Feeling kind of pissed that I worked slowly today.

I do it every day.
I sit quietly for one hour and focus on remembering what is (phenomenologically) real.
This involves attention to the flow of sensations (including the sensations of ‘time’ and ‘thought’ and everything else in there/here).
Don’t know if that makes sense. It will make more sense if you just sit and try it for 1 minute. Or if you’ve already done it.
To some extent, I also drop and release excess tension.
Mind is a bunch of actual processes. You can literally sit and observe them working. Or walk and observe them walking. Or stand and observe them working. Or…
and so on.
if not clear, tell me, and I’ll try again.

I’ve had a few responses in the last day or so that seem like recon.
Heightened emotionality/nostalgia.
Irritability
stressed, intolerant feelings
immune response
Each one of them had possible situational causes/explanations. But as all of them occurred together, I got that ‘hmmm…’ feeling.
‘This seems suspiciously like Recon, doesn’t it?’
“But I’ve been playing this identical stack twice a week since 1 October.”
“Wait a minute. This is the first time you’ve played the upgraded to ZPv2 versions. Maybe it’s hitting more purely.”
??!
"Whoa…"

If this is recon, then:
- I’ll take that as encouraging sign. I usually don’t feel much of anything.
- I’ll step up my exercise as soon as I’m able. I have been walking as always, but in the last 2 or 3 weeks, it has been primarily indoors. And I know that is an inferior option. Less breathing. Less exertion. And fewer intuitive insight hits.
Today is supposed to be my next subliminal day, but I think I’ll hold off until tomorrow and see how things feel.
There’s a 10 AM meeting today that’s a little bit stressful. Seems like it might be a good day to keep things calm.

Kind of in a strange space. I think it’s good to write about it/write through it, since it can leave a kind of record for myself or others who may read this.
I survived my morning meeting. It was run by me, but was more of an administrative meeting. I was aware that I was not as prepared as I wanted to be. But it basically did what it needed to do.
[Another astrology key:
My Saturn is placed in Gemini. And one expression of that is being quite reticent. Holding back communication. I’ve worked on that for a long time. And now I’m getting more chances to work on it.]
Some of the responsibilities that have landed in my life now are very dependent on my being able to communicate enough and at the right times.
I have the feeling that I am being supported and guided through this. It’s somewhat uncanny. And boy am I grateful for it.
Well, this is going to be interesting. 2023 is already feeling like a very different energy from 2022. It looks like I’m going to need to pay attention and to walk carefully, but that, at the same time, doing so will enable many more opportunities to unfold and enter my life.
And throughout all of that my spiritual big brothers/sisters have my back and are helping me through it.

If you’re feeling a bit existentially disoriented on DR, I think that is “normal”. 
If you’re experiencing distortions in space and time on DR, that might be “normal” too.

It’s still early, but…
ZP v2 is seeming significantly more effective for me.
Just now, I noticed myself feeling things that seemed suspiciously like Carpe Diem Ascended. I have A LOT of freaking work to do right now. And I just got one tangle sorted and felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

a few posts back I wrote this:
I think it probably created the impression that I’m still running Dragon Reborn now. I’m not.
I was just comparing what I’m feeling now with my current stack to what I had been feeling back last year when I was running Dragon Reborn.
That’s why I found the experience interesting. I was experiencing a disorientation that seemed more appropriate to the healing and processing of Dragon Reborn.
Interestingly, this seems to, instead, have resulted from upgrading my stack to the ZP v2 build.
I got disorientation, even have had a little immune thing, got quite irritable,
AND…
I’m also getting a stream of clear results and manifestations.
This is new for me.
Makes me look forward to ZP v3.
These various Build Refinements seem to be making real differences for me.

Here’s another description:
Forget about anything supposedly spiritual,
Just experientially investigate your nervous system and neural process.
“How do the parts of my nervous system work?”
“What is my nervous system (neuroendocrine system) doing right now?”
“How does that relate to or inform Reality (my sense of what is real)? Right now? In general?”
Ask these questions with your body and you will be meditating.

Seems that much of what I was experiencing earlier this week was more about external events than about the subliminal. Played it again last night, nothing recon-like so far. But I’m still getting what feel like Carpe Diem hits. Markedly more work motivation. It’s very interesting.
My previous manifestation has repeated itself. The contract that was for December 2022 is now also for February 2023 and April 2023.
Looks like a bonafide additional stream of income established itself.

This is pretty interesting.
My job and work are picking up (in intensity and busyness), and at the same time I’m also feeling more engaged.

Subliminal play day today.
Woke up for an earlier morning meditation with subliminals.
5:59 am to 6:59 am
Now it’s7:27 and I’m still lounging here in bed, sliding my finger across the surface of this phone as I write posts.
Okay, time to get up.

There are some things in life that just cannot be given to you.
You have to grow into them and take them for yourself.
Self-Determination is one of them.

Through meditation (ironically).
These various descriptions that I’m offering to @Yazooneh ‘s original question are not actually satisfying me.
They’re more ‘pointers’ than actual instructions or accurate descriptions.
And there are so many possible others.
Meditation for me is about a particular orientation or relationship to “Experience” or “Being”. Yet, the actual relationship is shifting and dynamic; so meditation is equally about seeking out or exploring that relationship.
But then sounds too intellectualized; and that’s not quite accurate.
You can give simple instructions about Attention, breathing, and so on. But those too seem more like a launching pad or launching structure. They can be forgotten once you have ‘taken off’. And they may become relevant again, once you’ve ‘landed’ and want to ‘take off’ again.
There are so many useful ways to approach meditation.
So I’m just allowing my intuition and my sense of circumstance to guide my response.
In fact, the best way, in my opinion, to respond to @Yazooneh is probably with dialogues and questions, not with simple assertions or so-called “answers”.
Then again, that’s usually the case.

its funny because i have always been confused about what meditation is but after your answer i went with my gut and i just meditate by laying down and doing nothing, observing whats going on inside my body. I could meditate more.

That sounds right, my friend.
A person sits on the ground. “I’m not moving” says the person, as they sit perfectly balanced on the surface of a planet flying around the Sun at 67,000 mph.
To me, that is your ‘doing nothing’.
