Meditation is incorrectly assumed by many to be the practice of controlling one's thoughts.

Instead, meditation rests on the most fundamental truth
We cannot control our thoughts.

What we can do instead, is to be aware of our thoughts.

Mindfulness thus isn't about thinking more clearly about the experience.

Mindfulness is about EXPERIENCING more clearly.
Including how our thoughts arise as well.

If I were asked, which 2 things have completely altered your life meaningfully, it will be
Meditating & working out

I started working out when I turned 32
I started meditation at 36

It is never too late to begin respecting your mind and body.

A thread I wrote on how at the age of 32 I was "thrown" into fitness https://twitter.com/warikoo/status/1263731366857973760?s=20

I haven't dared to write a thread on Meditation, so sharing what I think is a great start https://twitter.com/naval/status/1261481222359801856?s=20
