Try to meditate every day for at least 10-15 minutes
Meditate in a clean and quiet place that has positive associations for you and choose a seat that is comfortable – it can be a chair or a cushion
Don’t rush straight into the meditation but spend a few moments to relax into a comfortable posture with your back straight but not tense
Always begin by developing a positive wish to benefit yourself and others through your meditation
During the meditation try not to forget the object of meditation – what you should be concentrating on – and if you do forget it bring it back to mind straight away
Before you rise from meditation, mentally dedicate the positive energy you have created to benefiting yourself and others
Throughout the day try to recall the experience of the meditation as often as you can and use it to guide everything you think, say, and do
