This is a 12-minute breathing meditation with a focus to lean into science in between a ratio of 4:8 breaths. There is a science as to why it's 12 minutes, there were many studies done recently, please refer to Dr. Amishi P.Jha for all the evidence through her research in her book Peak mind: find your focus, own your attention, invest 12 minutes a day book. I hope you enjoy this meditation and have an open mind when you sit in this meditation, without judgment. Namaste

Hi beautiful people.

Let's do 12 minute meditation with me.

There is actually signs to Y12.

If you're interested you can read the book called Peak Mind.

There has been a lot of studies done and trials that 12 minute is the mark,

So almost like a baseline,

That makes a difference,

That gives you most of the benefits for better focus,

Better concentration and many many other benefits.

Okay so we're going to incorporate the breath in here,

Ratio 4.

8.

Stay with me.

I'm in the natural environment in the woods.

You might hear different sounds.

Please try not to be judgmental and just lean in to the present moment,

Into the silence.

Whatever sounds you hear,

They are of nature.

Allow them and be here with me now.

It's okay to sit down with feet on the floor if you are on a chair.

It's okay to lie down and you can also do this in a traditional pose with cross legs.

Cross legged position,

As long as your chest is upright and your chest is not restricted.

It's a bit relaxed state,

Not too tensed,

Shoulders away from your ears.

You can gaze down or close your eyes,

Entirely up to you.

In fact,

I'm going to give you a little fun factor actually.

The science tells us that if you shut your eyes,

Your eyes will shut down 30% of your brain working,

Which is probably going to bring you more relaxation and more calmness.

So it's entirely up to you how you're going to do this.

Okay take a deep breath in here.

Okay take a deep breath in with me for the count of four.

We're going to stop here.

Allow the breath to return back to normal.

Lean into the silence.

Whatever you hear,

Allow it.

Allow it.

If your mind wanders,

Allow it.

Stay with the silence for one minute.

So so It's okay to be in this moment.

You don't need to do anything.

You're in the right place.

Congratulate yourself for allowing yourself to sit,

Be and for giving yourself permission to this moment.
