Preparation

Make it a formal practice.

Pick a specific room in your home to meditate - a quiet, comfortable place.

Meditative space must be clutter free.

Read a book (or two) on meditation.

Listen to instructional tapes and CDs.

Make it a habit to get up half an hour earlier to meditate.

Generate moments of awareness during the day.

Meditation

Make sure you will not be disturbed.

Don't keep your mobile phone nearby.

Start with the breath.

Stretch your muscles to feel more comfortably.

Meditate with purpose

Focus your attention to a single point is hard work.

Light a candle and use it as your point of focus.

Notice frustration creep up on you - focus in on your breath and let the frustrated feelings go.

Experiment - try sitting, lying, eyes open, eyes closed, etc.

Take notice of the body when a meditative state starts to take hold.

Once the mind quiets, put all your attention to the feet and then slowly move your way up the body.

No matter what happens during your meditation practice, do not stress about it.

Once your practice is through, spend 2-3 minutes feeling appreciative of the opportunity to practice.
