How to do anywhere meditation?

Here we are talking about the Meditation that you can do under any circumstances.

First of all, don’t let the thought of perfection add a stress to your meditation. Its simple and you can do it on your own.

Initially you can do it as discipline or by reminding yourself but slowly it becomes a habit and a natural thing to you.

Following are quick tips to do meditation anywhere and on your own:

Initially prompt yourself to get into a meditation then slowly you would know when you need to.

· Deep breathing: Concentrate on feeling as you inhale and exhale. Breathe deeply and slowly. When your attention wanders, gently return your focus to your breathing.

· Be aware about your body: While breathing be aware about your body. The noise, pain anything in your body. Be a spectator.

· Mantra repeatations: Keep chanting.

· Meditate while walking: Keep breathing deeply or chanting while walking and give attention to your body movements.

· Prayers: Build your faith. Build your own motivational lines which you can use while open eyes meditation and repeat them.

· Written Text: Keep your written text ready and keep reading and reflecting on that.

· Gratitude: Be grateful to each day. Give attention to miracles happening around you. Understand that each day is special each event is special and also value the cause and effect relation of the situation.

Don’t compete, not even with yourself:

Remember your mind will wander and your brain will want to keep you away from any kind of discipline. So be vulnerable. Whenever your mind wanders during meditation, and thoughts start troubling you slowly return to the initial point, feeling you were focusing on.

Keep on experimenting in variety of situations and you will respect the wonders it make for your own good.

There is no right or wrong in meditation:

Yes. There is no right or wrong. What matters is what you feel and your expression of the feeling should not hurt any being. That is it.
