When Time Froze in Silence: Day 27 of Meditation

πŸŒ€ Meditation Day 27 – When Time Froze Hello and welcome back to my world — it’s officially Day 27 of my meditation journey, and yes, the path still continues with fresh layers of experience. So without wasting any more time, let’s dive into today’s meditation review. In a few words: it was better than yesterday . But if I try to stretch that sentence into something real and meaningful — viola! I experienced something entirely new today. Since it’s a Sunday, my routine was slightly different, a bit slower to begin with but kicked off on a positive note. Now let’s talk about sleep — I tried a trick recently to improve my sleep quality, and I’d say it worked about 50% . Not fully there, but enough to wake up without puffiness, grogginess, or body ache . That itself felt like a win. And because of that better sleep, I think something special happened during meditation. After about 10-15 minutes into the session, something started to shift. And here’s where I want to say something impor...

Even Stillness Needs Rest

🧘‍♂️ Meditation Journey – Day 26: When Meditation Feels Like Sleep Hello and welcome back to my world — the space where I continue this quiet, evolving journey of meditation. 🧘‍♀️ It’s officially Day 26 , and honestly, I can’t believe I’ve come this far. Somewhere deep inside, I can finally say it — this routine has now become a habit . That 30-minute slot, which once felt like a long, dragging effort, now flows so naturally. Yesterday and today, I noticed it — there was no feeling of waiting for time to pass, no internal resistance. Just calm presence. ⏳✨ Now let’s talk about today’s meditation review. If you ask me whether I had some deep experience or a moment of realization today — then no, not really. Still nothing extraordinary happened during the session. But something curious did happen — I can still vividly feel the sensation and presence of what I experienced two days ago . That moment of stillness… that space of clarity… it stayed with me, like a beautiful memory imprinte...

When Sleep Becomes the Missing Piece

🧘‍♂️ Meditation Journey – Day 25: When Sleepiness Sneaks In Hello and welcome once again to my meditation journey. It's officially Day 25 — and today’s experience? Well… it went kind of how I expected it to. Not much magic like yesterday, but that’s alright — not every day will come with a revelation. 🌀️ But here's something interesting I want to share. You know those days when your mind feels foggy, your body is dragging itself, and you can’t concentrate even though you’re sitting still and trying your best? Yeah, that was me today. At first, I thought — “Why is this happening again?” But then I tried to look at the situation from a different angle. Sometimes, when we feel stuck, it's not because there's no solution… it's because we're not noticing it. Our eyes (or maybe our inner vision ) just don’t catch it. So, what do we do? Do we just improve our eyesight? πŸ‘️ Haha, just kidding! But seriously — when faced with these dull moments, we always have t...

I Told My Mind to Spin… And It Did

🧘‍♂️ Day 24 – The Mind-Spinning Meditation That Blew My Mind Hello and welcome to my meditation journey—it’s officially Day 24 πŸ—“️ Without wasting any time, let’s jump straight into today’s meditation review. But first, a quick update on my July Challenge πŸ“’ This month hasn’t gone exactly how I planned. Unexpected disruptions hit me like surprise guests at a silent retreat πŸ˜… — a family vacation , the difficulty of reviving meditation after a long gap, and of course, my old frenemy: procrastination 🐌 So what’s the plan for the July Challenge now that half the month has already passed? Well... it’s simple. I’m going to shift the core challenge to August πŸŒ… But for July, I’m not backing off completely — I’ve decided to continue the meditation journey every single day. Why? Because I realized something powerful: If this challenge gives me results, then it deserves to become a lifestyle. A habit. A part of me. 🌱 You see, this challenge is like the universe itself — vast, endles...

Why I Don’t Regret Missing My Meditation

  πŸͺ· Meditation Blog - Day 23: A Mountain Pause & Honest Reflections Hello again, future me—and maybe a few beautiful strangers who decided to peek into my mind. Today is officially Day 23 of my meditation journey. But if we’re being completely honest… I haven’t been consistent the last few days. Why? Family vacation. Now, here's the thing—this break was not a failure. It was intentional. I think we often forget that this life isn’t just about grinding and hitting goals every single day. Sometimes, we need to pause to feel alive again. And honestly? That’s exactly what happened. I went to the mountains. I laughed like a kid again. I looked up at the sky and breathed with it. I soaked in a culture that was different, yet deeply familiar. And somewhere in that trip, I felt something shift—I think I might just be a mountain person. Maybe I always was. Or maybe… I just unlocked that part of me. Now, back to today. Meditation today? Honestly? It felt off. Like I had lost...

One Question, Endless Answers: My Meditation Realization

🧘‍♂️ Day 22: Meditation Is Like Making a Sandwich 🍞 Hello and welcome to my world — it's officially day 22 of my meditation journey. As usual, if I review today’s meditation, I’d say it was pretty good. I could actually feel that subtle “something” I’ve been missing lately — that quiet presence we all search for during meditation. And then came the question I always ask myself after each session: “What did I learn from today’s meditation?” And every time, the answer surprises me. It’s always different — sometimes deep, sometimes simple, but never the same. And that makes me wonder how one question can offer so many answers. If you're going through something similar and wondering if that’s normal — well, let me tell you, it absolutely is. πŸ₯ͺ Meditation Is Like Making a Sandwich Let me explain it this way — imagine you’ve never cooked before, and one day you decide to make a sandwich. You don’t have a guide, just some vague steps. There’s a high chance your first sandwich will...

From Meditation to Modern Monkhood: The Transition Begins

  🧘‍♂️ Day 21: Silence, Scheduling & a Sneak Peek into July Hello to the world, it’s officially Day 21 of my meditation journey — and today, I have a lot to share. 🎀 Let me be honest — I’ve fallen a bit behind on the schedule. Things didn’t go as smoothly as I imagined, but you know what? That’s okay. If you remember my very first blog, I already warned you: the beginning is always the messiest . That’s just part of the process. 🧘‍♂️ Today's Meditation: Simple, Tough, and Rejuvenating Today’s meditation session felt like a mix of emotions — simple , tough , and rejuvenating . That’s what happens when you momentarily lose your grip but still choose to sit down and continue. I’m proud I did. 🎬 A Movie Question Answered Remember in Blog 16 , I asked you a question about the movie Perfect Days ? The question was: What kind of meditation lies hidden in that film? I gave you time to reflect before I revealed the answer. And here it is now — it's Silence Meditation ....
