Maybe learning to meditate intimidates you, and in any case it’s tough to find the time for daily meditation. The solution to both

problems is an easy meditation you can learn right now, that will only take a minute to do each day.

An Easy Meditation

Technique

Breathing through your mouth expands your chest, but if you breath through your nose you’ll notice how your

abdomen extends. You see, nose-breathing causes the diaphram to pull air to the bottom of your lungs. This delivers a good dose of

oxygen into your bloodstream and brain. It also tends to relax you.

Breathing through your nose is healthier, and it’s the basis of

this one-minute meditation. You simply close your eyes, let the tension go out of your muscles, let go of your thoughts (to the extent

possible), and take four slow, deep breaths through your nose, paying attention to your breathing.

Is Meditation This

Easy?

You’re not likey to get you into a deep meditative state with this simple exercise. You will get benefits, though. These

will almost certainly include a clearer mind and a reduction in stress.

Try to develop a “trigger” for your meditation. You can do

your four breaths when you get into the car, for example, or right after lunch each day. A trigger is a place or time that reminds you, so

your meditation becomes a habit.

Some may say this isn’t “real” meditation, but there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the relaxation

you’ll get from this technique. You can always pursue deeper meditation later, if you wish. In the meantime, remember that not

everything has to be difficult to be of value. Why not do an easy one-minute meditation right now?
