Breath in  -  with as much consciousness present as you can

Breath out - with as much consciousness present as you can

and while you breath out - let go of any stress, feelings, thoughts, tension...just let go

Suggestions and ideas of fellow meditators

I stretch my body and jawn really deeply and it helps me to get the most out of the minute of meditating. Claus P. Nürnberg, Germany

I like to write down what I feel, think of and what I see is happening with my interactions with people. I take my journal with all my notes then home and contemplate them in the evening as a completion of the day just before I go to bed. Then I set my intention for the next day in my heart. I love how it keeps me on my toes and I feel I am truly growing from this. Karen B. Adelaide, Australia

I am a teacher and I do it 3 times a day with the kids in my class. They love it and it is so easy to do as it is only one minute. Afterwards 3 of my pupils share what they got in their meditation and I am always amazed how much awareness is being shared in these moments. I can feel the whole class room has calmed and moved into more focus from doing these one minute meditations. Darren A. Atlanta, USA

At work I have hung up a sign saying: "Sometimes it only takes a minute...". My collegues are asking about what this means and I share with them the One Minute Meditation. 9 out of 10 say they want to try it also. I believe it is changing our office. Soon I want to introduce to the office that we start our meetings with just taking one minute to focus like that. I hope they say yes. Caroline G. San Rafael, USA
