Vipassana meditation is a Buddhist way of meditating but it is widely followed by people of all faiths. It involves seeing things as they are or special seeing. Here you don’t focus on a task or image but focus on your inner self in a non-judgemental way.

Vipassana meditation technique to understand its benefits

• Start early in the morning to get calm and tranquillity and devote 10-15 minutes of the day to meditation
• Set your yoga mat in a quieter area like your study or terrace where you can sit in the state of meditation for some time without any distraction
• Sit on the mat with your legs crossed and back straightened. Engage your core and relax your body and mind to dive into the state of meditation
• Close your eyes to connect to your inner self and breathe normally
• Focus only on your natural breath and how you feel while inhaling fresh air
• Be mindful of the natural breathing pattern and observe the thoughts coming to your mind without reacting or judging those thoughts
• Observe the thoughts and the distractions caused by those thoughts. Not attempt to react or control the thoughts to let them subside on their own
• Keep observing the thoughts and return to your normal breathing pattern. Continue the process of meditation for as long as you can
• Experience the state of meditation where you feel light, healthy, and happy. You will experience the draining of stress every time you inhale fresh air and exhale carbon-di-oxide
• Sit for 5-10 minutes in the state of meditation in the beginning and increase the meditation time as you gain experience
