Frequently asked questions

I can't empty my mind. Am I meditating wrong?

No. Meditation isn't about emptying the mind, but about noticing thoughts without getting caught up in them. Realizing your mind has wandered and bringing your attention back is the practice happening.

How long should I meditate each day?

Even 5 to 10 minutes a day brings benefits. Consistency matters more than duration. An instructor can help you build a routine you can sustain.
