This story was written with the assistance of an AI writing program.
Does it feel like without doing much work, you feel exhausted because of your uncontrolled thought process?
Well, I have a solution to this problem. Meditation.
Meditation word sounds heavy and makes you feel uncomfortable if you have not tasted its magic yet.
But don’t worry I will give you the easiest meditation method that you can start practicing today or even just after reading this story. It is called Neutral observer meditation. And alternatively called mindfulness practice.
You can see the candid version of this story here in this video:
In neutral observer meditation, one has to observe own thoughts and emotions without judgment or attachment to them. You have to cultivate a sense of detachment from the constant stream of thoughts that flow through your mind. This can help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your inner workings.
Steps To Do Neutral Observer Meditation (Mindfulness Meditation)!
To begin a neutral observer meditation, find a quiet and comfortable space where you can sit or lie down without distractions.
Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to center yourself and bring your focus inward.
As you settle into a relaxed state, begin to observe your thoughts as they arise.
It is important to note that, in this meditation, instead of getting caught up in the content of your thoughts or trying to control them, simply notice them as they come and go.
Imagine yourself as a neutral observer, watching the thoughts pass by like clouds in the sky. Allow yourself to detach from any emotional reactions or judgments that may arise, and simply observe with curiosity and openness.
It is also important to remember that neutral observer meditation is not about suppressing or avoiding thoughts and emotions, but rather about developing a healthy relationship with them.
By acknowledging and accepting all aspects of your inner experience, you can cultivate a sense of peace and serenity that surpasses the ups and downs of daily life.
Why is this the easiest mediation?
I find this as easiest meditation as our mind is always involved in the thinking process. This meditation doesn’t want you to stop thinking but only wants you to become the observer of your thoughts.
Benefits of Mindfulness Meditation:
As you continue to practice neutral observer meditation, you may notice patterns or themes in your thoughts that reveal deeper insights into your beliefs, fears, and desires.
By maintaining a sense of detachment and non-attachment, you can gain a greater sense of self-awareness and clarity.
Incorporating neutral observer meditation into your daily routine can have profound effects on your mental and emotional well-being.
By learning to observe your thoughts and emotions with compassion and non-judgment, you can cultivate a sense of inner peace and resilience that can help you navigate life’s challenges with grace and ease.
So take some time each day to sit quietly and practice neutral observer meditation. You can start doing it for 5 minutes, and then gradually increase the time.
You may find the initial days challenging to detach from your thoughts and may catch yourself engaging in your thought process. But as soon as you catch yourself engaging with your thoughts, bring your focus back to observing your thoughts instead of engaging with them. Slowly you become acquainted with the process and it becomes easier to do this mediation for a longer time.
Allow yourself to become the witness to your inner world, and see how this simple practice can transform your relationship with yourself and the world around you.
