What happened while I was meditating was similar to what you say here.

I was listening to Jon Kabat-Zinn do a guided meditation. I was sitting up right in my computer chair.

I am certain it is not due to early trauma. Trauma has already been explored by two long time therapists (1st one worked with me for 8 years, the current one has worked with me for 7 years.)

For now, I am going to convince myself that it was a dream.

Often I tell myself when I go to bed at night that I do not wish to remember the dreams in the morning. That works. I have no memory of most dreams. I know nothing of my dreams.


One of the points of meditation is to be open but not too open. That is what I thought. ?? ?
In a few days I will try to meditate again doing something different.
