Mindfulness for me is still a work in practice. I can do it during some activities but not others, but I am confident that I will get better at it. For me I just try to really stay in the moment. My mind can wander but I redirect it to my activity. Its an unfamiliar feeling to me to be mindful so it is taking some getting used to. Apparently there are some great mindfulness aps out there but I dont have a smart phone so cannot recommend one.

Holosync meditation really helped me with meditation. I am struggling a little at the moment but again I am confident that it will come good. I also found guided mindfulness meditation good. Progressive muscle relaxation also worked better for me than other techniques. There is a huge range of meditation techniques and tools out there, its a matter of finding what works for you. It will take weeks or months at least so dont expect a quick fix.

I have been slack with my yoga lately, but many unmedicated people in my group find it really beneficial. There are some really basic yoga routines available online to give you a feel for it.

I hope you keep us updated on your journey. I hope to be in the position to come off meds one day.
Thanks for this!
