Learning Mind
Detoxing the mind is a very important process. It helps to rid the mind, as well as the body of potentially deadly poisons that can bring on bad health and other negative consequences. The awesomeness of meditation is known to quiet down the “monkey mind” and can reduce depression, make mental functioning better, assist stressfulness and anxiety and help your brain to age smartly. This helps to lessen any toxins, which are patterns of random thoughts, or bad emotions that can strongly afflict chemistry.
Getting Comfortable and Breathing
Find a good chair and sit up with your back straight. Make sure that your feet are flat on the floor. They should be up underneath your knees in position.

Take in and notice everything that is in the room where you are. Take one deep breath and permit yourself to feel your feet. Allow yourself to feel everything from the temperature of the room to your feet touching the floor, from the interior of your shoes to beyond. Don’t think about your feet. Just focus on feeling and sensing them only.
Look Over Your Body with Great Attention

Some of the other body parts that you should focus on and sense are your thighs, your bottom against the chair, your abdomen and lower back, your chest area and upper back, shoulders, arms and hands, then next on to your face and head. You should let awareness cover your whole body at the very same time.
