Is there any idea to do longer meditationsessions?

Hi! I just wondering if anybody had the experience that longer meditationsessions gives better results? I mean calmer mind in everyday life.
Now I am meditating 30 minutes per day, but I am thinking about prolonging my session to 1 hour.
What do you think? Anybody who has any experience?

Love Julia

    In my humble opinion, a session longer that 30 or 40 minutes is not likely to be much useful. On the other hand, it would be lot better to have two or three sessions per day even if they are of shorter duration.

    Thank you for your answer!
    I think it is also good to make several sessions a day.

    Have anyone here experienced any benifits when you have prolonged your sessions or done them more often?

    I think it's highly individual. There are people who meditate for hours and hours non-stop. People who go on meditation retreats often meditate for an hour several times a day. But on a day to day basis I think you just have to do what works for you and don't have any particular expectations (which is another word for attachments) for something to happen.
