Hey All,
I've been practising meditation for roughly a year now, I've been able to get up to 20 minutes a day. I've experimented with different types of meditations using apps like headspace, calm, 10% happier, 1giantmind. Recently I've been doing mostly single point focus meditations, where I just use a timer and focus on my breath for 20 minutes, and I've been feeling very focused and ready to go after the meditation session is done. But I tend to have a problem with daydreaming afterward. It seems like I tend to focus more on daydreaming about goals I have, instead of being in the present moment and focusing on my work for the day after my meditation practice. And I also feel like my threshold for patience has decreased. For example, if I go to a coffee shop and I'm standing in line, and I see the cashier taking orders slowly, it'll bug me more now than in the past prior to doing meditation.
Does anyone have some suggestions for what could be causing this? Is this something other people have experienced as well? And if so, what have you done to help fix these issues?
