Yoga spiritual practice meditation freely while waiting

"The body is not close, but the heart is far away." Whenever a mature female voice with a little laziness rings on the Travel TV station, my heart will feel relieved and peaceful. Living in tense, noisy, and even smoky cities, we don't know when, tranquility has become a luxury, rare and hard-won.

In contrast, irritable and uneasy emotions are increasingly becoming frequent visitors in life. What do you think is the most annoying moment in life? My answer is-wait. In my life, the most annoying time is waiting. Waiting for a bus, waiting for someone, waiting for test results, waiting for the weekend to come... Especially in the face of major results, or when I am eager to get to a certain place, waiting has become the most painful torture, making me uneasy.

But should we let this anxious emotion affect our mood and even let it spread to our attitude towards getting along with the people around us? Of course not. So if you are also suffering from the anxiety of waiting, please practice yoga meditation with me.

First of all, close your eyes and silently say to yourself in your heart: "Next, I want to enter a peaceful world, a world away from the hustle and bustle." Repeat this several times until your impetuous mind gradually calms down.

Then, imagine some natural scenes that make you feel happy. For example, stars, waterfalls, dense virgin forests or romantic beaches. In short, you must have a conscious consciousness to take yourself wherever you want to go through your imagination, and think as carefully as possible.

In fact, meditation is a very important part of yoga practice. The usual yoga practice sequence is warm-up, yoga asana, and then meditation and relaxation. It can be said that meditation is a sublimated part of yoga practice. After the body has been stretched and repaired by asana, meditation allows our mind and spirit to reach the same harmonious and relaxed state as the body, while releasing pressure and tension.

It is best to choose a quiet and ventilated environment for ordinary meditation, so that your subconscious mind can easily be mobilized and follow the trajectory guided by consciousness.

However, when you are in a noisy and uncomfortable environment, you can also use meditation to restore calm. In this case, meditation may not achieve the same effect as sublimate the body and mind, but at least it can eliminate external interference and mobilize the pleasant memories and feelings stored in meditation during your days of tranquility.

I often do this meditation while waiting for the bus. It feels like I have a video recorder in my heart, playing back pictures that make me feel relaxed and happy. When you see beautiful clouds on the road, you will enjoy the sky and rainbows after the rain, try your best to remember, and "replay" the beautiful moment when you meditate. Sometimes, I can't help but laugh at myself, like a fool who daydreams all day long. But what's the difference? When everyone around you is controlled by irritable emotions and only you are full of heart and calm down, aren't you a beautiful scenery decorated in the memories of others?
