Meditation Challenge: Day 1 What is Meditation?

Namaste and welcome to this meditation challenge.
I am honored you decided to join me on this journey.

What is meditation?

Meditation is being with what is. We can put that definition into practice by:
Meeting ourselves where we are, right here and now
and by,
Meeting ourselves just as we are
In other words, there is no need to add commentary to whatever you are experiencing.

Keep it Simple

Find a good spot where you can make yourself really comfortable. It is best if you minimize distractions and interruptions.
Pick a time where you can give yourself your undivided attention for 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 1 Relax

Getting good at relaxing is essential to meditation. Otherwise, all you will notice is how tense you are.
Make things easier for yourself by letting go of your expectations. Expectations are old thoughts in your mind about what should happen. Instead awake to the freshness and uniqueness of this day.

If you would like to start with a little bit of movement to relax more easily , you may want to try:
