Meditation: Early steps
A simple meditation practice should be like this:
- Sit comfortably. Your back should neither be so straight, nor it should lounge. Just get a nutral position.
- Calm down your legs first. Remove any tension within them.
- Calm down your arms. Situate your upper arms parallel to your upper body. Rest the palms of your hands on your legs wherever it feels most natural.
- Soften your gaze. Slowly soften your gaze, and close your eyes.
- Feel your breathe. Feel that warm air going inside your body, and coming out.
- When mind wanders, peacefully return to your breathe.
Start by doing this for 10 minutes daily.
