Agreed and some people think youtube gurus messes you up. I'd say listen to anyone who you trust and I trust Leo, I've found what Leo's speaks is in books and lectures, he's legit.

[@CaptainCortisol]

Months ago I watched your video on meditating, I still can't believe I do it everyday now. It has started some spiritual journey within myself that is both painfully difficult and beautiful at the same time. This stuff is gold.

[@DavidMillerVideos]

How's the spiritual journey going?

[@TruthEnthusiast1]

Can you explain what you went through:)

[@vrstovsek]

Leo, this is gold! You put so much effort and work to make quality videos and how you structure them is amazing as well. They have really helped me a lot during last few months, so i just wanted to say one big THANK YOU.

[@andrescollinucci2179]

This guy is amazing. What an impressive combination of deep insight and practical advice. He makes so much sense about everything it's almost scary

[@Godskingdomwithin]

My spiritual teacher, and a very advanced one, explains that our "Soul," is our true, essential self, and in meditation the soul is the observer, and that the mind is the part of us that does all the talking in our heads! By observing, as you said, we can learn to differentiate between the two. The problem for most people is that they think they are that part of them that does all the talking in their heads! When someone becomes aware, and they learn how to separate the two, they will begin to experience, or they can begin to choose that part of them that is a spark of the eternal God. Who we really are is that observer. The thinking part of us operates in time and space, and our true selves, our soul, was, is, and always will be, and exists outside time and space!

[@danalyze]

Godskingdomwithin Then who is perceiving the soul?

[@Godskingdomwithin]

The "soul," is perception. In this world, on this level of experience, each soul seems to be separate while in a human being, but on the highest level of consciousness in our true home, which most call God, all souls are one. In other words, the soul within us is divine. It never knows death, or birth. Through meditation we can awaken that part of us. If that is what we seek. There are other forms of meditation that help some people relax, or think more clearly. Higher meditation is for the purpose of reuniting with the source-God--which is within us all.

[@luisman369]

+Godskingdomwithin It reminds me a little of something that Gustav Jung said. Wonderful comment, regards!

[@silvermusings0903]

Your spiritual teacher is spot on! Try reading Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now" on this very subject. If you are ready for this, you won't need convincing.

[@TripleNippleNick]

soul is the same as god, both are concepts. soul is a concept for those who can't get that ego is a delusion. both lead to same place

I wonder, with such a comment, are you still meditating like your life depends on it, or did you have previously have more discipline?

[@kimberlyj4538]

Your next level meditation absolutely began my journey of awareness and BOIN, I began transcendental meditation at 18. I’m 65. Your letting go simply made the difference, it’s so much more effective. I no longer “struggle” while meditating. I do your steps of focus on body and then push out into reality. You are reality. I find by doing that, I can more easily rest my thoughts. Get out of my skull. I now look fwd to meditating daily now.

[@PhillDrakeEntertainment]

Brain needs to be trained just like muscles to become healthy and prevent mental disorders.

[@yungcuba7163]

Phill Drake definitely agree! 💯💪🏼🔥

[@DriscolDevil]

Just like excercise, it can also make mental issues worse. Not saying I disagree with your actual point, but it is hardly that simple. Training your mind is helpful but it alone doesn't keep your mind in good health. Focusing on spirituality and deep meditation while covering up trauma can be like doing intense excercise while ignoring a broken bone. You are not helping it heal, you could make it worse.

[@chingguskhan8774]

@@DriscolDevil you're absolutely right! I did this for years and it evolved my manic depression into schizo-affective disorder. People need to be careful and be properly trained

[@reggaemow]

Johanan Boynes Maybe thats just your ego clinging to the positive feelings and thoughts. Try not to control them, just watch and observe without judgement or thinking. Be the awareness where these positive thoughts/feelings arises (just as the negative thoughts/feelings). Accept what is, let go of resistance.

[@reggaemow]

Johanan Boynes Well yeah, something like that.. resistance only build up to the sense of suffering. If you identify yourself with a thought or a feeling it becomes "you". So if you identify yourself with a negative thought and start to resist it, you will feel suffer. Observing and accepting what is, as it is, will free you from identification with that particular thought, sensation or feeling and you will stop resisting it and by that stop feeling suffer from it. And as you noticed it is easier and sure more joyful to identify with a positive thought or feeling, but still, its not the "true you". As in your case, you are identified with this positive sensation, just as you are when you're feeling sad. But this time its harder to detach yourself to be the observer of the feeling. Observe and accept whatever arises in your field of awareness, without judgement or resistance.

