Summary: Today we are doing a guided meditation for mindfulness. This episode takes you through the whole process of actually sitting down and meditating.<br> Before beginning to listen to this episode, find a place where you will not be distracted. Turn off your cell phone, or put it on airplane mode. Turn off any other electronic devises. Then begin this episode.<br> Find a comfortable place to sit. Use a chair that will allow your back to be straight. Then gently close your eyes and mouth. Put your hands on your lap in a comfortable position.<br> Then you want to begin to follow your in-breath and your out-breath. You can do this either at the nose or the abdomen.<br> When your mind wanders, simply make a mental note, “Thinking, thinking.” Then gently bring your attention back to the breath. You will find yourself doing this over and over again. That is normal, it is part of the meditation practice.<br> If you have problems following your breath, you can count your in-breaths. On each in-breath count, one, then two, then three, all the way to ten. Then start again. If you lose count, simply start again with one.<br> When you conclude your meditation practice, simply take a deep breath and slowly open your eyes. Then gently begin to move. You can stretch if you need to.<br> Begin practicing meditating about 5 minutes a day for a month. Then add 5 minutes a day every month or so as you gain the ability to pay attention to the breath. If you need to do less time, that is fine to. Don’t judge yourself, it is all about self-discovery. Be gently with yourself.<br> Please Share the Podcast<br> <br> <a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Share on Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fmindfulness-guided-meditation%2F&t=Mindfulness%20%13%20A%20Guided%20Meditation%20%13%20007&s=100&p%5Burl%5D=http%3A%2F%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fmindfulness-guided-meditation%2F&p%5Bimages%5D%5B0%5D=http%3A%2F%2Fi0.wp.com%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2016%2F08%2Fmeditation-972472_640.jpg%3Ffit%3D640%252C453&p%5Btitle%5D=Mindfulness%20%13%20A%20Guided%20Meditation%20%13%20007" style="font-size: 0px; width: 48px; height: 48px; margin: 0; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;"></a><a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Share on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fmindfulness-guided-meditation%2F&text=Hey%2C%20check%20this%20podcast" style="font-size: 0px; width: 48px; height: 48px; margin: 0; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;"></a><a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-google_plus nolightbox" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Share on Google+" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fmindfulness-guided-meditation%2F" style="font-size: 0px; width: 48px; height: 48px; margin: 0; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;"></a><a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-reddit nolightbox" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Share on Reddit" href="http://www.reddit.com/submit?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnatureissacred.com%2Fmindfulness-guided-meditation%2F&title=Mindfulness%20%13%20A%20Guided%20Meditation%20%13%20007" style="font-size: 0px; width: 48px; height: 48px; margin: 0; margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;"></a><a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-soc..."></a>
