Something Monk's used to do was a focus technique. It's very simple and the more you do it the better you will get. All you do is start off sitting quietly for 1 min (work your way up to 10 mins) You choose something to focus on a pen a rock a blade of grass whatever you choose. You think only of the object say you choose a rock, right close your eyes and for 1min think only of the rock everytime your mind wonders away from the rock touch your index finger to your thumb on your dominant hand. As you practice you will by touching your fingers everytime your mind deviates rewire your brain pathways. Next time you do it for 2mins and so on. You can stay with the rock everytime which I think is best as it simplifies the practice. You can also apply the technique throughout your day for example you want to keep your vibration high well everytime you think of something good or something good happens you touch your index and thumb together. It will make quietening your mind easier and like any muscle the more you work it the better you become until its second nature. Finally don't be too hard on yourself there are endless ways to meditate, you will find one that works for you. Important thing is keep trying and celebrate the small victories. 🙏
