I started to meditate a few years ago. Like many people, I thought that we have just sit, cross our legs and life becomes "zen". The reality is that when we settle, we are assailed by sensations, images, emotions, thoughts ... When we meditate, we face the physical pain, fears, anxieties, regrets of the past, the incessant chatter of the mind ... counting breaths... and little by little, calm settles down, it is no longer the chaos of our unbridled mind, we start to see more clearly.
