Preparation for deep meditation
Before starting meditation, it is essential to prepare a suitable environment:
- Quiet location: Choose a quiet space, where you won’t be interrupted. See tips for setting up your meditation space here.
- Comfortable posture: Sit with your spine straight, on the floor or in a chair, and keep your hands relaxed. You can also meditate lying down, but it may not be very productive for those who want to do Deep Meditation, because the mind can naturally lead you to fall asleep.
- Disconnection: Turn off cell phones and devices that can distract and disturb your concentration while you meditate. Avoid leaving incense, flames or any other element that could cause some kind of accident or take away your concentration
Deep meditation techniques
To enter a state of deep meditation, consider the following techniques:
- Conscious Breathing: Concentrate on your breathing, watching the air move in and out of your lungs. Take at least 7 deep, long breaths.
- Focus: determine what your mental focus will be during meditation and then try to maintain it, that is the challenge.
- Observation of thought: Allow your thoughts to flow freely without judgment or interaction.
- Ignore the inconveniences: back pain, numb legs or racing head… Ignore all this and continue meditating.
- Meditate without fighting: without expecting anything, without wanting anything. With time and habit you will reap the rewards. Believe and persist.
Guided meditation
Guided meditation can be a great tool for beginners, helping to direct the mind and facilitate a state of relaxation.
Then, as you follow the audio guide, hold the exhalation longer than the inhalation, focusing on diaphragmatic breathing to intensify the relaxation.
