Meditation is not torture
Meditation! Much hated by many with BPD I imagine. I tried it many times and felt being alone with my thoughts was to much to bare. However after practising 5 minutes once a week. I know very small right?! Anyway I managed to learn the true point to meditation. Or at least why it was useful to individuals living with BPD. So your mind wanders whilst meditating right and you bring your mind back to thinking about your breathing and thinking about we’re your sitting noticing your finger tips etc. it’s no different to when your not meditating, your mind wanders away from trying to relax watching tv and starts to convince you, you are a bad person. You then bring your mind back to resting and watching tv and speak to your inner child and say I hear how you feel but we’re resting at the moment. That is what meditation is! At least for me, a reminder that I can bring myself back as many times a day as I want. #Superhero
