Remember there are a lot of methods to meditate . This is an old
yoga method that is simple and very effective but only if practised regularly so
give it 3 weeks - best 40 days and do it daily - best is in the morning -
freshens you up and gets you ready for the day . If not can do it anytime except
keep a gap of 25-30 mins.. after a meal .
Loosen any tight clothing - and
remove shoes/socks/belts if possible.
Enjoy life ponder on the little
pleasures like on eating a grape savour the taste.
The technique itself
is {takes about 10 mins.}:
Sit down cross legged on a mattress or carpet
OR on a comfortable chair if you can't sit down .
Close your eyes ;
Say a 10 second prayer of thank-u
Keep your arms on your
side , with your palms made in a fist and kept near your shoulders - your elbows
bent and near your body , Now in quick movements straighten and raise your
arms right up and then back to ur sides - let them slap your ribs lightly as
they come down - so breathe in when u raise and breathe out when u come down
. Do this 10 - 12 times then rest for half a minute then again and rest and
once again .
If you didn't get that part its OK - do the next part well -
its the main thing .
Now concentrate on ur breathing count slowly to
20 breathing slow - one count for every i n and o u t s l o
