Meditation Techniques / Relaxation Techniques for beginners

When you are new to meditation, you will face challenges such as failure to stay focus for more than 5 minutes or to sit comfortably for more than 2 minutes. I know and I have been there before but trust me, meditation techniques / relaxation techniques are not as difficult as you may think.

Meditation is used to relief stress, worry and anxiety and leave you with a complete relax state of mind and inner peace. To master the art of meditation is a long life journey but to start now and to see some positive changes in your life is a wonderful experience. Let’s see how you can start immediately with the following exercise.

Focus on your breathing – find a quiet place where you know you would not be disturbed. You should feel comfortable enough, not too cold or nor too hot. Sit on a chair or on the floor, whichever is convenient to you. You may use a small pillow to cover your back if you want. Do not lie down otherwise you will fall asleep.

Close your eyes and take 3 deep breathe, while inhaling and exhaling slowly in the count of 10. This exercise is to help you to calm down and stay focus. Once you are completely comfortable and calm, start focusing on the sound of your breathing. Focus on the sound of the air entering and leaving your body constantly. After a while you might start feeling restless, random thoughts pop in your mind or you feel itchy here and there. Don’t stress, just scratch yourself for a while and go back to your attention to your breathing.

You goal is to free your conscious from daily stress, worries and fears. To know whether you are doing this correctly, after a while you will begin to notice that your body is becoming lighter, your muscles are loosen and relaxing and a tingling sensation across your body. You might feel excited which is completely normal and a true sign that you are now entering into deep meditation.
