With practice the gaps between your brain wandering will reduce.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Melvin J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Try to pay attention to ur breathing. For example,  breathe in ur nose for 4 seconds and out ur mouth for 6 seconds. When those loud thoughts come into ur mind, keep bringing ur thoughts back to ur breathing to quiet them<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Olena O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">In every meditation there are words:&quot;just gentle notice it, without judgement&quot;. Just with practice. Your mind could wander, but you should gentle notice it and return to your meditation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Erstename S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">The first, and most important thing to remember when trying to meditate or quiet the mind is this: the more you actively attempt to quiet your mind, the harder it will be to quiet your mind. So, the trick is simply to observe your thoughts, and not interact with them. This is quite difficult sometimes, because we are so used to thinking, but eventually, with time and practice, your mind will quieten and you&#39;ll be at peace, mentally.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nadine I.
