This one is a bit harder than it looks tbh, but it's very good for enhancing focus.

My mind was an explosion of thoughts. I couldn't control the thinking and wandering of the mind.
I only ever made the counting up to 2 before my mind wandered off. 🙈
I haven't meditatated for the last week as I was on vacation. Maybe that has something to do with it. ☺️
Day 1. Day 2. Day 3. Day 4. Day 5. Day 6. Day 7. On the last day I was able to count to 5 numerous times without my mind wandering. ☺️🙏✨️

Always love Stephen's guided meditations. Gentle voice, gentle guidance, and plenty of silence to allow you to get into it. Thank you so much 🙏🏼

This always remains a difficult one haha even after years of practice. But great, thank you 💚

I felt a deep sense of focus, more than usual. Still, there are those many unwelcome intrusions into my thoughts, monkeys jumping around from branch to branch. These exercises are very helpful for me.
