Okay mine was
Time : 5 min
Location : couch
Observation : I tended to rock back and forth it felt, and a pain in my chest. Once I relaxed even more I felt almost a float sensation and thought I saw a shadow pass behind me. Then my mind came back and I couldn’t calm back down for a bit. This was my second meditation for today.

Awesome! 
Day 2:
Time: 3m timed on phone
Location: home office, curtains drawn, rainsound playing to relax after long-ass rush-hour train journey
Observation: thought about this thread, like my brain wanted to leap from the “focus on breath” state right to the next action/interaction thing it could find, then for a second felt very tired, like sitting upright is too much work, actually went to open my yes but that happened just a faraction of a second before the timer went, so I went with it. 
If anyone’s just seeing this thread on Tuesday, jump right on in if you want, do 7 days from now to create your own quiet confident “I meditate daily” vibe!

Day 0-1
In the late morning and the afternoon.
Where?: In the tram (with a certain lack of sleep, and at the very edge of sleep) on my way to some rural place, to help with gardener stuff/on my way back home.
Weird shit was going through my mind.
I was calm.
The series i just re-discovered by “coincidence”, it is called: “Jormungand”, and the first episode of each season starts with an invokation:
English:
I devour the five lands and drain the three seas, yet only the sky is impossible to reach. With this body lacking wings, hands, or legs. I am the World Serpent. My name is Jormungand.
German:
„Einst verschlang ich fünf Kontinente. Mein Durst schluckte drei Weltmeere leer. Allein der Himmel vermag es sich meiner Herrschaft zu entziehen. Wisset, mein Leib nennt nicht Flügel, noch Arm, noch Bein sein eigen. Ich bin die Midgardschlange. Ich trage den Namen Jormundgand.“
This came into my mind.
~Jormundgand could be an aspect of kundalini, or leviathan.
I bid that those two will play importend roles for me.
I felt something as i spoke that invokation.
~The both forces mentioned? Probably, but just a glimpse.
I remained calm, i didn’t had addtional strength, but it seems that it would have been worse without the “”““meditation””“”, i say that because my eyes -their brightness, is an indicator for my health and lifeforce.
Back to the series: the series is about a weapons dealer and her bodyguards,mercenaries, war, and funny and emotional stuff.
It fits very well into this “motivation is a false god, dedication is manhood” -thing, and the fact that my last option of all would be, to go to the military -with a someone, (so i wouldn’t be the only one in that mess) make the whole thing more promising. Fuck, i want and need guns in my life. ^^
I don’t know. -I actually don’t wanna try to meditate in a calm enviroment,
because that could/would leave me with expactations and shit

I’m in and this might be just what I needed! I am constantly hating on myself because I “should meditate” but I have such a hard time I put it off. I am too tired. It is too late. I’ll do it tomorrow. When I do I fear I am not “doing” it right and I even wonder if I am actually doing it at all! Is this what I am supposed to be doing? Am I in the sync? So I meditate one day and skip three. I don’t know what I am supposed to focus on when I do it! Anyone else have this problem? My breath? The 3rd eye? Raising kundilini energy? Focus on one chakra? How about the astral temple? Or connecting with the earth and the grid and the moon? Or should I focus on a sigil and speak to someone? …so many meditations so little time… So last night I did it.
Sitting in bed kinda in a lotus position with hands on my knees. I had put on oil for healing past hurts. I want to do shadow work and yeah… Anyway I focused on my heart area. Not the heart itself but kind of in front of the body the energetic heart center area and emptied my mind. (hahahaha a monumentous task I assure you) It took me a good 15 minutes of “meditating” to figure out what I was going to do during the meditation. In the end I called Lucifer and we meditated together…for lack of a better way to word it. Don’t pick on me because I am not as smart and verbal as you!!! lol!
When I called Him and I finally calmed my mind down, I found that I had images flash in my head. Faces and astral beings. Weird stuff sometimes… So I blanked my mind and waited to see what surfaced. In the end I stopped meditating after about 40 minutes when I had this realization that I do not want to remember the bad… It scared me and I snapped out of the meditation. It shook me up inside for real… I don’t know but maybe something was getting close to the surface and I ran from it. I am going to try again tonight and see what happens. Anyway when I refocused on this plane and you know, came back to here I felt surprised at my reaction and shook up but my whole body was tingling.
Hope this wasn’t too long.
Happy meditating!

