Some masters meditate hours. They sit just one point and held their attention for hours. In some rare cases, they are sitting in the same place for days! It’s amazing what we do, consider with a little practice.

But what about those other things that we just sit and meditate to do? Some of us have jobs, spouses, children, car payments, etc. Do we try to retire so early there was still time for light, or we swear all “worldly” things and find a cave to sit?

I think none of this is an ideal solution. In fact, I doubt that anyone would listen to me when I recommend any of these decisions, anyway. Ideally, we want to somehow begin to incorporate meditation is in our daily lives. The best way is to start simple. Apart from a few hours is difficult, extreme and unlikely. Except for a few minutes is easy, relaxing and helps you start to swing it in your practice.

Everything you need to start with meditation is one minute of silence. Find a place where you can close your eyes, relax and rest and quiet for just sixty seconds enjoy.

You want a Focus for your meditation session to choose. It can be anything. It is the feeling of feet against the ground. It can occur independently of internal noise (or silence). The most common target is in the air. If you want, choose an element of the development of the feeling of breathing air through the nose, the movement of the chest as you breathe or the expansion and contraction of the abdomen as you breathe.

Sit quietly for a minute and keep your concentration. If you drive your attention, bring it back. It is perfectly normal and acceptable for your attention drifting during the meditation. This is part of meditation! If this happens, just relax and gently hold your attention on the object of meditation. If the awareness campaign to be particularly frustrating, you can always add a smile Determine your attention to wander in the beginning: relaxed, smiling and calm returned.

You can start a mindfulness meditation, or select it, your practice of meditation to all. It is very convenient for a clock or a pair of discrete alarm that alerts you when a minute longer have. In a first stage as one minute for eternity, but in practice we could, it is how quickly a minute to go surprise.

When you start building your attention and you feel comfortable in your meditation minute may take up to 2 minutes, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. Note that an extended time is only 60 single, 1 minutes. On the other hand, see a meditation minutes during the day. No matter how you start your practice after one minute of meditation to control development, you will find an overview of increasingly surprising and peace in the space of 60 seconds!
