It seems like longer I practice meditation, more often I can snap out of my thoughts. I like the app name "Waking Up", because that's how it feels - waking up from a dream.

I use an app called The Way. There's a simple daily progression which is really straightforward, and it is tailored towards Zen ideology/practise. If you struggle with Waking Up, I recommend giving The Way app a try.

I think meditation is similar to going to therapy. You can only notice the improvements after you have done the work.
