If you are Gen X then you get the reference to the old Carmen Sandiego game. If you read my stuff regularly then you'll have noticed I've been writing fewer posts per day and they've been pretty generic. Well the past 2 months...

Jimbo45 @NJChicaa I believe that. You are funny I know this I think of your counselor tried very hard to get you to stay longer that she did really think you need it, or, would further benefit from it. They don't waste resources. I hope you are better, If you...

Fleur I tried many years ago. The 'empty your mind' part is my stumbling block. How is that even possible? My mind is always full of things! As soon as I stop thinking about one thing in particular then I just think about everything else!

Four Walls Yes, I’ve used mindfulness meditation for years since I went to a class on it offered by a women’s veterans club in town. I don’t know about other kinds of meditation, though.
