My first meditation experience was with Reiki during my teenage days. I was lucky that my parents introduced me to meditation early on in my life. My parents were visionaries at that time. Unfortunately, I struggled with the practice and was too embarrassed to accept failure.
My biggest trouble during the practice session was an irresistible urge to sleep. The only option would be to nap, or my head would start aching. I wasn’t mature enough to fight it out. It used to be very bad. There was no way to resist sleep.
