  • I tried it once using a meditation app I don’t remember the name of. It didn’t really do much for me other than temporarily relax me until I got back to work or whatever I was doing. But sometimes I do a basic meditation method when I have trouble falling asleep. The idea behind it is to try and clear your mind and think of nothing. Unfortunately I can’t empty my head completely.

    What I do instead is trying to force everything out of my mind best I can and picture a balloon. Focusing on it alone, imagining it inflating when I breath in and deflate when I breath out. Doesn’t work every time but it’s given me the most success. Making me relaxed enough to allow myself to fall asleep easier.





  • This Discuss community isn’t specifically to talk about this one Lemmy instance. It’s to talk about anything and everything. For example the fact that Vlemmy unfortunately had to shut down without notice. I hadn’t visited that instance but it always sucks when things suddenly go away.
