You are just supposed to observe yourself. And if you observe yourself and are thinking about it, you observe yourself thinking about observing yourself. And then if you start thinking about THAT...... you observe yourself thinking about observing yourself thinking about observing yourself.

And on and on it goes.

Needless to say I felt like I was on drugs whenever I did mindfulness and it did not help me at all, lol. But I have read a lottttt of stuff about people who have said it changed their life. So there you go. Lots of different results for everyone - everyone is different.
