I think out loud! I ask myself what are the benifits not the negativity. Is this going to be a challenge or a change for me.š±
Truth is I have a hard time doing that. I just keep telling myself to give myself the gift of solid meditation and that I will get something from it.
Close my eyes, take a deep breath in. Hold for a moment, before exhaling. Clear my mind
I remember to concentrate on my breath and let the distracting thoughts go in order to think about breathing in, breathing out. Counting my breaths helps a lot. I use a meditation app called Calm. It has great lessons and during a session, it reminds you to focus on the breath an let your other thoughts go.
Have a pre-established scene or location in your mind that you can always be yourself back to (in your head, of course š) when your thoughts start scrambling about and you need to re-focus.