[@reggaemow]

Johanan Boynes Yes, it is a lot of work. Its impossibly to try and understand this in a logical/intellectual/rational way, you have to experience it for yourself. I have probably done a few hundred hours of meditation just to get a slight sensation of what that experience could be, but its really worth it! Yeah, I can relate to what you are saying. Even if it somehow seems easier for me to become the observer when a negative thought, emotion or sensation occurs, and in time stop myself from identify with it or at least be conscious enough to recognise that this feeling or thought isn't the real "me", its still very hard for me to do that in a real ordinary-life-situation. And when a happy feeling arises I'm totally consumed by that thought or emotion, not even trying to become the observer (ofc sometimes I do try it too). At this point I'm fully identified, or my ego is, with the content that arises within my field of awareness. And I'm working towards an identification to the "real me".. whatever that might be.. and it can only be gained through experience.. a lot of work, yes, but worth it I think.

What is so awesome about Leo is that he not only puts the techniques in down to earth terms we can all understand, he also interprets what the mind is saying in it's reaction to the efforts the meditater is making during the meditation itself.

This is basically what I have started doing lately after 16 years of meditation but I always wondered if what I have switched to is right or productive. Thank you for confirming that this is a natural way to progress and for describing the exact same pitfalls and thought processes I’ve battled.

[@MarliekeMarlieke]

I am so happy that I found your channel! All your videos I watched so far are really helpful and informative. Very clear explanation. Thank you!

[@MrJherime]

This is the best video experience I have ever had. Each moment in life, every thought "bubble"that arises is just content, everything we see, think, ect. While meditating or not, my mind just got blown. There is no reason to get caught up on any of it. First level of enlightenment? gg well played life, we'll played.. :-)

[@alexpost444]

will come back a later time when i get better at meditating. Its always good to come back to meditating videos after you have gotten better.

[@bashendrickx]

Glad I checked your channel right before I started my daily meditation. I meditated right after watching your video and man... best meditation in weeks. I fell for so many of the pitfalls you named and I was so much more conscious of them now. Thank you Leo! Something different... buying your booklist was one of the best decisions I made in my life (so far ;p).

[@gabrielra5302]

Must say, I started with one of your new b vids about 2 years ago, my life is freakin awesome! Soo much has happened, truly amazing events/ moments/ changes/ miracles I can go on&on!! Once my guardian angel told me his name in one of my 1st meditations, it's been on! Im back now looking to learn other techniques. I subd soo I won't miss what's new, plus now im gonna search thru the other vids. Thanks again, very very helpful! Peace

[@happyhappener9766]

Leo, This video was very helpful. Since your video on How To Become Enlightened, I've been meditating for approximately 30 minutes upon waking every morning. I do use the alarm on my smart phone but keep it on airplane mode. I'm planning on a full Saturday where I can do the meditation marathon at some point. I find a lot of negative emotions come up more times than not. Then I get frustrated at that and round and round I go. I take my thoughts wayyy too seriously. Geez. The active detachment part you talk about helped me realize what is going on. To put a name to it. The emotions, the thoughts.....they're all just thoughts, content. It's like writing words on a dry erase board, erasing that and writing some more. The content changes but the board always stays the same. Awareness stays the same. Some content I get attached to and run away with and make up stories until I realize I lost my center. Then I come back. Sometimes I have an itch and think "oh that's just an itch" and it fades away. Other times my mind is like "that really itches, I must scratch!" Then I'm scratching my leg. It seems like schizophrenia what is going on in my mind! Something I am curious about is the people that talk about hearing a voice, the voice of God. I've never heard any such thing. Is there a voice of God? Voice of something greater than us that we can hear other than our thoughts or would it just be thoughts too? I'm not even talking about religion, though I've met Christians who claim Jesus speaks to them. I've also heard other spiritual types mention some voice speaking to them. All I hear are things like "How much time is left? My belly hurts. What did she mean by that? What will I make for breakfast? Man, I hate driving in morning rush hour"....and on and on and on.. If that's "God" talking to me, "he" must really be bored.

