I like to follow along with this. It keeps a cadence to my stillness. It also forces me to breathe slowly and deeply in order to mimic it.
As far as thoughts,sometimes its easy to release them as fast as they come;other times hard. Main thing is don’t get impatient with yourself, it’s an exercise that gets easier with time and consistency. There are time Ive gone 10-15 minutes without a thought and just being immersed in the moment meditating outside.
