  1. GETTING STARTED WITH MEDITATION - MINDFULNESS TRAINING IN NEWCASTLE https://newcastlepsychologist.co.uk/

  2. Mindfulness is practised by many people around the world, and it’s aim is to improve quality of life by helping manage the stress and anxiety associated with thoughts of both past and future. Mindfulness is a form of meditation practise, and like other forms of meditation it has positive effects on the body as well as the mind. Mindfulness meditation can reduce the likelihood of suffering from heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, and many other physical problems, as well as being helpful in depression, anxiety, trauma, and anger management.

  3. Mindfulness meditation is easy to practise on your own, although as you become more advanced and wish to deepen your understanding, you may look at attending Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling’s mindfulness training in Newcastle. Mindfulness training is available in one-to-one and small group classes and can support you in helping to achieve your long-term meditation goals.

  4. SOME MINDFULNESS MEDITATION TIPS TO GET YOU STARTED

  5. CHOOSE A QUIET AND COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT Mindfulness meditation can be done anywhere comfortable, and in any position (lying down, kneeling, sitting, and even standing). It is important to keep your back straight throughout (not stiff) and to find a position that doesn’t cause pain. Also, keep your neck and head in a comfortable position. It is a good idea to wear comfortable clothes and to be in a place with a comfortable temperature whilst practising meditation.

  6. CLOSE YOUR EYES AND BREATHE NORMALLY Many types of meditation focus on breathing exercises as a form of focus, although for mindfulness this is not necessary. Breathing normally is usually best to begin with, and following the flow of your breath as it enters and leaves your body.

  7. ALLOW THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS TO COME AND GO During mindfulness it is important that you are not trying hard to empty your mind. Thoughts and feelings will come and go, and it isimportant to notice when you become distracted, and bring yourself back to your chosen focus (whether the breath, sounds, or physical sensations). If you need something to help you focus, pay attention to your breath or another type of background noise.

  8. HOLD THIS STATE FOR AS LONG AS YOU CHOOSE Once you have achieved the first steps, make sure you continue this meditation for a couple of minutes. Many people recommend 10-20 minutes a day though any practice is better than no practice. The longer you can practice, the more insight you will develop and the better you will feel after completion.
