A Simple Meditation To Use Now
Don't think it has to be be difficult. Try this simple method to see the benefits of meditation in minutes.
Get comfortable, close your eyes, and tense up your body. Breath deeply through your nose as you release the tension from every muscle. As you feel each part relaxing, watch for parts that may escape notice, like a tight jaw. If tension remains somewhere, tense up that part again, then let it relax.
Let your breathing fall into a comfortable pattern, and pay attention to it. Be aware of your breath as it passes in and out of your nose. Though your mind will wander endlessly, all you have to do is continually bring attention back to your breath.
Is your mind is still too busy? Try naming the distractions as a way of setting them aside. Try, for example, saying in your mind, "itchy leg," "worried about work," or "anger," and then immediately return attention to your breathing.
Do this meditation for five or ten minutes, or for 100 breaths. When you open your eyes, you'll feel relaxed, and your mind will feel refreshed. You'll be better prepared for any mental challenges. You can start experiencing the benefits of meditation today. Why not try it now?

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it. - Buddha

Although a painful position may actually distract you during your meditation, getting too comfortable is a sure way to fall asleep. Laying down for meditation rarely works because of this. Try to find the right balance between comfort and a position that allows you to remain alert.
