Meditation has become much of a social norm for
people from all walks of life due to the immense
benefits that it brings. Long gone are the
days where youre met with wary eyes when
speaking about the positivity that meditation can
bring to ones life. But with the immense
popularity of meditation slowly growing in
strength, comes the question How do beginners
meditate or how long to meditate for beginners?
Introduction
6
Find a quiet spot to meditate in It is
imperative to find the perfect spot in your home
where you will remain undisturbed by the world
throughout the entire duration of your
meditation. Dont drain your mental capacity
before you start meditating by putting yourself
in a position in which you will be constantly
disturbed. The goal is to bring your attention
to one place, yourself. When you get distracted,
bring your attention to your senses.
Step one Find a Quiet Spot

Find a quiet spot to meditate in Take on a
comfortable pose. You dont have to sit in a
complicated lotus position or the usual
meditative pose youre always seeing images
of. Comfort is more important than nailing a
particular power pose for meditation. Whether
that position means sitting cross-legged or with
your legs dangling from a chair isnt relevant.
You may choose to close your eyes or keep them
slightly open, depending on whats most
comfortable to you.
Step Two Adopt a comfortable position

Be Aware of Your Surroundings After finding
your comfortable position, simply sit in
stillness and silence as you become aware of your
surroundings. This is not the same as thinking
of something. Rather, you are observing the
things around you and comprehending them as your
senses register them. When thoughts that dont
relate to where you are in that very moment
arise, ignore them. Dont suppress them, dont
grow upset with yourself for having those
thoughts.
Just know that you didnt actively think them and
only by understanding that you didnt actually
think those thoughts can you become free of them.
Step Three Be Aware of Your Surroundings

It may seem tough at first, but you have to
realize that not a single practitioner got to
reap the benefits of meditation without prior
years of practice and perseverance. By
practicing every single day, youll eventually
come to a point where the benefits of meditation
outweigh the time spent every day pursuing this
activity. Make yourself a promise to stick to
this regime and before you know it, your life
will change for the better.
