“There are a lot of people who will give you good advice, and that can be extremely helpful, but basically you are the only one who knows what’s going on in your practice.”

- Pema Chödrön, American Tibetan Buddhist nun

My Meditation Marathon is a mix of a Diary, Journal, and Planner that helps you to reflect on your spiritual journey and observe your emotional state of being.

My Meditation Marathon Journal provides a physical space free of influence, free of judgment, unbound by the parameters of social media.

Most of us have heard of the benefits of a simple meditation practice such as increasing self-awareness, reducing negative emotions, and building skills to manage your stress.

❗️But…

Sticking to a meditation practice for more than a couple of sessions is extremely difficult.

In our society, we not only want to see our goals being achieved, but most importantly we want them to be achieved quickly. Meditation, on the other hand, is a lifelong journey with ups and downs, with subtle changes that can only be seen by reflecting on your spiritual journey.

It takes time, patience, and most importantly the right motivation behind your practice to see if meditation is really working for you.

🙏 Do not get discouraged, we are here to help you.

My Meditation Marathon is a unique mindfulness journal that includes:

A guide for starting meditation
Detailed instructions of three meditation techniques
Guided meditations and meditations tips
Ways of overcoming obstacles
A gratitude journal

📔 ✍️ Recording your daily experiences before and after meditation can be one of the strongest guiding forces that lead you toward healing and growth on your inner journey.

It serves as a tangible path toward optimal mental, spiritual and emotional health.

This journal is a guide to your true inner self.

My Meditation Marathon helps you to truly recognize your deepest thoughts, difficult emotions, and experiences. You will begin to notice and appreciate even the tiniest things around you by writing them down, observing, understanding, and relating to them more mindfully.

🏃‍♀️To complete a marathon you don’t need to run the whole time. Sometimes you take a break, and that’s ok. You take it easy, go slowly but steadily, and you reach the finish line.

🏁 The finish line is just the beginning. It is a new start to a healthy life ahead. The important thing is that you don’t give up and keep going.

Self-observing is an essential part of the meditation journey. We have to reflect on the inner journey to make the outer journey possible.

My Meditation Marathon helps you discover your true inner self by expressing your experience in words, which take on a real form by writing them down with pen and paper.

1. My Meditation Marathon helps you with the most difficult task of your meditation journey - being consistent.

2. The journal introduces the habit of systematically keeping records of your emotional state of being which can be highly beneficial for your spiritual development.

3. The journal consists of mind exercises that are meticulously designed to help you perceive even the subtlest inner transformations.

4. Unplug from your phone, experience you. With this journal you are not relying on a device to meditate. Less screen time = more time for true inner transformation.

5. It helps you to be your own meditation teacher. Nobody knows you better than yourself.

6. The Three core meditation techniques that are introduced in the journal are selected to help you with different aspects of your life.

Concentration meditation is beneficial for increasing focus, reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and building an appreciation of reality as it is.
Loving-kindness meditation cultivates positive karma by expanding your compassion towards yourself and others.
Meditation on emotions helps you to gain a new perspective on stressful situations, focusing on the present, and increasing patience, tolerance, and acceptance.

7. There are scannable QR codes with guided meditations for each section.

My Meditation Marathon is divided into three chapters that highlight three different meditation techniques:

🙌 Be your own meditation instructor. Nobody knows you better than yourself.

“What makes an action positive or negative? Not how it looks, not whether it is big or small, but it is the positive or negative motivation that is behind it.”

Patrul Rinpoche - Buddhist Yogi

Before every meditation session we encourage you to write your motivation—the intention behind the meditation.

✍️ Preparation: Write your motivation and check your posture.

🧘‍♀️ Meditation: You decide how long you want to meditate. We suggest starting with a short 5-10 minute meditation session and adding an extra minute every session.

📝 Contemplation: Follow the mind exercises and write your responses in the journal.

❗️In case you don’t want to follow the instructions, you are free to do your own mindfulness routine and still reflect on your experience in the meditation journal.

❤️ Before every chapter in the journal there is a gratitude list. This space is reserved for listing things that you’re grateful for throughout the section. It will help your spiritual journey by increasing resilience, happiness, positivity, and fostering hope for the future.

There are 14 sessions for each of the 3 meditation techniques.

Follow the mind exercises for each session according to the particular meditation technique instruction. Each session includes:

Motivation - Before every session write your motivation. Ask yourself the question: "Why do I meditate today?”
Meditation Experience - After meditating, write down your experience: your emotions, feelings, difficulties, achievements, and your mood before and after the session. There is no required information that you have to write. Just follow your heart and record your experience.
Tip - Every meditation session has a unique tip that will help you with obstacles you might encounter during meditation.
Question of the day - Questions are carefully selected for you to better understand yourself and the world around you.
Message for you - A short inspirational message, especially for you.

At the end of every chapter you will encounter a contemplation session. The meditation for this session is the same as the previous 14 sessions, but this time the journaling is different.

Meditation Experience - Read all your meditation experiences from Sessions 1 to 14. Think about what you wrote and reflect upon it. Have there been any changes?
