Three years of daily meditation!
Today I am celebrating three years of a daily meditation practice.
Meditation changed my life in so many ways. I am a completely different person now. I used to be so negative and pessimistic. Always focusing on what was wrong in the world. Living in the past, stressing about the future. Trying to control everything and everybody. Desperately trying to make people love me. Miserable and blaming the world. Full of anger and resentment. Stuck in a victim mentality. Completely reactive. I was a mess.
Three years ago today, I set a small goal to meditate five minutes every day for 30 days. During those 30 days I had a couple breakthroughs. I continued to meditate daily, but i started to increase the duration when five minutes started to feel like it was flying by. After 3 months I had another breakthrough. By 6 and 9 months I had a few more. By a year I was sold on the whole thing, and since then I’ve skyrocketed to inner bliss. The breakthroughs continue to happen.
I have grown so much spiritually and emotionally. I am no longer reactive. I no longer have any attachments to outcomes. I no longer try to control people or situations. I go with the flow. I feel blissed out for no reason most of the time. I feel love and abundance above all else. My anger is gone. My resentment is gone. I’ve overcome crippling mental health issues, as well as addictions. I’ve gotten off medications I didn’t think I’d ever get off of. I’ve learned self love. I’ve learned to listen to my gut and my intuition. I’ve watched the miracles pour in.
I have been single the entire time, just focusing on myself and my growth. Celibate for a lot of it. I feel completely transformed. Totally awake and in tune. I’m in the flow. I don’t worry or stress. I still have my triggers but I don’t experience feelings of fight or flight, and my triggers are fewer and farther between. I am healing in ways I never thought possible. And all I am doing is sitting in stillness, going inward and listening to my inner guides. I’m healing my inner child just by taking the time every day to go inward. It’s free. It’s beneficial. It’s the greatest gift I’ve ever given myself and my family.
If I can do this anyone can. If I can transform like I have via meditation, anyone can. Trust me. It’s so worth it.
Meditation for life.
