HOW TO MEDITATE
First, accept that you are not your thoughts – you observe your thoughts!
As soon as you realize your mind slipped away from Paying Attention, gently bring it back! Even if it keeps wandering, it’s okay, keep bringing your awareness back.
Be persistent and patient; you are training your ego. Show it that you mean business and eventually your mind will listen to you and your thoughts will subside.
Don’t judge yourself; rather, congratulate yourself each time you bring your mind back!
If you feel anxious relax it! Your emotions are like a muscle- observe the anxiety, tense it, then relax it. And bring the mind back.
Thank you SukhiDevi,
I am grateful for you!
