July 31, Day 1 of @naval’s 60-60 routine. Started 7am, fasted. First time feeling 60 minutes. Urge to open eyes and check timer, so many thoughts, sad, happy, mini chaos or mini panic, unfinilar silence by the time the timer rang. #meditation #innerpeace

.@naval’s 60/60 meditation. Day 2, Going through a bad breakup so lots of heavy thoughts. Painful, waves of heavy emotions. I get exhausted at the end, this time, came 5 min short, I did the meditation after a 6k run. Struggle goes on. #meditation #healing

Day 3 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation quest. Emotional roller coaster, very very rough moments, urge to scream at times..but also some very short absolute still moments, very short though. #meditation #selfhealing

Day 4 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. First 5-10 mins looked like a white space, white everywhere, no thoughts were able to emerge, felt nice. That followed by a tsunami of emotions and memories, a lot of pain, tears, but I made it through. #meditation #selfheal

Day 5 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. I must say, generally much calmer, had some rage episodes coming through, then calmness, then I noticed tears in my cheeks, it was emotional, remembered faces..I got very tired towards the end. #meditation #innerpeace #selfhealing

Day 6 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. It was very different today, maybe due to lack of sleep, nothing really was going on. I felt extremely sleepy, wanted to quit but didn’t. At the end was ran over by a wave of emotions and memories, extremely intense. #meditation

1 week of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. So much noise in my head, I get exhausted towards the end. So many memories resurfaced, so so many of them. Hold on to your memories! #meditation #selfhealing #innerpeace #selflove

8 days in to @naval’s meditation journey. I started later than usual. Things have changed in my mind, it’s mostly memories now, re-living so many memories, clarity, sadness, I can’t explain but the past two days have been different. #meditation #selfhealing #selflove

Day 9 ✅ of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. It felt good today, it’s more calm, defiantly not as chaotic as early days. Still get a bit restless towards the very end but it’s getting better. But memories...so many of them. #meditation #peaceofmind #innerpeace

Day 10 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ Today was very challenging, however it was also expected, I knew today would be difficult. Had to be done. Not much to say, will move on, tomorrow is another day. #meditation #selfhealing #innerpeace

Day 11 ✅ @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey. Rollercoaster ride. Ups and downs, suppressed some memories, it was very non organized this time. But definitely a emotional rollercoaster ride. Staying strong and keep pushing through. #meditation #innerpeace #peaceofmind

Day 12 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I started later than usual, horrible, it was very rough, new revelations, more pain, grief, this is not easy. It feels like I’m dealing with two processes at the same time..
#meditation #innerpeace #selfhealing

Day 13 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ again started later than usual, these past two days, I’ve been overly stressed and it’s affecting my state of mind. I feel like I’ve hit a bump, an obstacle that I need to cross. Very rough and sad, but we move on..#meditation

Day 14 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ today I did a late night session, not recommended. Things are calming down again for me, I had a very rough couple of days, let’s hope for the best, will definitely go back to early mornings. #meditation #innerpeace

Day 15 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I had to meditate at night again, and I almost fell asleep. I’ve had reoccurring issues coming up in my head, episode, it’s mostly sad memories. When I’m done I feel this deep sadness. Everything will be fine. #meditation #innerpeace

Day 16 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation ✅ back on my morning routine, much nicer, less sadness today, but I was almost falling asleep the last 20mins, memories, soooo many memories, I was the silent observer. #meditation #innerpeace

Dat 17 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I keep falling back, I woke up this morning from a intense dream, loads of memories. I couldn’t get it out of my head, no matter how still, it was very emotional, very challenging..the whole day..we continue #meditation #bestill

Day 19 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation routine ✅ again my mind takes over, all it takes is one bad message and the entire day including the meditation goes to hell, it was horrible thought patterns, I was just observing, this weekend hopefully I’ll be out in the nature. #meditation

Day 24 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I don’t know but somehow I’m stuck in night time meditation. I don’t know what to expect anymore, maybe that’s the point, I’m still, I embrace the feelings more now, no matter positive or negative. Progress? #meditation #bestill

Day 25 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation routine ✅ it’s so peaceful meditating out in the wild. Since I’m going through some stuff, I tend to have some rough days, today was one of them, memories, feelings, tried to just observe. We move on. #meditation #bestill

Day 26 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ it’s fascinating how all of the sudden, through all the thoughts, memories and emotions, the simple act of being still can bring clarity, even for a few seconds. We move on..#meditation #bestill #selflove

Day 34 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I was 10mins short tonight, I think because I was so tired I was falling asleep. It was a very calm session, was almost floating, I forgot to remove my Apple Watch, at one point it vibrated because my pulse went way low..#meditation

Day 57 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ woke up fresh this morning, chilly, sunny autumn weekend. Had a calm and peaceful session. You really need this, specially with these unusual times, global pandemic.. nothing beats 60mins of nothingness! #meditation #peaceofmind

Day 59 of @naval’s 60/60 meditation journey ✅ I had good sleep. Just finished my session, felt anxious cause of the bright sun and the chilly weather. I just wanted to finish so I could go out for a walk. Fresh cold air when you feel this light is most liberating! #meditation
