Meditation Station
There are many ways to meditate. There is no right or wrong way. While you’re waiting for class to start, walking to the bus, or if you need a couple of minutes to pause, give these meditation techniques a try. Which ones help you feel more relaxed, calm and aware?
Breathing Listening
Close your eyes. Focus on your breath wherever you feel it most prominent in the body. Breathing in and out, count to 10. Breathing in at 1, breathing out at 2, and so on.
Close your eyes. Pay attention to the surrounding sounds, distant and close. Try and pick out 5 different sounds.
Body Scan Walking
Focus on what’s around you, in your immediate sight and beyond. Pay close attention to the different colours, light, texture, sizes and movement.
Close your eyes. Scanning down from head to toe, focus on each body part and notice how they feel at that present moment. Are there any feelings or sensations that you did not notice before?
