Today is National Relaxation Day and I’ve got a perfect three-minute meditation for you that will help lower your stress and help you feel more grounded and centered. It can also help to process and release your past and eliminate insecurities.
If you are new to meditation or have found it challenging in the past, give this one a try! You’ll be repeating a very simple mantra while moving your fingers in a specific way. It keeps your mind engaged and makes the time go very quickly.
You can do this sitting in a chair or on the floor—either way, with a straight spine. Crossing your forearms below the wrist and placing them in front of your chest. It does not matter which arm is on top, however your arms should be out and slightly angled up toward the chest. Focusing your eyes at the tip of your nose.
You’ll be making the sounds Sa Ta Na Ma out loud, pressing the corresponding fingers to your thumb with each sound.
Sa – Press thumb and index finger (brings knowledge)
Ta – Press thumb and middle finger (brings wisdom and patience)
Na – Press thumb and ring finger (brings vitality)
Ma – Press thumb and pinkie finger (brings enhanced communication)
You can expand your practice by doing this for 11 minutes and up to 31 minutes.
