A Breathing Anchor For The Wandering Mind

A breathing anchor for your wandering mind. A practice where you root your awareness into the present moment, like an anchor that roots a ship to one place. The breath is an anchor to the present moment. In the sitting meditation practice the idea is not to stop thoughts, resist or get rid of emotions, feelings and sensations, or to reach some metaphysical state. In fact, thoughts are not the enemy and instead of trying to fight or resist them, the aim is to notice and observe them.
