Hi Stella91
My advice would be to start to meditate for 5 mins at a time and increase when it gets easier. Your first thing you should do is try to make a habit of meditating every day and try at the same time of the day morning and afternoon/evening is best, one or twice a day. That should be your first goal.
First you wont get any results till everyday adds up to about 11 hours of consistent meditation, then you should start to feel some results but it could depend from person to person. Try not to have any expectations at first and know it will help you in the long run, i promise you it will and will be worth your while!!!
I would also start with guided meditations from youtube but i would recommend breathing or mantra meditation, which one of those two is easier for you. If you can try breathing meditation is the best one to start i believe(learn from my mistake and breathing should be you first practice, mistake no.1)
Also, i would stick to one and not jump around from one meditation to another(mistake no.2)
During the meditation you will get allot of distractions like thought, body sensation and other stuff but is okay, just allow,allow and allow them(mistake no.3, i tried to stop my thoughts) to be there and don't try to stop them they are just more distracting thoughts!
That is the point of meditation is that you will be distracted cause that's what minds do and to came back to the breath, it's the practice of doing that, that is very important!!! You are working your mind muscle.
The thought that you can't meditate and it's not for you, is one you will get more than ones but it's just another thought, allow it like i said above and release it by going back to the breath.
For me meditation anybody can do it, it's like picking up weights(the exercise of doing it) to build muscle, you cant say you cant do it cause you can do the exercise(start small weights first and then go bigger). You just need to pick the weights up and do the exercises. The practice of picking up weights consistently that's the key to build muscle and the same with meditation it's the practice of allowing what is...the sitting there trying to allow thoughts or what ever and release them by returning and concentrating on the breath, that's meditation to me at the beginning stages.
The only way you can't meditate is if you don't sit there and try. If you sit there and only get it right ones to realize the thought is a distraction and come back to breath you done well and if you can't it also okay but you will get it right by just sitting there and putting the effort in, even for 5 mins
It's all about baby steps at first and then we go from there.The practice of it is important and not the getting it right is okay cause you will get it right eventually. I also have allot of issues and if i can get it right anybody can.
Sorry if it's confusing but i tried my best and if you have any questions you are more than welcome to ask :)
Best of luck
