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.
