It takes time and a lot of hard work to clear the mind. Once you get the hang of it, you will be able to do it with no problems. The mind loves to fill itself up with chatter.
hmmm that does sound interesting i just cant seem to hold still for that long
I meditate everyday! Sometimes I will meditate up to an hour. If you have a hard time clearing your mind, try meditating with music. There is a great varity of music on youtube. You can upload a few video's on your play lists and play them one after another without any interruptions.
thank-you ill lok into it.
