    Yes, you. I've been meditating based on instructions from Culadasa's The Mind Illuminated, and I'm super impressed. Highly recommended, you should try it.

    I will note, though, you should probably get the book and read it first. There are a lot of very important details - I never knew meditating could be so complicated. For example, he recommends that the core exercise should be to focus attention on the meditation object (usually the breath) while simultaneously trying to expand your peripheral awareness - trying to stretch the mind in two didections, basically. He also has a lot of insights to share into how the mind works. (Like the fact that attention and awareness are separate things and that you can have both at once and use them differently, for example.)
