Personal Exercise Analysis

The personal experiment I tested out this week was the meditating for five minutes. We did this in class on thursday and we just sat there for five minutes trying to not think about anything.

Also, when I’m stress sometimes I freak out and go crazy, think about deep things and try to calm myself down; Back away from whatever I’m doing and take a couple minutes for myself. For some people they do this everyday or this is their job. I would say meditating works if you do it right and you’re a patient person because some people are so impatient and want the results right there and then, but it doesn’t work that way; it's a lengthy process. The results I got back from this experiment were breathtaking, all this meditating worked for me. All you need to do is take a couple of minutes out of your busy day and just sit somewhere comfortable for five minutes and clear your mind. Let the meditating work it’s magic. I liked doing this so much that I’m going to continue this process in my everyday
