know that I am “quite normal” even when my mind races, preparing for the next ‘to do’ or instead of being here and now. I hope to be able to get over my bad habit of procrastination with help of your meditations here on Insight Timer. Thank you!
