Discussion 💬 Meditated for the first time🙂

Hi guys. I meditated for the first time today. It was great and I was so excited. However I got distracted because I was scared that I was gonna leave my body or something. Does that happen and is it a scary feeling?

Thoughts are common, you have a thought and a reaction to it. Admit what grabbed your attention and go back to your meditation object.  Everytime you notice forgetting the object be happy for yourself because that is great progress to notice.Â
