Thank you for this guided meditation. It took me a while, but I was definitely able to feel the different sensations that came with past memories and future planning.

I did have an unrelated question though, recently I realised I've had more distracting thoughts during my unguided meditations but despite this, they were all very subtle, and most of my focused attention is still on the breath. Is this a normal progression or should I be trying harder to follow the GOSS Formula?

Thanks again.

I have so many beautiful past memories. ❤️ The present is also always wonderful. The future did not feel scary but inspiring although it did feel a little heavy. I guess as we don't know what the future holds it is not so easy to deal with. I will continue for 7 days and see how this developes. Thank you Stephen. 🙏
Day 1. Day 2. Day 3. Day 4. Day 5. Day 6. Day 7.

Again, another insightful lesson. I enjoyed the thought exercises of focusing on past, present, and future experiences. I hope this will eventually allow me to better stay present in the moment, even when not meditating. Thank you again for these well-organized lessons.

This is wonderful. Thank you!

This program is excellent as a whole and I particularly found this one very revelatory. Gratitude
