Elysium Posted March 3 Today, while I was meditating to clear my thoughts, I sank in. Thats how I could explain the experience, my mind sank in and in and in. I wasn't sleeping, still had awareness, but there was no thoughts, or my body moved at all. I felt like a statue and it also felt really warm and good. Now that I believe is okay but now I am trying to read a book but can not concentrate? This "sank" feeling didn't completely vanish? Can anyone here give me some advice how to get out of the meditative state? I have to contiune my studies after all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The usual stuff, physical activity, cold shower, wash your face with plenty of water, drink coffee 🙂. The trick is to go out of a meditative state ( our of gamma or theta brainwaves depending on the meditation type ) but at the same retain your mindfulness during the working day. But first get out of the state , nvm mindfulness, to get your degree 😁 Edited March 3 by snowymountains 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah cold water fixed the issue ASAP. 57 minutes ago, snowymountains said: The trick is to go out of a meditative state ( our of gamma or theta brainwaves depending on the meditation type ) but at the same retain your mindfulness during the working day.

It would however, if I can't come out of these said states and then exam days come and I go "whuh" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But being on retreat and working a lot during the same day is a practical impossibility 😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
