Committed to SDS for 100 days.

Hi everyone?
I have some free time and I decided to take my practices to the next level.

I’m going to do at least 2 hours a day in two separate sessions. Morning meditation focus on my breathing for 30mins and 90mins of SDS.

I’ve been doing it in the last 3 days and I notice that when things get painful I get lost in my thoughts.(Like always I guess?). 
I’m using the do nothing technique during the SDS session so even to focus on my breathing is against the rules.
Any suggestions? Tips will be welcomed :)

I use my breathe as an anchor. So it’s easy to keep focused this way. The “mystical” experiences usually happens afterwards.

@kag101 It’s very effective but I guess the key here is to stay aware. When u get lost with thinking try to let it go and if you can’t, be okay with it. The mind will stop by himself.

The idea is to fully accept the present moment without resisting anything. 

I’m feeling better in general and only a week passed. Consistency is king.

The point is to calm the mind. When you do nothing for an hour the mind doesn’t have stimulation and finally settles.
