I understand the concept of not trying to still the mind, just observing, but I find in the morning the stream of thoughts doesn't end, at least not in the time I have to sit.
How long are you setting aside each morning to meditate? If you are finding that you can't keep your mind focused, try counting your breaths and paying attention to how you are breathing. Are you taking short, staggered breaths, or are you breathing slowly and deeply?
