I always said I'd never be that person, but I totally checked my phone during a meditation session.

Actually, being strict about meditation rules kinda misses the point. If your mind wanders to your phone, that's just what your brain is doing right then. Noticing that urge and choosing to check it is its own kind of mindfulness. The goal isn't to be perfect, it's to be aware. So you noticed a thought about your phone and acted on it, big deal. That's way more real than pretending you're some zen master in a silent room.

Honestly, this feels like how we treat everything now, like even our distractions get a participation trophy.

My last attempt at meditating ended with me looking up pizza places on my phone, lmao.
