How do you react to stillness? Do you dread it because busyness is your middle name? Or do you embrace it in the garb of laziness? Or do you find it comes naturally to you?
Being still is an art. And like every other art form, it take practise. Hours and hours of practise to be able to master it.
So start small, and not be meditating with your mind. First meditate with your body. Keep your focus undiverted at the task at hand and stay at it without itching to pick up the next task or the next thought.
It would be discomforting to begin with. Staying calm and undisturbed doesn’t come easy. Fleeting thoughts, feelings and to-do list float around you. You swim in the sea of constant chaos. So find your comfort in this discomfort.
Once you master your concentration skills, start lengthening the same and put it to work while doing nothing. Or simply put meditate for a brief period. Anxiety comes natural to us humans. Choose stillness over it, start small but start today.
