With WILD-ing I was told to clear your thoughts, focus on breathing etc. etc. I find this extremely difficult because I have lacking control over my thoughts. (I think you guys know what I mean. ) My problem is with "recent" events, for example, I have been watching a cartoon series which I have enjoyed very much. So every time I have nothing specific to think about, or nothing I am SUPPOSED to think about, the cartoon series will pop into my head, and I will start thinking of the last episode I watched. No matter how hard I try NOT to think of it, it will keep popping back into my head. (I have tried to re-focus on breathing, or the patterns in my eye-lids, ANYTHING else, but it always slips back in.)

So after that extremely long intro, my question is, is there some technique that can help with clearing the mind? Some practice that will give me better control?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I am still getting used to these forums, quite confusing. So pardon me if there is a place for this kind of thing.
