A Practical Mindful Meditation
Approach
As you already know, there are many ways to practice Mindful
meditation with some basic rules to follow. Different mindfulness techniques can be used to achieve that
famous state of not being affected by your thoughts while meditating.
Instead of speaking
generally on what mindfulness is, we will here post a certain technique of
Mindful meditation, so you to have a practical guide for your efforts to
achieve a successful meditation experience that will bring you self-control and
many other benefits. It is simple and easy technique and needs no special efforts.
This Mindful Meditation
Doesn’t Requires Deep Breathing
Start with your
sitting position for few minutes being aware for your environment. If your mind
wanders around, gently calm it by noticing your body and space around you.
Don’t be discouraged – thoughts are wild, and they will appear, but you are
stronger than them.
The second aspect is
the breath. For this technique of Mindful meditation, it’s not important to
breathe special way. The point of this is that mindfulness requires you to be
what you are, without manipulating your breath. Just let it flow naturally,
without paying too much attention to it. If we want to speak precisely, put
only 25% of your attention on your breathing process.
An Important Point for
Mindful Meditation
As we mentioned at the
beginning, the point is to focus your attention on your body and environment.
You don’t need to channel anything, just be aware of your posture, body parts,
and objects around you.
After being focuses,
the next part is to deal with your thoughts. A long chain of thoughts will
appear: fantasies, plans for future, past events, parts from TV shows,
men/women you like or dislike – just everything. If you are new in Mindful
meditation, just notice what happens with them. What is most important for this
technique is to mentally repeat to yourself, “It’s only thinking” for few
times, when your mind wanders wildly. Indeed, thinking isn’t truth always,
right?
Higher Form of
Self-control
This meditation should last no more than 15 minutes for
beginners (as one of their meditation exercises), while experienced practitioners
may extend it for 45 minutes or even longer. It is highly recommended to do it
in a sitting posture, as it is the most appropriate state to achieve the type
of focus and stillness needed for this meditation.
Finally, it is crucial
to understand that…
Mindful meditation is
about being into mindfulness whatever happens. It is higher form of
self-control and when you control yourself, you control your life.
Imagine how bad is to
allow every accidental thought to affect your behavior. There are millions of
them attacking your mind! Stay cool with them, my friend.
At the end, you will
finally be able to see the source where they come from. Being aware of that
source is the only way to overcome them and become able to experience the whole
spectrum of the inner peace the Mindful meditation can offer to you.
