Candle Gazing Meditation For Focus, Stillness, And Calm

Most meditation is done with your eyes closed, focusing attention inward. In this practice, we will keep our eyes open and focus our awareness on the flame of a candle. I will guide you to light a candle and place it at about eye level, where you can carefully place your focus upon the dancing flame.
Because this meditation is done with the eyes open, it’s a great option for people who have trouble containing their wandering mind. By concentrating on a physical object, it can be easier to focus.
