My first noticeable change was that I realized I had only thought about myself and not others. I only cared about my own suffering. I always thought I was a very good person, but as I started this meditation I could see that I only cared about doing things at my own convenience. I discovered so much more about myself and how I truly was.

Because of this meditation my daily life has completely changed. The first thing I noticed that started to disappear was road rage. I used to get so annoyed at people on the road that it would give me anxiety, but now that my perspective has changed driving is peaceful no matter who cuts me off on I-95.

Oh, definitely this one: It was the first time I truly threw away a picture. I was holding on to my memory of a classmate from kindergarten – Can you believe that? Kindergarten. That’s 20 years ago! My mind would drift back to that moment at least once a month. I would replay the conversations in my mind and agonize about how I should have said or done things differently.

One of the most profound changes early on was that I started taking things less personally. Especially at work, I had always worried what others thought of me. After a few weeks of practicing this meditation, I had more confidence and stability within myself and wasn’t so preoccupied with other people’s judgments of me. In turn, I could also see the good in those around me, and began to work much more collaboratively.

The more that I have faith in the process, the more gratitude I have for this meditation method even existing, and to the guides here for shining a light on what was once a dark and lonely path for me. This gratitude allows me to see the value in every obstacle I encounter, knowing it is steering me towards a destination of infinite potential.
