Best Meditation Techniques For Beginners

Step One

You firstly want your mind to become aware of your body. This can be done by doing some mild exercise such as a walk around the block or light house cleaning. This will help to increase the strength of the root chakra.

Step Two

Next you will want to ground yourself. This can be done easily as the the below image shows. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Bend the knees slightly and push the pelvis forward just a bit to sink your weight forward. You want to feel the ground beneath you with your feet flat to the ground and your body balanced. Remember to breath and relax, you are simply allowing your to become grounded. Remain in this position for 3-5 minutes.

Step Five

Continue this until you get the peaceful clean feeling. When you are finished you should feel completely relaxed. (I’ve been known to sneak in a nap after this exercise because I feel so relaxed.)

Notes:

With practice you will be able to achieve this clean relaxed peace more easily and quickly.

It is important that you have a quiet place to do this where you will not be disturbed.

Remember to turn off the phone or other things that may distract you.

If you have chakra mantras, you can also use them during this exercise.

It is also ok to sit on a mat or pillow of you find the floor is too hard for you.

Remember, this is easy, don’t over think it. Just breathe.
