30 Day Meditation Challenge – Day 14

Today’s sessions went very well! The ten minute sessions are going by in no time, so I’m thinking about increasing each session to 15 minutes. It’s funny to think back to the first few days and remember how torturous each session felt. Now, sitting for ten minutes is a piece of cake, and I even sometimes find myself craving meditation and thinking about adding a third session to each day. I am so much calmer now, when I meditate, and don’t get distracted as easily. This morning I meditated to the sound of dogs barking, pigeons squaking and the washing machine running, and I managed to keep up my concentration. Something strange happened this morning. A few minutes into the meditation  I no longer felt like I was in my entire body, but rather my entire being felt like it was located in my head. My head felt much lighter and brighter, and I almost felt as if my consciousness wanted to expand past my head. I experienced the same sensation during the evening meditation.
