At night, I focus on lowering my heart rate, so I can sleep better. My goal is to increase my deep sleep to around 2 hours and a half. I notice that I have more energy the next day. Which helps me accomplish my goals. In the morning I focus on positivity and shifting my mind-set from catastrophic thinking and dreading going to work to uplifting thinking and excited about the adventures ahead.
Have no clue how to meditate properly. More than thinking about something , I’ll be lost in trying to keep my mind steady
I usually try to focus on my breath. Sometimes I have to literally thing to myself …inhale….exhale…sometimes I just picture a color, usually blue.
When I am meditating, I try to clear my mind of all things and focus on my breath. The guided meditation creates in me a calmness that I am learning to enjoy.
I start always with my breathing then as I continue I transition in to a feild of green lush trees and flowers. But it’s not just a picture; it’s as if my minds eye opens and my true inner self awakens laying under one of the trees and looking up at green leaves with blue sky and sunlight peeking through. The leaves rustle with my breathing like a gentle breeze. This true version of myself is powerful and super confident and sure of herself and most of all she is safe. She stands and walks through the trees into the field of flowers exploring and wandering happily along discovering more of herself as she journeys… it probably doesn’t make sense but it is what I do!
I focus on the words of the guided meditation on the fab app. Some meditations are better for me than others. I find if I start to go to not great places in my mind to stop the meditation and do a different one. Writing in my journal afterwards helps a lot
My breath, where I’m holding tension so I can soften it. I had a prompt to think about acts of kindness that I had received and offered during the day. That’s one I’ll hold on to as wel
I bring my awareness to any discomfort with in my body and inhale drawing the breath to the discomfort, I breath into the brain to relax the mind and to the stomach where our intuition comes from. When I am relaxed and calm I focus on feeling my environment with my body and listening to the rhythm/vibration of life.
Mainly for relaxation and maintaining a calm, methodical state. I usually think of thing for that day i could accomplish. Meditation mainly helps me focus though.
My breathe. I focus on the air getting all the way done to my lower stomach. I focus on the lenght of the breathe so it is as natural as it can be. I also think about how I sit. I don’t want to be tight anywhere in the body or start shaking for clinching somewhere.
