I dont like the feeling of rocking. I think it's to let u be in control. But I felt off balance and unsettled. It was not a positive experience. So I guess my question is... Will this go away? Or could it be that mindfulness isn't for me?
It could be that this technique in mindfulness isn't comfortable for you. I would share that with your T. In general to close your eyes and sway would be difficult even when not doing mindfulness!
