This wandering process can be totally distracting, and it has probably happened at least dozens of times. Mindfulness allows you to stop all these thoughts from popping into your head. This is achieved by quietening these thoughts by concentrating on just one thing for about 10 minutes. Many people like to focus on the sounds of a waterfall or birds chirping in the background. Or you could concentrate on your breathing by becoming aware of each breath that you take. Active Meditation: This technique involves using physical activity to help sync your mind and body. To practice this type of meditation, you can walk or attend a yoga class. Affirmations: This technique is one type of meditation that you may have heard of. It is done by repeating a phrase or quote over and over. Select a phrase that holds meaning to you and repeat it several times during the day. Insight Meditation: With this form of meditation, you focus on one thought or feeling. Choose a topic such as love or anger, and then meditate on what this means to you. Guided Meditation: This type of meditation uses some form of guidance. It could be a person in the same room with you, or it can be done by listening to a guided meditation MP3. During the process, you actually let your thoughts run away with you. This can be a very enjoyable and liberating experience. Support the show"Be the person your soul wishes you to be." - Don WeyantOffering step-by-step instructions for beginners.
