We all have things that pull our minds in several directions–family, work, social life, relationships, finances. This can become overwhelming, as thoughts about these things clutter our mind space.

Allowing the time and energy to quiet the mind and be more present will consequently enable you to be more happy, more at peace, and more loving, with more energy available for all of these areas of life.

GET INTO A GOOD POSITION

Take a deep breath and sigh it out. Sit comfortably and relax your body as much as you can.

GET IN TOUCH WITH YOUR BREATHING

Close your eyes and find the place in your body where you feel your breath most prominently.

DETACH FROM YOUR THOUGHTS

Within a few seconds, distractions like thoughts, body sensations, or images will start to bubble up. Realize that this is normal and gently return to the anchor point. Continue this for eight minutes.
