Today I was meditating at the beach. I went into the water and tried to still my mind. If found some good stillness but unfortunately there were many people around and the water was not so calm, but it worked as a good challenge. I often find myself becomming too philosophical during or after the meditations which I don't always like. Today I was thinking about confronting fears.

Was having a couple of difficult days in terms of feeling a bit depressed for no apparent reason. I found that being more honest with myself of my what im feeling as opposed to hiding my emotions helps a lot. It feels like a release. Today I was able to not be so overwhelmed by thoughts of inner problems but was able to remain present and clear.

Today I joined a special ops of a friend of mine. There were 9 of us and we meditated on the grass outside. It nearly rained but luckily the weather held out. It was a really nice experience, although the ground was very hard and I had to fight the pain. I think the others enjoyed it a lot! I felt really good for the rest of the day.

I found myself very tired because we were doing a lot of workshops but the meditation helped me to relax a bit and to feel less tense through the intensity of the day.
