The Focus Bee Show (80) Create a Regular Meditation Practice
Meditation has been such a powerful and transformative experience for me, that I feel it is essential to share it with you! So many incredible benefits come from having a regular meditation practice!
- The greatest benefit is the extra mental space you obtain. Thanks to this extra mental space, you can better manage your emotions, improve your relationships, and be more focused and efficient!
- By bringing your awareness back to your breath, you improve your meta-attention: the awareness you have about how you pay attention. This meta-attention is a superpower! Thanks to it, you can better understand your own patterns of thought, emotions and behaviour.
- To build a meditation practice, you only need to find a good time slot (even of 5 minutes to begin with!) and spend that time focusing on your breath. Every time you have a thought, you come back to your breath.
- Meditation is simple but not easy.
- You can do this with/without music/app.
Having meditated for years, I can honestly say that it has been the most transformational tool in my life. It has helped me through challenging emotional times, to manage my business, to better understand others and my clients, to understand my own triggers etc. The list goes on! I have seen similar results with all the people I know who regularly meditate! I wish you a wonderful journey with your own meditation practice!
