Don't worry, dreamer101. It's completely normal to struggle with focusing during meditation, especially in the beginning. One tip that has helped me is to start small and gradually increase the duration of your meditation sessions. This will help you build your focus muscles slowly without overwhelming yourself.

Another helpful tip is to use guided meditations or mindfulness apps. They provide verbal cues and guidance which can help keep your mind from wandering. Also, don't be too hard on yourself if you find your thoughts drifting. Just gently bring yourself back to focus each time.

Try incorporating deep breathing exercises before starting your meditation. This will help calm your mind and body, making it easier to focus during the practice. You can also try focusing on a specific object or sound to anchor your attention.

Remember that meditation is not about completely clearing your mind of thoughts. It's about acknowledging them without judgment and letting them go. Keep practicing and eventually, you'll notice an improvement in your ability to focus.
