You don't need to sit cross-legged on a fancy cushion, chanting, and pinging a singing bowl while meditating for an hour.
If you're just starting out meditating, keep it simple
Start today. Start now.
Here are the steps
Take a seat. Any seat; I don't care if you're in a chair or even laying in bed.
Close your eyes
Go within; what do you feel? What do you hear? Take a few seconds to center.
Take one deep, long, slow breath in through your nose.
Give one deep, long, slow exhale out through your mouth.
Repeat steps 4 & 5 two more times.
Go within again. How do you feel now? Are you done, or do you want to keep going?
The choice is yours.
