Five quiet minutes
A short sit for when you only have a few minutes.
Five quiet minutes
Find somewhere comfortable. You can stop whenever you like.
What you'll be doing
- Sit in a way that feels steady, and let your eyes close or rest on one spot.
- Notice three sounds. Near ones, far ones, whatever is there.
- Feel your feet on the floor and the weight of your body in the seat.
- Let your breath do its own thing. You don't need to change it.
- If your mind wanders, that's normal. Just come back to your breath.
- Take three slow breaths, then open your eyes when you're ready.