[@peterparker6118]

Yeah i feel you same here yet sometimes attend to the brain content more than awareness but I guess that's practice or training of it bringing it back lol

[@cholponkerimbaeva9211]

Hi Leo, Thank you for sharing with your inspiring videos. In the book The monk who sold Ferrari, he says "When the student is ready the teacher appears", that`s what I felt when I started watching your videos. Just wanted to tell you, try to meditate while swimming and during the sunset. It`s magical, I close my eyes while swimming in a frog style without too much effort, just relax and then I feel weightless and my mind is just in peace. I feel like a flying bird and when I open my eyes look at the red sunset I feel that I am a part of the universe. It`s incredible. Wish you a peace of mind and success in everything what you are doing. Cholpon

[@annametalowa4964]

Leo, something that might come in handy for you: When you talk about day-dreaming, it's not really a pitfall. Buddhists say "sleep is unconscious meditation, meditation is conscious sleep". So, if you stay awake (=your consciousness stays lucid), or in other words aware of your thoughts, there's no problem, really. This is known as lucid dreaming meditation and it can be either dream induced (DILD) or wake induced (WILD). Another name for this kind of meditation is astral projection. In medicine there is a phenomenon called out of body experience, and you can probably see the connection now:)

[@ludacris6600]

I feel like awareness is the ability to detach of yourself, but still being the center of your focus.

[@zandersmith6957]

Thank you sir , your methods have helped me through tough times, especially through my mothers battle with breast cancer, what you do is important..

[@nethandelwampa116]

[@TheLingrush]

Thank you Leo, I just finished week three and I actually find myself wanting to meditate. I have hit all the pit falls and feel really good about it. I prefer morning right when I wake up, even before coffee. It just seems to fit. These tips will help out greatly. I have been going for 20 minutes, but I have moved to about 25 and I actually did 45 one morning. Weekends are hard because I like the silence and well I have two very young kids. I feel I have experienced some interesting moments and this training is going to really help. Thanks again, for taking the time for this. Don't let the name fool you!! : )

[@drmehjabinhirani8528]

Very nice and useful video. Thank you for elaborating and simplifying the whole process of meditation so that one doesn't feel lost while meditating 💐

[@vwwilson9299]

good practical explanation and advice highlighting those traps, yes thought is just thought weather you think its good or bad, just keep the flow going when you attach to a thought you stop the flow and your breath also changes, when your mind wonders away with your thought you become accustomed to that pattern after awhile and you don't get frustrated with trying to stop it happening and by realizing and accepting that your able to keep the flow going instead of stop and go stop and go

Thank you for this introduction, it as opened my knowledge about meditation, I have been doing it for a long time i will drop of an start again, because I felt I was going nowhere, finally in the last two years I have made up my mind not to stop but to continue although I didn't know if it was right or wrong I kept asking questions to myself if I am doing it right, it's by sheer luck I bumped into your video today, i am so glad I have learnt from you, exactly that's is okay what goes in our mind, I have read an saw videos, it didn't make sence to me at all, the question I wanted to know you have given clear knowledge about meditation, I am grateful an will fellow you, thank you keep up your good work, now I have a peace of mind, may god bless u for the knowledge u sent out, 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️

[@helanguyen2631]

Let's set aside content of your videos. Whenever I start playing and listening. Suddenly have a kind of positive & peaceful feelings. Especially when u said: "Don't worry.", feel like everything is just a fur. Thanks for that, Leo!

[@UKYak]

Superb as always Leo. I've only been following your lessons for a couple of weeks and have only just got my head around meditating on a regular basis, so at this time I feel I will add this video to my watch later list as I am at stage one and need to get that down before moving on to stage two or further. Thanks for all your work.

[@Thomas-ip3tg]

Hi Leo! Thanks for the content! you are providing a lot of value that have massive impact :) Quick question: do you recommend guided meditation or do you recommend meditation in silence? What do you prefer yourself? Thank you in advance :)

[@veganfire4218]

Awesome stuff, Leo. This video helped me not really to meditate deeper but to meditate... I'd say correctly. Hear me out, guys. For months I've been meditating somewhere at stage 3, or trying to. I was feeling like not doing it correctly or being too slow, or if not, too restless to enjoy the process. Little did I know that some of the other "kinds" of meditation are actually other stages of it. Of course I couldn't focus my awareness on my body because I had no inkling of what awareness was. Now starting at level 1 - where I currently am, I mean, I've only been meditating daily for half a year - it's so much more enjoyable and natural. Now I can ACTUALLY lean into the "expectation-less" realm that everybody's talking about, that I didn't quite understand. And bit by bit, I'll move up and try more and more stage 2. AWESOME! You're boss, Leo. EDIT: If anyone reads twice on the phrase "only half a year", don't be shocked. Depending on whether you find the right approach to it, you would probably get good at meditation way sooner than me. However, remember what Leo also says: You need to do it daily, and you'll get the big effect out of it in months and years, not days and weeks. On that note, you might as well take longer, but at some point you'll get the hang of it.