That’s SO cool!
It’s this fear of “am I doing it right?” that gets in the way a lot, just do it, focus on breath or some image, or a seed mantra, oron SO and HUM while breathing, and there’s no need to push it into unsustainable long periods, I like doing 20m myself because that’s long enough for a reset at the end of the day but just doing 3 or 5 is worthwhile if that’s what feels sustainable EVERY day, later you can find your own best time period.

I have to do it when I have quiet. I can’t do it with an audience. So when my daughter goes to bed then maybe I can do it. But she stays up late. and I ALWAYS wonder if I am doing it wrong or maybe I should be doing this or that…I always feel like I should be DOING something. . But this, and your encouragement should help me a lot. Thank you!

No jusr do it ?
My take on it is that if you can do 7 days straight of JUST focusing on your breathing, and maybe thinking SO as you breathe in, HUM as you breathe out, getting distracted and just bringing your awareness back without self-recrimination (because it happens to EVERYONE, the point of meditation, arguably, IS to have distractions and learn to not go with them), you ARE basically doing it, and it’s not a sport so you don’t need to rank yourself against other players! 
You can make things more elaborate, start “meditation without seed” or start bumping up the time you spend, but 3 or 5 minutes TOPS a day that you do every day for a week has broken the illusion of “this isn’t for me, am I doing it right” and so on.
This time next week everyone who wants to be, and who has THREE MINUTES A DAY can become someone who now meditates daily. EVERYONE. Even if you can’t sit up straight, lie down with your spine as straight as it can be, and do your 3 minutes.
@dagar I don’t understand the question, sorry - what do you mean?

Day 1
Time: Meditated for about 21 minutes
Place: my room
So I got into an asana and I played some Native American drum beats to help move the process along.
I noticed that at first my mind wandered about quite a bit, it was hard to see the mental images or focus on anything.
Going further in I found it was better to just get lost in my train of thought, I followed it through till the end. It was then easier to bring the focus on my breathing and I tried to put this into the same rhythm with the drum beats and that worked well until it became a subconscious action I could carry out without much thought.
I did some stretches and clenched and unclenched my muscles to promote physical relaxation and I found myself feeling more and more relaxed.
Mental images were becoming more vivid and it was easier for me to visualize clearly. I didn’t visualize anything though as I just wanted this to be a sort of free for all whatever comes type of thing.
I did notice that It was easier brainstorming solutions to problems in this state of mind. I easily found a solution to an aspect of a spell that I had been working on and it came clairvoyantly so I can’t wait to try that.
Nearing the end of my meditation I found that I was aware of a vibration of some sorts, it was really weird it felt like I was suddenly aware of my this subtle hum all around my body. I could feel the vibrations and the more I focused on them the more amplified they became.
I then ended the meditation because i felt it was time to do so.
All in all I feel like patience plays a really vital role in meditation. Go easy on yourself and don’t expect everything to happen at once, sometimes we all need to just meditate for the sake of meditating.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow

Day 4
Time: 3 min
Location: Same as last time in the same environment
Observation: Felt slightly more relaxed and easier than yesterday. The only thing going through my head was sleep and necromancy (probably because I was looking at that stuff before I did this today).

Day 3 (yesterday, forgot to log):
Time: 5m timed on phone
Location: busy train, took an extra 2m to compensate for any distractions
Observation: a lot of genuine external distractions actually reduced internal chatter, because they’re more pressing but also, easier to tune out.
Day 4 (today):
Time: 3m timed on phone
Observation: nothing much, felt the benefit of some coffee I had which seemed like dark fire racing through my mind, thought of food a few times, nothing pressing that I was unable to acknowledge and then move away from, back to focusing on breathing.
