So, how can you start meditating to improve your life? With a busy schedule and a busier mind, taking the time to meditate may be tricky. However, five minutes of practice can be as effective as an hour. The sincerity of the effort matters far more than elapsed time since meditation is about stepping out of minutes and hours and into moments. 1.  Start Small So if you can only manage one minute of mindfulness, that is great! It means you have already remembered the value to stopping and shifting even momentarily from doing to being. 2. Try Walking Now, meditating does not mean you have to sit still. Walking meditations are just as beneficial! So go out in nature and just be. No music, no iPhone. Just be. 3. Dont Worry If your Mind Wanders Also, meditating does not mean you have to somehow make your mind blank. If your mind wanders, that’s natural. All you have to do is bring the attention back to your breath each time. 4. Make It a Habit Meditation, among many other types of energy work, certainly helps with focus and improving intuitive abilities. The more you practice meditating, the easier it becomes to hear your inner voice, your intuition. May your days be balanced with relaxing and renewing activities!
