Evidence signifies that the first meditative practices were performed during the Vedic Age (1500 BC to 600 BC) in ancient India.

Our self-narratives can often invade our minds with negativity, such as self-doubt, self-absorption, and self-judgment.<\/p>\n

Reminding yourself that these thoughts don\u2019t define you, and are simply a passing mental phenomena can help you direct your thoughts on what matters, and empower you to create a constructive mental environment.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”47848″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/tab][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Time

You should never rush your mindfulness practice, but it also doesn\u2019t take much time to make a meaningful impact on your wellness. This means you can practice mindfulness for just a few minutes each day without disrupting your routine.<\/p>\n

We recommend you choose a time that\u2019s convenient for you, such as in the morning, at lunchtime, or before bedtime. If you\u2019re forgetful, you can set a daily alarm to remind you. As you grow more comfortable when pausing to practice mindfulness, you can begin to gradually allow more time for it in your daily life.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”42959″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/tab][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Distractions” id=”1773161708790-8″ tab_id=”1773161708791-9″][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding_phone=”60″ text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default” offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_color=”#cc5614″ font_size_desktop=”36px” font_line_height=”104%” font_size_tablet=”26″ font_size_phone=”24″ class_name=”body-36 font-dm-serif-text margin-bottom-15″]Distractions[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_responsive_text inherited_font_style=”default” text_color=”#545454″ font_size_desktop=”20px” font_line_height=”150%” font_size_tablet=”18″ font_size_phone=”16″ class_name=”body-20″]There are many kinds of distractions that can divert your attention from your mindfulness practice. Key examples of common distractions include technology, people, and even hunger.<\/p>\n

Ensuring you turn off your technology and keep it out of sight during your mindfulness exercise will allow you to fully focus on yourself, without the worry of a phone call or text disturbing you.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also worth finding a meditation space away from your friends and family to ensure no one disrupts your practice. Alternatively, you can clearly communicate that you are engaging in mindful practice and wish to be alone and undisturbed for the duration.<\/p>\n

Hunger is another common distraction. When you\u2019re hungry, your mind will naturally beeline on food, resulting in no room for mindful thoughts. Ensuring you regularly nourish your body with food will prevent this distraction, enabling you to focus on your emotional, physical, and mental wellness.[\/nectar_responsive_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all”
