Hi, I feel really cramped up in the mind at the moment, and low on energy, so I'm in need of a vent.

I feel really confused at the moment; I don't even know where to begin mentally with thinking about the correct perspectives... there's so much negativity in the world that is bad for my sensitivity... by this I'm not talking about people who feel sad or depressed, not at all, because that would be unkind and incorrect - I love good natured people and I know what it is to be sad and depressed as many people forementioned sometimes feel, but what I'm talking about in terms of negativity that's bad for me is: bullies, politicians, unneccessary remarks that lack any kind of wisdom at all, downright malicious and unwise perspectives, etc.

I'm feeling frustrated about music practice too... I feel the healthiest way for me to do this, is centre my days around relaxation and meditation, then do music, but that's not easy to always feel, especially when there's a huge weight in my mind of various questions... I'm thinking about things that are stressing me out in their own right - I'm thinking about topics like good and evil, Spirituality, conspiracy theories, and just the way humans who are meant to be an advanced species treat each other... it makes so little sense, things just feel like one big mess.

I only really find sense in wisdom and wise perspectives, but even they make me feel like I'm not doing something right, or like I have to be very careful not to do things the wrong way.

I think I need to meditate.

Hi sam,

Sorry you are feeling stressed and confused. I think I can relate somewhat. It isn't easy being a sensitive person or pondering the big questions of the universe. I hope meditation is helpful for you. If you would like to talk, feel free to send me a PM.

Maybe, you should do your music practice and then do your relation and meditation to just wind down.
If you can jut sit outside, in your backyard or in a park and listen to all of the noises that nature makes. The whistle of the bird, the rustle of the leaves. Just take some time out to gather you energy once again and I don't know what your religion is, but mine is Wiccan. If you are Wicca, bring up a shield to protect you from all the negative energies. Remember, you must always take time out for yourself.
