I try not to fuss about it, so allowing myself even 5 minutes of mindful breathing is alot helpful!
Ooh and I like listening to chants, flute music, rain sounds etc while engaging in some "close my eyes and do mindful listening" hehe. I find that quite peaceful!
How about you?💛
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou

.. breathing exercises is what gives more relief during anxiety
... Tibetan bell music

@mysteriousfriend1321
Hahaha 12 minutes is great, so long we try and can feel the peace still, it counts. 🥰
Those are some very peaceful sounds, Tibetan bells music specially!😇
Celebrating meditation is such a well-deserved recognition to this wonderful practice!
Thank you, my mysterious friend, for such a significant post!
Let’s celebrate meditation, wooohooo!
Answering your questions, I meditate sitting on a cushion on the floor and focusing on my breath.
I have been meditating for many years, and it has become something good in itself, beyond its healing effects. I need to be in that wonderful state every day, at least for a while. My view of things has been deeply influenced by meditation.
This is my setup for meditating: a zafu, a zabuton, and some cardboard sheets I use to make an enclosure, a humble “meditation hall” that hides the distracting clutter behind.
I share two YT videos I have found very useful (particularly the first one) to gradually learn to take the full lotus posture, which in my experience is the most stable for meditation:

"Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your meditation practice with us! ❤It's wonderful to hear how meditation has become such a meaningful part of your daily routine. Your setup with the zafu and zabuton sounds like the perfect environment for a focused and peaceful practice. I love how you’ve created your own 'meditation hall' with the cardboard sheets to keep distractions at bay—such a creative and practical approach!
The lotus posture is indeed one of the most stable and grounding positions for meditation. I’m excited to check out the videos you shared on developing flexibility and taking the posture. They will be really helpful as I continue to explore different meditation techniques. Thanks again for your valuable insights!"
And honestly I conclude one important thing in ur reply ... is that .. meditation gives much clarity of what we're thinking and processing .. the more calm we get .. the more thoughtful we become in day to day life and it entirely changes the way we approach the incidents in life in a easy manner ( if we're consistent in practicing it )
And obviously it's a wonderful experience to have atleast once a day 🍀
Thank you for your thoughtful, reassuring, encouraging and wise reply!
We agree on everything 100%
We agree on things that are very important to us
I look forward to crossing paths again with you somewhere in Cups!
