Instructions

  1. Find a quiet and comfortable place to sit. Try cross-legged on the floor, on a blanket or cushion, or in a chair
  2. Sit up tall. You can imagine a string pulling you up from the top of your head. Allow your shoulders to relax and your chest to feel wide and open
  3. You can leave your eyes open or close them
  4. Focus on your breath as it flows in and out of your body
  5. Allow your mind to rest. As the mind wanders, acknowledge your thoughts and gently return your attention to your breath
  6. Start with 5-10 minutes and gradually increase the time as you get more comfortable
