1 - Choose a quiet and comfortable space where you won’t be easily distracted. It could be a dedicated meditation area or simply a peaceful corner in your home.
2 - Sit in a comfortable position. You can sit on a cushion or chair with your back straight, or you can even meditate while lying down.
3 - Decide on a specific duration for your meditation session. Beginners often start with 5-10 minutes and gradually increase the time as they become more comfortable with the practice
4 - Close your eyes to minimize external distractions.
5 - Direct your attention to your breath. Breathe naturally, paying attention to the sensation of each breath. Feel the rise and fall of your chest or the movement of your abdomen.
6 - Thoughts may arise during your meditation. When they do, acknowledge them without judgment and gently return your focus to your breath. Imagine your thoughts as clouds passing by, and let them drift away.
7 - Be aware of your breath and the present moment. Allow yourself to relax and let go of tension.
8 - When your meditation time is up, open your eyes and sit quietly for a moment before resuming your day.
