I don't know why, but I have a bit of trouble with focusing on my breathing. I focus on it TOO much and I start to either get distracted or think about how I could focus my breathing which doesn't get me relaxed.
Let me just get a brief analysis on what you say. And dont get into fury after you read this .
I don't know why.... This is pretty interesting. You are probably confused. Thats pretty normal, when conscious fights with subconscious.
I have little trouble with focusing on my breating... Trouble. Thats becouse you are fighting. Forget the fight and think of it as of collaboration with partner which needs time to understand you. You must think of it as of collaboration. Or you will fight senseless fight.
I focus on it TOO much... I dont think, you are focusing too much. It is probably becouse you are controlling too much. But the observer stance will help, believe me. I've had this problem too. {and sometimes it reccurs}.
I start to either get distracted... Of course. If you use your mental power too much, you will loose mental stamina. And this distracts. Goal is to observe, not to controll. Goal is not to be angry when you get distracted, but to return where you want to be and be happy that brain was clever enough to tell you, that you were not where you wanted.
...or think about how I could focus my breathing... And now you probably know, how you would analyse this one.
...which doesn't get me relaxed. Of course. Relax in a war? Senseless.
