IV. Describe the experience– What type of meditation did you choose? Describe what was going on in your mind and your body, what kind of thoughts and sensations did you experience during the meditation? Were there any challenging or frustrating aspects of the experience, and if so, what were they? Would you try this again in the future? Why or why not?

The type of meditation i chose was Guided Meditation: Confidence and the Breath. In my mind i was thinking about all the things that was stressing me. I was feeling a little bit drowsy. It was frustrating on focusing strictly on my breathing. I would definitely try this again in the future because it was very relaxing.
