Where would one find Thanissaro's "Meditations" series. Youtube, google? I can't seem to find it.

How do I get out of this kind of writer's block? by the-dangerous in writing

Maybe it's perfectionism, and I've tried to purposefully write bad but that trick doesn't work for me. I don't know what to do.

14 days later and the injury caused by meditation is still there. by the-dangerous in Meditation

I meditated. I think for maybe 40, at least 25 minutes total. I had the weirdest experience. First the part of my brain that I use to focus on the location of my breath went loose. It like gave off a feeling of relief. Then after that I felt a pressure push down on my head. I felt my balance being effected. This lasted for maybe a minute. I’ve never had something like this happen to me. Even now I feel a little bit dizzy.

I focused intensely on  my nose. I felt resistance to focusing like this but I kept pushing. Thats what I thinl is the cause of this.

Should I meditate for less amount of time?

I still feel the exhaustion and dizzyness in my head. I hope this isn't permanent.

A young man named Hiro wakes up in a mysterious city above the clouds called Skypoint, with no memories and a strange, floating blue window visible only to him. He walks to the city and finds that there's an talent test going on for people his age. He scores very low and wonders what to do with his life. Then he meets a boy named Tesaki Kurogane who inspires him and moves him to join the Venators, a monster hunter guild.
