Slowly releasing the breath out through the
mouth. You may wish to imagine that the
breath has a colour, so you can fully
envisage the breath leaving the body.
Repeat this process, slowly breathing in and
out, following the breath for perhaps one
minute, three minutes, or 10 minutes.
During the meditation you may notice that
the mind wanders. That’s okay, that’s what
minds do. They get caught up in the past and
often the future. When this happens, simply
acknowledge these thoughts and return to
focusing on the breath.
Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe
out.
The process of continually returning to the
breath is key and the more you repeat this
practice on a daily basis, the longer you will
be able to maintain focus.
You could start to notice results after just one
week, and you may be aware that your clarity
of thought and relationships around you
improve as a result.
