Our minds are sometimes crammed with a stream of ideas, “what do I would like for breakfast?”, “how is it August already?” and so on and so on, and I fear that I’m not doing it proper. However truthfully there’s no proper approach to meditate. It doesn’t need to imply sitting on the ground for 2 hours with calm music and candles. It may be taking a couple of brief breaths and shutting your eyes down whilst you’re on the bus or doing all of your morning skincare. Simply disconnecting from the skin world and focusing in your breath could be so grounding.
