MM: Breath Counting

from The Middle Way with Dr. Matthew Goodman Hosted by Matthew Goodman, PhD

Monday Mini: Breath Counting. This is a great way to anchor our attention in the present moment when the mind is especially busy. -Find a comfortable posture. Close the eyes if it feels safe. -Notice your breathing. Maybe find a spot where you can feel the breath most vividly (e.g., tips of nostrils, belly). -On each exhale, count "1," then "2," and so on. Count to 10 exhales, then start over. -If your mind wanders and you forget what number you're on, no problem! Just start over again at 1.
