Simple Meditation Guide
Allow 15-30 minutes for this meditation practise
Over the years, I’ve explored many meditation techniques — some beautifully intricate, others deeply demanding. While each had its value, I found that with the rhythms and responsibilities of daily life, sustaining such elaborate practices became almost impossible.
What remained was a question: how do we stay connected without needing to step away from life? This is how this simple meditation practice was born. It is gentle, accessible, and real. A way to tune in without having to withdraw into silence or create the “perfect” conditions. I use the same practice throughout my day — in moments between tasks, during pauses, or whenever I feel the need to return to myself.
It isn’t about escaping the world. It’s about meeting it with presence.
There’s a common misconception that meditation means forcing the mind to become silent. But what if the thoughts don’t stop? The truth is, they quieten naturally when we stop gripping them and stop identifying with the thinking mind as “me” or “mine.”
Instead of trying to control anything, simply shift into being the witness. Notice your thoughts the way you’d watch clouds drift across the sky—appearing, dissolving, coming, going. They’re movements. They’re temporary. And you are the one who notices them.
So what do you focus on if not the thoughts? Turn your attention toward the subtle field of stillness that’s always present beneath everything. Let your body soften completely. Close your eyes. In the darkness behind your eyelids, observe the tiny flickers and movements of light. Just rest in that witnessing presence.
Nothing to change. Nothing to fix. If thoughts come, let them. Welcome everything. You’re not trying to stop the mind—you’re simply letting it unwind. Often the mind is processing the day, and that’s perfectly natural. Don't forget to breathe in, breath out. You can make it your focus during the meditation, and after a while you will experience shift in your consciousness. Your body will relax, your mind will become quiet.
