Top 5 Tips for Daily Meditations

Have you ever wanted to start daily meditations, but just can’t find the time? Daily

meditations are proven to help the body heal both mentally

and physically, so making sure you do them every day is

important.

There are many different types of meditations, although the majority of the focus on a religion or self advancement.

Many people have learned how to use daily meditations to overcome daily stress, and

even illnesses, but it takes a lot of dedication to learn how.

Meditation is not difficult, but it can be hard getting into the

habit of having your meditation time every day,

especially when we have such busy schedules.

Here are the top five tips for getting meditation every day.

Select a Time

It is much easier to get in your daily meditations when you

have a specific period of time every day that you do them.

Many people choose to do their meditations first thing in the morning, while others do

them in the middle of the day.

The time doesn’t make much of a difference as long as you pick out a time that will work

for you almost every day.

Try setting your watch or alarm clock to that time so you

don’t forget to do your daily meditations.

Select a Place

Find a place where you can practice daily meditations in

peace.

A good example would be your bedroom or a private

den.

If it is nice out you can go outside, and you can change

up the place of your meditation every day if you

wish.

However, practicing it in the same spot at the same time every day will develop the

habit faster.

Make sure that your friends and family know that they are not supposed to bother you

when you are practicing your meditation.

Start Making a Routine

Although it’s good to change up some of your meditation

techniques from time to time, you will want to start

developing a routine for your daily meditations.

This will depend a lot on what type of meditation you are

doing.

Religious meditations often start out with prayer, followed by bible reading and another

prayer.

Self advancement meditations are similar, except they usually

start off with breathing exercises and continue with mental imagery and focus.

Develop Focus and Concentration

No matter what kind of daily meditations you do, you will have to develop focus and

concentration.

This means turning off your cell phone and the television.

You can try turning on some quiet soothing music, or search online for some

meditation videos.

These often include ten minute long movies of the

ocean, clouds, or fields.

Start a Journal

Many people find it difficult to keep up daily meditations

because they just don’t see any progress.

Usually progress can be seen within about a month, and

keeping a meditation journal can help you see that progress.

Make sure you write in it either before or after your

meditation every day so you can see the improvement.

Resource Box:

Making a meditation journal is fairly easy.

Use a regular notebook or purchase a diary from your

local general store.

Keep this journal just for your meditation purposes.

Make sure you write down everything about how you are feeling, what is happening in your life, your dreams, and

anything else you want.

Over time you will be able to see how you have started act

differently in response to stress and whatever other

problems you have.

If you keep a meditation journal you have to write

everything you are feeling, so make sure that you keep it in a

place that is safe from other people if you don’t want them

to read it.
