Meditation is a skill, so it is something you practice. You practice at whatever level you are at. In a sense it is very simple, if we were to simplify our practice as much as possible, it would be to learn how to relax your body, close your eyes, and to work with conscious attention and conscious imagination. You are going to struggle, with the same exact factors that you are struggling with self-observation throughout the day, which is falling into fascination, into identification, into dreams.
