Time: 20 minutes Now you’re getting the hang of it! Start each session with a few deep breaths to center yourself. Then spend a few minutes working with metta. Always start with generating compassion for yourself, then spread that compassion out to the rest of the world. There’s no need to look at your timer, instead when you feel you’ve been doing metta for about five minutes, gently move back to the breath. Breathing in, breathing out, until the timer rings.

Time: 15 minutes You can use the timer on your phone, but don’t forget to turn off notifications so you don’t get distracted. Keep it simple! Start with a quick scan of your entire body and relax each body part as you bring it to mind. Follow your breath as you breathe in and out. When distracting thoughts arise, don’t get discouraged or follow them. Return to the breath. That’s it 👍

Feeling confident and relaxed is the number one goal for your first sit. Let go of any ideas you have about meditation and just accept whatever happens. Find a comfortable way to sit. If you’ve done yoga before, sitting on the floor works. Otherwise try a zafu bench or even a chair with a hard back. Set your timer for 10 minutes—there’s no need to run a marathon for your first sit! Relax your body, scanning each body part. Watch your breathing. Notice each time your breath in and out. That’s it! Of course it won’t be that easy. As soon as you get relaxed a million thoughts of the past and future will come up. Note them merely as thoughts, and don’t get involved in them. They’ll go away soon enough.

A mindfulness practice is a lifelong pursuit. The stronger your mindfulness is, the better your sitting meditation will be. Likewise the stronger your sitting meditation, the easier it is to be mindful.

Metta means compassion and goodwill. Spending a few minutes each sitting developing metta adds balance and energy to your practice. Metta isn’t changing the exterior world, the practice instead affects your relationship to the world. First and foremost you send compassion to yourself. Spend the first few minutes of your sitting practice summoning thoughts of goodwill and compassion. Start with yourself and slowly spread out your metta to everyone. Starting with this session, increase your sitting time to 20 minutes.
