I would be interested in participating in one of these but not that soon--I'm up to half an hour right now and am not sure I'm prepared to commit to a six hour sitting. But I'd be up for one that was scheduled for a bit further out, after I've had time to get into a routine and practice longer sittings.
I'm not sure if Will_Newsome meant this, but I imagined it would be six hours for the whole day and not a six hour sitting. The six hours could be broken up in one or two hour blocks. Sittings any longer than that might well be physically harmful.
Ah! I was also reading it as 6 hours at once. I think I would be interested in this.
For myself, have been trying to meditate every day since Monday. No progress so far except that while meditating I find it much easier to notice the effect specific thoughts are having on my emotions and finding it relatively easy to stop thinking about them by focussing on breath every time I notice an emotional reaction.
Good point. I still don't think I'm there yet, but certainly sooner. :)
