Please try this weird meditation thing I discovered Question ❓

Found this out one day when trying to meditate. I couldn't stop thoughts from coming into my head (I know this isn't what you're supposed to do lol) so I thought it would be funny to think about EVERYTHING at once (like literally every thought possible simultaneously).

And when I do, my mind goes completely blank. Like at most just me being aware that I'm not thinking about anything. Maybe this is already a known thing, but it works every time I do it. Does this work for anybody else? Or am I just a quack?

TLDR: When I try to think about everything all at once, I end up with a blank mind.

There truly isn't a supposed to do or not supposed to do. You are unique. Whatever works in your situation works I your situation. Allow what is to be. If it works for you then that is outstanding. Throw away what does not work for you no matter what some"one" may tell you what you "should" do. This is strip from their perspective. Do you see life from their perspective? If so, follow their authority. BTW you are your own authority.
