How to Breathe Properly during Meditation

By The Pioneer of Subliminal Messages Online.

Just how important breathing is during meditation? Very. One of the main advantages of proper breathing is getting your entire body and mind fully relaxed. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to keep a clear mind. You will immediately be bothered by the noises around you or even the worries and uncertainties clouding your mind.

Proper breathing during meditation, interestingly, requires a lot of practice. It’s not simple as keeping the air in and out of the body. It also needs awareness to what you’re doing. This is how you bring yourself to the present moment and place all causes of your anxieties to the past or the future.

Tips

1. Wear something comfortable. When you want to practice meditation, make sure you’re comfortable with everything, even with the clothes that you wear. These little details have the ability to distract you from what you’re doing. If you’re a beginner, this is going to be such a huge hurdle.

2. Find a quiet spot. It doesn’t matter if it’s in your home, office, or any public place. Meditation can happen anywhere, as long as it’s tranquil or peaceful. The calmness of the surroundings can speed up the attainment of peace inside your mind. You may also want to pick the best time to meditate. Again, the key here is silence.

3. Cross your legs and sit up straight. It’s essential that you are in a correct sitting position. The back should not be slouching but aligned or straight. You can feel your spine for that. By doing so, you prevent any obstruction of air that flows in and out your body during breathing.

4. Start to breathe in and out. There’s no definite number of times when you should breathe in and out during meditation. This process should be as natural as possible. You can breathe through your mouth, but you’re encouraged to do so through your nostrils. You can also keep your eyes closed. This way, you can greatly reduce the chances of getting distracted. This will also allow you to give your full concentration to your breathe.

When breathing, do so deeply and slowly. Again, you don’t have to count but to simply be very aware of the air movement from and to your body. You will notice that breathing creates some vibrations, which will then be the main focus of your meditation.

You may also want to feel the movements of the diaphragm and the lungs.

5. Listen to some subliminal messages. Since your mind is in its relaxed state during meditation, this becomes the best method to put in subliminal messages into your subconscious. These messages are often used to modify certain negative perceptions about your personal issues and about your life, thereby allowing you to overcome certain challenges. The subliminal messages are usually given in the form of affirmations.

You can prepare the subliminal messages before meditation. You may also use the prepared ones, transforming them into mp3s, so you can just listen to them while you’re meditating.
