The first session was in Instituto Tecnologico Centro Americano (ITCA) in Santa Tecla. There were 288 vocational education students that will learn meditate for the first time. But the institute prepared them asking them to draw pictures about meditation and inner peace. I guided meditation for 30 minutes. And for those who meditated, it didn’t feel like half an hour. They were a bit shy in sharing their experience but some mentioned that they didn’t feel the awareness of the body and didn’t hear the voice at some point but still being able to maintain concentration the whole time. Some asked question about the sleepy mind, how to use meditation to help improve their sleep and sleep a bit less, how to know when you need to clean the mind once it got contaminated a lot.