[@constantinstaneala]

Thanks Leo, very useful tips and this completely free.👍 I know many others who charge pretty well for this kind of information!

[@Maxvirtual]

Leo, great video man, super constructive. One thing: a smartphone works well as a timer when set to 'do not disturb' + an alarm. Put it under one leg on vibrate mode, and you're good to go - all other notifications except the alarm will be blocked. Set it up quickly by telling Siri or Iris: 'Do not disturb', followed by ' Wake me up in 30 minutes'. It's also ideal under the pillow for sleeping with earplugs :).

[@Blahlalovely]

This is so great! I've had all these thoughts during meditation. This has motivated me to do 20 minutes a day, every day. Thank you.

[@nobrainnogain2136]

Big Leo, thanks again for another great video! Just a question before: I was meditating for 20 minutes every single day since the 1th of January of 2015 and I was getting amazing results from it. However last Monday I decided to start meditating for 30 minutes after I went through a breakup with my girl, as a form to be happier by myself. But actually what I found through this whole week was that I was getting a state of really calm and not getting excited about some stuffs that I really liked, like parting, drinking, socializing, exploring the field and so on. Then I started to put so much value in the relationship that I just went through a breakup, which was kind of frustrating. Therefore I saw that meditation was actually making my mind more mature and I decided to do something different, like increasing the time of meditation with the years. For example, right now I´m 21 and I´m thinking about to do 21 minutes section of meditation every single day. Increasing its time year by year until I get 30 years and keep it for the rest of life. I feel that I just wanna keep enjoying those kind of stuffs while I´m young and I don´t wanna get less excited about those things untill I get older and these stuffs are probably going to that place anyway. And at the same time I wanna get in that state of mind that I tasted for a week, which I was just performing a bit better in life, unhooking from addictions and getting better results at my week time. What do you think about it, man?? Thank you so much and sorry about some english mistakes, I´m Brazilian BTW. Mostrar menos

[@-report1070]

i would like to know your progress now

[@ilikepizza123100]

I really don't see a large difference between stage one and two. Whenever I observe my thoughts objectively, it seems that they go away. The way that I release thoughts is by not judging them, and not getting carried away with them. Perhaps this just means I have never actively release something before, or perhaps I am in a constant state of active release when I meditate (except for times when I do get carried away). Could you, Leo, or anyone else clarify this for me? thanks

[@ilikepizza123100]

Also I just watched stage three and it seems to be the same as well.

[@yeobo]

This is what i’ve been dealing with, when i become aware of it or “watch my mind” It just disappears...and i’m just left there like okay, and it will go to another thought and maybe 3 seconds into the thought i’ll be like “okay, it’s here now” i won’t judge it, but it will go away. so ...idk, how to be aware of the transition of the the thought maybe?

[@rimatabrah9418]

This video made my day Im On my way to meditate daily Thank you Leo

[@iloveyoutothemoonandback]

When we are functioning normally in life, we focused on doing something, some other thoughts will pop out involuntary. But the thing is when we meditate (in the beginner level) all we do is focus on what is going on in our brains, therefore its hard to not "controll" what to think and how to think. So I'm confused at this part when meditating. but as always, good video Leo! thanks a million

[@chan-sy2oy]

I wish I would've seen this video a year ago when I tried to meditate for the first time and gave up after 2 inconsistent months. I am glad I decided to give meditation a second chance.

[@pilgrim2510]

Great video, thanks a lot. One thing to point out though. I'm not sure if it's wise to divide so strictly the meditation time and the 'other' time. Part of the meditation practice is to bring the mindset you have in the meditation session into everyday life. To bring the flow and non-stickiness of mind into your everyday conduct.

