A good way to start out with breath meditation is to focus on breathing out slowly and breathing in fully. Its good at first to count the seconds it takes to breath out and in. You should be breathing out for more time than you breath in, and the in breath should be a physical reaction. For instance, it takes you 15 seconds to expell a full breath, and then you take your next full breath in 5 seconds, completely filling your lungs. As you breath, make each breathe a seperate occurance, and don't keep track of how many breaths you take. Focus all your attention just on the one breath you are currently taking. |

I think of it as a piston in my chest, moving up and down, like a ball in a pipe, rolling from top to bottom, then back to top again, not being controlled by gravity, propelled by itself alone. Think of the breathing, but don't control the breathing. Watch, don't touch. Fell, don't grasp. |

Oh, go into the Sleep and Health forum. Do a search for a thread called "99 breathes to relieve a wandering mind" |
|
I will definitely check out that thread Ninja. I was about to hijack this thread and ask "How can you shut up your brain TO meditate"? |

You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.
