Welcome to my 10-minute focusing meditation where we'll use exteroceptive awareness to cultivate a deep sense of presence and tranquility. During this practice, you'll be invited to choose any object in your home to focus your attention on, and I'll be using the soothing sounds of a Tibetan bowl to help bring your mind back to the present whenever it starts to wander. Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, this simple yet powerful exercise is sure to bring you a sense of peace and calm. So grab your cushion or sit comfortably, and join me now for 10 minutes of focused mindfulness. • 16 week meditation challenge Introduction video here - • 16 Week Meditation Challenge - 5 Min ... • The 16-week meditation challenge is simple to follow, and the goal is to make meditation a part of our lives so we can enjoy its unlimited benefits in the rest of our lives. We spend so much time on the physical world, and exploring our inner world with daily meditation is beautiful. The best part of meditation is that it helps you become more yourself and lets you feel joy from within. • • My Personal Story of Meditation: • I used to practice one-hour-long meditation when I first started because I was so excited about the benefits that I heard from meditation. But then I wasn't able to maintain it; I was young and so result-oriented. If I didn't see the results, I thought it was a waste of time. Lately, I've been reading a book called The Wisdom of Enneagram, and I discovered I'm type three. This book strongly encourages people like me to do meditation, as it can be life-changing. So, I decided to build the habit of meditating, starting with 5 minutes and gradually increasing to 20 minutes now. Once I built the habit, it became a part of me. I may miss one day, but usually not two days in a row. If I'm really busy, I'll just close my eyes and do the simplest meditation like focusing on breathing and visualization. • How to practice meditation consistently: • If you just start practicing meditation, try to focus on building the habit first, and then worry about the benefits and results later. Sometimes, you don't even need to prepare a meditation cushion or pillow to get started. Think about the simplest behavior you can do to get yourself going. For me, it's just simply closing my eyes... and then everything comes naturally. Be mindful of thoughts like worrying about doing it correctly, posture, techniques, or making progress. All those thoughts are not helpful in practicing meditation consistently, for sure.
