==== Tracking Your Progress ====
Keeping track of your meditation practice helps you stay motivated and see how far you’ve come. It also allows you to reflect on the benefits and make any necessary adjustments.

'''1. Keep a Meditation Journal''': Document your sessions, noting the date, duration, and any observations or reflections. This helps you track your consistency and progress over time.

'''Example''': After each session, write down how you felt before and after meditating. Note any challenges or breakthroughs you experienced.

'''2. Reflect on Your Experiences''': Regularly review your journal to identify patterns, progress, and areas for improvement. Reflecting on your experiences helps reinforce the benefits of your practice.

'''Example''': At the end of each week, spend a few minutes reviewing your journal entries. Notice any changes in your mood, stress levels, or overall well-being.

'''3. Set Milestones and Celebrate Achievements''': Set small milestones to keep yourself motivated. Celebrate when you reach these milestones to reinforce your commitment.

'''Example''': Set a goal to meditate daily for a month. When you achieve this milestone, reward yourself with something meaningful, like a new meditation cushion or a peaceful nature walk.
