Day 1 - 3/18/07
I have finally begun the all important phase of maintaining a clear, relaxed state of mind. My first day of meditation started with no difficulties. Beginning from 10pm and ending at 11pm. My meditation location of choice is my two seater couch with in my room; I do have to find a new position of resting my arms in order to be more comfortable and relaxed.
Strangely enough, I was anticipating myself completing my first session of meditation with in a mere 10 to 15 minutes; but this particular session lasted a whole hour, with me having absolutely no clue that 1 hour passed. During my first session, I have immediately noticed how much of a challenge it was to keep my mind clear. Rouge images and thoughts of recent and past happenings still made their way into my state of mind; but with the help of some music, I was able to visualize my mind "rebooting" to keep my mind clear. Towards the end of that hour, I was able to sustain a clear mind with very minor amounts of rouge images and thoughts making their way in for a few minutes.
With a steady daily meditation routine, I should be able to maintain a clearer mind for longer periods of time; my goal is to maintain it for infinite periods.
I will be keeping up a more thorough hand-written journal to better coordinating myself.
