In the theory of meditation it is said that ” Meditation should be done equal to own age in minutes”. For example if one is 25 years old then meditation should be done for 25 minutes. Although 10 min meditation technique is popular for daily practice.
Practice for meditation
Getting ready:
- Find a place to sit down comfortably, keeping a straight back.
- Ensure you’ll be left undisturbed (switch off your mobile).
- Set the timer for 10 minutes.
Checking in:
- Take five deep breaths, breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth and gently close your eyes.
- Focus on the physical sensation of the body on the chair and the feet on the floor.
- Scan down through the body and notice which parts feel comfortable and relaxed, and which parts feel uncomfortable and tense.
- Notice how you’re feeling – that is, what sort of mood you’re in right now.
