Have you ever said, "I can't meditate.  I have a constant monkey mind". 

Well, you are not alone.  Meditation is not about stopping your thoughts.  It is about focusing your attention on the present moment.  It is the act of being, not doing. It is about observing and not reacting.  

Meditation is a practice.  Every time you meditate you benefit from it even if you do not notice any changes at first.  The benefits are accumulative. 

In this podcast, I talk about how to set yourself up for a successful meditation practice. The key here is consistency.  It is more beneficial to meditate for 10 minutes every day then meditating once a week for 1 hour.   

Remember: practice, practice and practice.
