Meditation seems to be more popular than ever. This is great news, as meditation does so much for the body, mind, and spirit. It can help to reduce stress in the body. It assists the mind in feeling peaceful and less attached to the outcome of things. It lifts our spirits and makes us feel connected to the larger world.
Some of the meditation techniques are-
1. Breathing
Simply following the breath is an easy way to start your practice before moving on to other more in-depth practices. Because the breath has such an impact on our whole being, focusing on breathing brings about a restful and calm nature. Focus on the simple act of breathing in and out.
2. Gazing
When following this method, we are using our sense of sight to silence the mind. Gazing at a still candle flame in the dark, for instance, helps the mind become very focused. That is a good way to start this type of meditation.
3. Visualization
This method involves going within, with our eyes closed, and seeing some object such as our chakras or our heart and holding that image as an object of meditation.If you find that your thoughts are drifting from that image, reimagine it and focus on it again.
