Meditation: Getting Started

This short practice is not about stopping your thoughts or forcing yourself to feel calm. It is simply a way to notice what is happening inside you, with a little more clarity.

Before you begin

• Find a place where you can sit comfortably for about 10 minutes.
• There is no need to make your mind blank.
• If your attention wanders, simply notice it and come back.
• Nothing needs to be fixed during the practice.

After the practice

Take a few seconds and ask yourself: “What is happening inside me right now?”

You do not need a perfect answer. In the WhatsApp group, you can simply share one sentence beginning with:

If meditation makes you feel significantly more distressed or uncomfortable, stop the practice and return to a normal activity. The goal here is gentle observation, not forcing an experience.
