meditation tips for beginners

4/9/2019

0 Comments

 
When I discovered meditation several years ago my life and health completely changed. We live in such a busy and fast paced world, it feels so good to take time to rest your mind and body.  Here are some of my top tips that I wish I heard before I started my practice...
Picture

this shouldn't be taken too seriously

You´re sitting alone (or with a group) in silence. It’s okay to laugh at yourself and It’s okay not to take meditation too seriously. I think people tend to put too much pressure on themselves to become the ¨perfect” meditator, when really meditation is one of the few things that we don´t have to think or try hard to do. A meditative and peaceful state is one of our most natural states! 

find a quiet place 

I recommend meditating in a quiet spot, where you will not fear that people will see you. Let's be honest,  people who aren’t familiar with meditation might think you are a bit crazy if they catch a glimpse of you sitting alone in silence, haha! 

guided meditations

When you are first starting out your meditation practice, it can be difficult to relax. You may not know what to think about (or what not to think about). Guided meditations can guide you into a state of relaxation and help you to release your thoughts. Even though I’ve been meditating for years, I still find guided meditations helpful, especially when my mind is super busy or I want to experience new sensations.  

open your eyes

many people are taught to close their eyes during mediation, but some people find more comfort in keeping them open while focusing on an object. 

instead of sitting,
try lying down
​or lying on your side

if you do not feel relaxed sitting upright for long periods of time, try laying down or laying on your side, just make sure you do not fall asleep :) #guilty

wear loose clothing

This is something not many people think about until they begin their meditation, wearing tight clothing restricts how deeply you breathe in and out. It may also distract you from your practice. 

​Thank you for reading and for all of your support. I hope you found these tips helpful! If you have any questions or need any advice, feel free to reach out to me through the comments below or Instagram.
I would love to help!

much love,

Jordan xx
