1 Common methods are: close your eyes, adjust your breathing rhythm, recite simple words or meaningless tones accordingly, or imagine relaxed and happy, experience and hint that your body feels relaxed. The purpose is to change myself from a thinker to an observer of thought, so as to surpass myself and get rid of the confusion and troubles in life. At present, it can also be used as a fragment of psychotherapy.
Meditation is usually continuous meditation 10 minutes to 2 or 3 hours. The first thing to pay attention to is the correct sitting posture. Beginners can sit on the edge of the mat about 8 cm high and concentrate on the place 3 feet away, or just pay attention to the movement of breathing and not think about anything. When you meditate, you should learn to breathe with your abdomen. The abdomen expands when inhaling and contracts when exhaling.
2 basic purpose
Meditation and meditation are similar in that they need a quiet environment, have certain ideas and imagination in their minds as the objects of attention, adopt a passive and natural attitude and adopt a comfortable posture. In English, whether you sit still or think, it is a kind of meditation. But Chinese has different meanings and represents different realms. The goal of meditation is basically the same as meditation, which is to calm our body and mind through practice and achieve a state of no thinking and no self. Reaching that state can be said to be "Samadhi", that is, the highest state of yoga, and it is a state of stagnant and completely static mind.
3 Training effectiveness
Regular meditation can reduce the stress of life, enhance the body's disease resistance and relieve mental stress, and has a good effect on respiratory tract, headache, stomachache, nervous system and other diseases.
4 Preventive measures
There are also exquisite clothes when you meditate. It's best to wear loose shirts and trousers, because any tight clothes will make you feel uncomfortable during meditation. When sitting quietly, relax yourself through self-suggestion. Every time I relax, I fantasize about throwing away my anxiety and uneasiness. After sitting 10 minutes, the body will no longer feel tight and stressed. If you can practice more, after a period of time, you can always keep your head cool, your thinking will be clearer and your analytical ability will be improved.
Meditation is not difficult to learn, but it should be noted that when practicing in non-professional occasions, self-suggestion and others' suggestion may induce some people to have pathological psychological phenomena, commonly known as "possessed" phenomenon. This phenomenon is more likely to occur when there are factors such as personality defects, high expectations for the consequences of training, and greater gang pressure.
