What comes from your mind during meditation?

[Angrboda]

When I meditate, I concentrate on the breath. It's easier to attend to my focus with this simple meditation. I used to try other kinds of meditation but I found that "exploring" other forms of meditation became a distraction in itself. I would try one technique, then switch mid-course to another - it just wasn't productive. I don't know how you differentiate meditating, thinking deeply about things, from non-meditative thinking, but if it works for you, great. I could never do it.
