Meditation changed my life

[Tine]

The first meditation course I took was at university, and it was a colossal disaster.

I had read Jack Kerouac's "The Dharma Bums" and "On The Road" and, as it turned out, I was not ready to sit still and face the discomfort with equanimity.
It should take another 20 years until I finally got into it. That's over eight years of meditation now, during which profound changes in my life and personality took place.
I tried many other spiritual practices, and for me, the path is a mindful life and Vipassana meditation as the concrete daily practice.

Hi

The inner peace is the piece that has always been missing, people have tried numerous ways to find it, but only some seemed to have found it. Allow....please allow me to make it easier for you.

Hello bien le bonjour, moi aussi je me suis récemment mis à la méditation suite à un grand manque de confiance et moi et un manque de concentration. J'ai beaucoup appris sur youtube et sur des blogs franchement, après 2 mois de méditation quotidienne, je commence à reprendre goût à la vie ! Je me suis même procuré tout un arsenal d'objets liés à la méditation (encens/porte encens/coussin de méditation/pendentif...). 
Voici les sites qui m'ont beaucoup aidé pour mes débuts dans la méditation : https://je-medite.fr/ et https://www.meditationfrance.com/
En espérant t'aider !

Meditation helps me a lot too. I started with mindfulness meditation. First few years trying it out allone with the guidance of the books, mostly from Jon Kabat-Zinn, which I can highly recomment. Now I am practicing with a Zen community. Here I come to see how important it is to have an authentic and compationate teacher, who can guide you on the path. It changes my life profoundly in a positive way.

 

Paraphrasing other teachers: Happiness is found in your mind, not outside.

 

Wishing you all the best on your journey,
