Meditation apps tell you to focus on your breath. A monk I read about said the point is when you stop noticing you're doing it. That's the opposite advice and now I can't unsee it.

This guy meditated every day for a year and documented what actually changed about his brain using real scansspent three weeks meditating in silence and the worst part wasn't the quiet — it was realizing how much i talk just to avoid listening to myself think 🤔Been meditating for months waiting for the quiet mind thing. Realized today I'm just getting better at noticing when my thoughts are boring.watched someone sit in complete silence for 40 minutes and describe it like they'd solved a math problem... turns out the whole point was admitting they couldn't solve anything 🧠been meditating for like two months and the thing nobody tells you is that your brain gets louder first — before it gets quiet 🧠
