Hello all,
33 year old man here. Recently started meditating semi regularly. I have started with guided meditations from YouTube. 5 minutes here, 10 minutes there, etc. What I have found through doing these meditations is this profound sensation of peace. To the point where towards the end of these guided meditations I get somewhat emotional because that feeling just radiates from my chest out until thats all I can feel.
My question is, I have been told that getting emotional during meditation makes it, in fact, not meditation. The individual who told me this is someone I trust and has a lot more experience than I do in this area. They said that point of meditation is to just be and watch yourself from a different perspective. So have I been doing this wrong?
