When doing meditation, the key thing is about your breathing technique.

Take slow, calming deep breaths and think about nothing else but focus on breathing.

It will be good to listen to nature's sounds, eg like water flowing, birds chirping, jungle sounds. It helps calm you down.

Breathing technique is not only important during meditation, but when breathing in general. Most people breathe incorrectly without being aware of it, allowing the air to inflate only the upper part of the chest and lungs.

To get the greatest benefit from every breath of air requires using what the Yogis refer to as "The Complete Breath" - drawing air deep into the lower portion of the lungs. This extends the rib cage, depresses the diaphragm and fills the entire lung space, delivering the greatest quantity of oxygen for continued vitality.

Totally true, Hermas.

You can reduce your stress without having to meditate, by just breathing correctly.

Breathing is very important.

Considering that breathing is something we do 24/7 to keep us alive, breathing exercises can strengthen the muscles we use to breathe and allow us to get the most bang for our breath.


Breathing exercises can increase the strength of the muscles used in respiration.

Proper breathing from your belly, or diaphragm, is very beneficial for your health and well-being. This brings more blood and lymph into the chest and to the heart. Lymph contains immune cells. More lymph and oxygen-rich blood being circulated throughout the body will reduce the chances of lung infections, improve athletic endurance and create a feeling of relaxation and well-being.

Basically, feel the relaxing effect of breathing when meditating.
