LWSD 31-Day Challenge #27: Learn to Meditate to Reduce Stress!

Share

From Live Well San Diego:

If it’s been a long week, why not start the day fresh with a quick 10-min meditation?

Anyone can practice meditation. It’s simple and inexpensive, and it doesn’t require any special equipment.

Find a quiet spot with few distractions. Sit comfortably in a chair with your hands on your thighs, legs uncrossed. Focus your attention on your breathing. After a couple of minutes, begin to take deep, even-paced breaths using your diaphragm muscle to expand your lungs.

As you breathe, focus on what you experience during meditation, such as nearby sounds or the flow of your breath. You can observe your thoughts and emotions, but let them pass without judgment.
