Practice and you can learn how to meditate. Meditation has became very common practice within the last few years. Meditation means the ability to clear your mind of thoughts and getting deep into the mind. Beyond your physical body meditation often anywhere is the goal blocking all thoughts and sounds around you making your mind quiet. Now, learning how to train your mind is the first step in meditation. You should be in a comfortable chair and also have great posture and back straight. When you first try to meditate you don’t have to cross legs but as you get better with posture start crossing legs.
(1) Selecting your posture some prefer sitting down with legs crossed or lying down on your back. Once ready relax your eyes closing them halfway and focusing on object.
(2) Take a slow deep breathe you should feel your stomach rising and falling and your chest stays still. Repeating breathing method inhaling for 3 seconds and exhaling for 6 seconds in doing so for up to 15-20 minutes.
(3) You should relax every single muscle within your body releasing any tension.
(4) Focusing your mind can be hard sometimes your mind will want to wander. But, remember to bring your mind back to one single point. Eventually your mind will settle just on that point.
(5) When you have s steady focus on one thought next you can try getting your mind to process on nothing. Just open you mind to no thoughts this will take time meaning practice. But, hopefully at some point you can get there. If you still have thoughts passing throw just take this tip. Take that thought then release it without putting a label on it.
Another great tip is locating a comfortable noise free place. Choosing an outside area listen to the birds and looking at the sky can be very relaxing. Now some people have meditation rooms that is relaxing and very comfortable space full of candles, pillows and calming music playing. A very effective technique is praying while meditating.
