Before starting your meditation it is helpful to spend a few moments to 'tune in'. If you are a Kundalini Yogi you can tune in with chanting Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo - 3 times.
For others it might be sitting up tall with a straight spine, hands in Prayer Position and spending a few moments tuning in to your energy and how you feel physically and mentally. Or you could chant the universal sound of Om, set an intention for the Meditation, or just enjoy a few long deep breaths.
This acts as a transition from one activity to the other. Likewise at the end of the Meditation it is important to spend a few moments just be-ing, observing anything that came up, acknowledging the time you have spent, honouring yourself and feeling gratefulfor the time for you. Enjoy!
Marie, great tips for before & after the meditation, I'm going to start doing that!
