Was zu verstehen ist

Basic steps for resting attention on the breath without trying to empty the mind.

Breath meditation uses the feeling of inhaling and exhaling as an anchor. You do not need to control or change the breath; simply notice how it is occurring in the body.

So übst du

Choose the clearest sensation, such as air at the nostrils or the rise and fall of the abdomen. Count one to five if useful, then return whenever attention drifts.

Fang klein an, wähle ein passendes Tempo und erlaube dir, morgen wiederzukommen.

  1. Wähle eine kurze Zeitspanne, etwa fünf Minuten.
  2. Werde langsamer, wenn nötig, und nimm wahr, was geschieht.
  3. Schließe mit einer Glocke oder einem bewussten Atemzug.

Ein hilfreicher Hinweis

If breath feels uncomfortable, shift to sound, feet on the floor, or an open-eyed gaze at a fixed point.

Do I need to do it perfectly?

If breath feels uncomfortable, shift to sound, feet on the floor, or an open-eyed gaze at a fixed point. The aim is to notice and return, not to create the same experience every day.
