What is meditation?
✅ Meditation is awareness. It’s practicing awareness.
❌ Meditation is NOT about emptying the mind, or not thinking, or concentrating really hard.
❌ You don’t have to block out thoughts or create a special state of mind or be peaceful or calm.
How to meditate.
⦿ Find a spot that feels good and where you’re relatively undistracted.
⦿ Determine how much time you want to sit.
⦿ Choose something to be aware of. Use current moment sensory experiences such as listening to sounds, feeling the body, or focusing on the breath.
⦿ Sit comfortably, but calm and assertive.
⦿ I recommend keeping your eyes open.
⦿ Start your timer.
⦿ Be aware of sounds by listening.
⦿ Notice yourself thinking.
⦿ Come back and listen.
⦿ Do this over and over.