[@danalyze]

It's like you're reading my mind. I have been thinking about how to deepen my meditation... but still, I have yet to watch the video :D

[@shannonbruce9183]

just want to add that the emotions that come up can also be a good indicator of things we need to heal or release, not always but just wanted to put that out there

I have already lot of experience in meditation but I needed a last little thing to grow to the next stage and your vid did that !! Now I live my life totally from the awareness watching my toughts and it is INCREDIBLE how I'm getting more and more happy !! The things that were shit for me to do are now ok and the things that are good are even better ! From now when I smoke marijuana it's not the same at all it's kind of amazing and I had the information from I think my awareness that the next step for me is psychedelic ego death experience with 2-cb which is my growing tool.

[@Lorden54321]

Hi, guys. I've been so lucky to be given the most profound awakening out of my extremely rational mind. It took a loop, so to speak, as my meta thoughts made it impossible that this was it. I gave up everything and there it came. Now I can only see the reason to live, to self actualize by reaching the higher states of consciousness. I am starting at the first stage to observe my mind and let it wander. Is it recommended that I watch all the meditation videos in this playlist, or shall I do this after my 3 months? I am asking this question in advance due to more occurrence of thoughts and distraction. Thank you for your kindness

[@ayyubazid758]

Is it ok not to use a timer? I meditate a lot better without a timer as a timer reminds me of the amount of time I have been meditating thus making it more difficult to meditate. Without a timer I can meditate with some ease for 45+ mins.

[@thetradefloor]

decent video Leo, however I didn't get a lot of value- some of your advice comes from a negative frame and I've already surpassed most of the tips. I learned meditation using RSD Tyler's method which is simply to stare forward at a wall, just being present and letting thoughts roll by like leaves in the wind. I'm on my 10th month of 20mins a day and the impact on my clarity and emotions has been immense. I can barely relate to some people that used to be very close to me cause of their negativity/lack of patience and I'm a lot more centred now. However, my one problem atm is sometimes getting impatient and looking at my phone to see how much time I have left. I highly recommend meditation to anyone who wants to improve their life situation :)

[@shannonbruce9183]

I can relate and I love RDS

[@HellGod67]

very useful videos thanks for posting. do you think that there is a difference between meditating and relaxing each muscle and is part of the body one by one. if we are relaxing part of the body then relax this part followed by relax another other part is also a thought

Your video is very clear like always :D. the only comment i have is the fact u divide the different kinds of meditation in stages , like newbie to advanced. This is just a matter of subjective opinion. Like the newbie stage you discribe is shikantaza in zen practice and isnt considered newbie at all. There are not really advanced and beginner meditations. It is about discovering your true nature and the specific meditation that will lead u there is very different for differerent people.Just my humble opinion :D. Very good insights on the pitfalls, thanks for the vid and hope to see more of them. Greetz tris

I'm exited about your upcoming course :) What will be the price for it?

[@TheRealHerbaSchmurba]

You have to let your thoughts flow like water. Often a thought comes that disrupts the flow making us want to fight back causing tension within ourselves. We must acknowledge it as a thought that is only secondary to our well being and let it flow away

Hey, amazing content man! I started this 90 day challenge and am on the 15th day. Just wondering is there any subtle difference between these two types of meditation - simple observation and doing nothing? Or is it the exact same method?

[@IlluminatedLIfe]

Very zen, thanks for sharing.

[@johnblack6571]

I am so glad that I have not listened how to meditate first time from you mate...

[@Whisprify]

Thank you for reminding me.

Yes, I think you are right; but let me explain it better: Sometimes there is some music running in my mind (usually that popular music with an repetitive patern, or maybe that one that have emocional content to me.) In the first level, it is easy to just let the music goes and observe it, but in the second level, I feel dificulty to make it go away. And I said it seems to be an background, becouse I can observe images and Ideas, even sounds while the music continues to run... Like it was totally independent of other thoths... In my latest experiments, however, In the level 3, I feel easyer to make it go, by just foccusing on the silence behind the sound... You think I am in the right direction? Maybe I should try to do the levels 1,2 and 3 in the order and time that you said, to observe better... that is the first time that I see this order... To me before, it was just isolate diferent técnics... PS: sorry for the "indian english" I AM still learning...

What did I say in the instructions for stage 2? If you fail to drop it, don't worry about it.

I've been meditating for a year now. I currently meditate for 30 minutes each day. I needed to relearn the basics of it.

I've been advanced for a while, without meditating. I use to meditate when I was younger, but I know why I'm advanced at my age, I do recommend people reading the book called "meditations by Marcus a"
