For all the hockey fans out there you may need to try the Meditation for a Calm Heart!!
Sit up tall, close the eyes or look straight ahead with the eyes 1/10th open.
Bring left hand on the centre of the chest at the Heart Centre. The palm is against the chest, and the fingers are parallel to the ground, pointing to the right.
Make Gyan Mudra with the right hand (touch the tip of the index finger with the tip of the thumb)
Raise the right hand up to the right side as if giving a pledge. The palm faces forward, the three fingers not in Gyan Mudra point up. The elbow is relaxed near the side with the forearm perpendicular to the ground.
Concentrate on the flow of the breath. Inhale slowly and deeply through both nostrils. Then suspend the breath in and raise the chest. Retain it as long as possible.
Then exhale smoothly, gradually and completely. When the breath is totally out, lock the breath out for as long as possible - No GASPING!
Continue for 3 minutes.
Would like to hear from others. Partly why I do the 40 day meditation challenge--to share with others.
ReplyDeleteSo have been able to stay with morning meditation 6-7 AM-- do 11 minutes chanting the Adhi Shakti Mantra (Sp?) and follwed by silent meditation--don't concern myself with how long!!--it varies. Happy spring everyone! Faye
