Watch this introduction before beginning the guided practice to understand the role of simple breath awareness in cultivating calmness and mindfulness.
Pointers
- Simply watch the breath. The natural flow of the breath is observed without effort.
- Once you develop this practice by watching the breath without trying to control it, you become observant in a detached and steady manner.
- You find yourself becoming less critical or judgmental about your distractions.
- You accept the reality of the present moment and notice when the mind becomes occupied or wanders, and you simply, calmly bring the mind back to the object of contemplation.
