Finding my center.




As work and life keeps me busy and my mind constantly racing, it becomes increasingly important for me to find ways to center myself and quiet my thoughts. Meditation is proving to be one of the best ways for me. Here are some of my meditation tips and routines:
  • Pick a time and try to meditate at that time everyday to build a routine.
  • Find a quiet place where you can be undisturbed and comfortable.
  • Don't expect too much from yourself, start small 5-10 minutes, then build from there.
  • Research different techniques, methods and benefits.
  • You can meditate anywhere anytime, so if you get stressed at work go sit in your car and use a few minutes to calm yourself.
  • Breath. Focus on your breathing.
  • Try your hardest to clear your mind and think of nothing, just be.
  • A friend suggested music, I haven't tried this yet, but I'll let you all know how I like it.
