Everyone’s been talking about meditation and methods that will make us unite with ourselves lately. But why is it so important, how to get started? The following article will explain everything you need to know.
The most basic and simple practice is turning your full attention, for a second or a few seconds at a time, to the breath, sights, or sounds around you, as many times a day as possible. This simple practice can be performed anytime, anywhere.
At the same time, any action you take can be used as a ground for practice. Give each action your full attention and perform it on the best side.
Once a day, you should practice concentration for 5-15 minutes. Such a practice must be done in a pleasant and quiet place, without distractions. During practice, don’t try to completely avoid thoughts, but stay alert and focus as much as possible on the sights and sounds around you, body sensations, and breathing.
Occasionally, and especially during times of emotional turmoil, try the practice for longer periods, practice concentration several times a day, go out to practice in nature, or join a meditation group.
