Why can I only meditate for a few minutes?
-
It's common to have difficulty meditating for an extended period when you're starting out. Meditation requires mental focus and discipline, which can be challenging at first. It's important to be patient with yourself and gradually increase your meditation time as you build your practice. Remember that consistency is more important than duration when it comes to meditation. Start with just a few minutes each day and gradually add more time as you become more comfortable and focused. You may also find it helpful to set a timer, create a peaceful environment, and focus on your breath to help extend your meditation practice. Keep practicing, and over time you will likely find it easier to meditate for longer periods.
