“I expected meditation to make my mind quiet… but it made it louder at first.”
I started meditation expecting a calm, quiet mind.
But instead, I noticed the opposite — more thoughts, more memories, more noise in my head than usual.
At first I thought I was doing it wrong because it didn’t feel peaceful at all.
Now I’m starting to wonder if meditation is actually about noticing all this, not stopping it.
Is this normal in the beginning?
