Books on meditation Anonymous Wed Dec 1 12:26:42 2021 No.19495302 [Reply] [Original]

I want to be less affected by emotions, stress and fear, and have more concentrations. What kind of meditation can I do to achieve it?

I do work out. I can't do the other stuff you say because I work a lot every day. I plan on retiring in a few months.
But I'm not just talking about stress relief. There are times in my life when I found myself losing control of my emotions a lot, like my amygdala was seething. I don't like it when it happens, and I would like to improve it
