The 3 minute short meditations It still works

• Daily meditation is great for your body and your
  mind. Meditation can relieve body and spirit.
  Its a time out from the anxieties of daily
  living and can help you feel more focused. One of
  the best things about meditation is that it can
  be enjoyed by all. Setting aside as little as 3
  minutes a day can help you stay calm when
  everyone around you is losing it. Thats why Lama
  Surya Das created a 3 minute short meditation
  course. If you desire to relax deeper than you
  ever have, then try the 3 Minute Meditations. In
  just 3 minutes a day you can relax your way to a
  better lifestyle. Theyre perfect to practice
  while you are waiting on your cup of tea to steep
  or for the water to boil. Try it out, begin today.

Here are tips from Lama Surya Das book Buddha
Standard Time and how I have adopted these in my
full and busy life to short meditations. Life is
a moving meditation Ive started trying to sneak
in short 3 minute meditation through a given day.
Waiting in the grocery line, getting tea,
brushing my teeth, sitting idle at a stop light
have been transmuted from impatient
inconveniences to meditative moments. While my
daily meditation may not be the traditional 20
minutes in a meditation chair, I get seven 3
minute meditations and more presence throughout
my day. Increase the hours in the day through
meditation During the times throughout my life
when I feel overwhelmed and stressed out my mind
replays a time scarcity message over and over
again, I dont have enough time in the day to
get all that I have to complete. Lama Surya Das
recommends that stress periods in our lives are
the perfect time to meditate as it results in
expanding time. While counter intuitive, my
higher Self recognized the wisdom in his words.

My own experience approves that when I am ready
to wrestle control from my brain and meditate it
results in a more resourceful, clear thinking,
and quiet form of me and time grows as promised.
As a result, my clear presence allows me to
manage my time more effectively. Synchronize
your life to the world around you I have
generally experienced and believed in change from
the inside out. However, Ive learned to
appreciate and get curious about the unseen
effect on natural changes on my inner condition
of being. Living from the outside in. This year I
have slowed down and become more present to
nature and the changes at a small scale
(occasional changes) and full scale changes
(planetary orbits). Effortlessness, enchantment,
and meaning have been my gift as I have danced
with the flow of life versus battling against
it. Meditation calms the mind in order to
decrease stress and find inner peace and balance.
A daily three-minute meditation is a time
efficient and effective way to increase back your
inner peace. The advantages are more prominent
than you may expect.
