Oh the meditation just takes practice. Just like the poses the more you work at it the easier it will be. One day you'll realize that you don't have all the chatter inside you you did before.

Ok, so the part I am having difficulty with is the meditation. I find it so difficult to meditate. I close my eyes and try to concentrate on the "space between my eyebrows" like my teacher says but I just can't seem to "quiet my mind". My thoughts race back and forth between stuff that happened at work or in my family, friends, husband, etc...I try to re-focus back but its really hard. I'm wondering how other people manage to meditate properly without all that "mind traffic" going on.
