0:00
join me as I challenge myself to master
0:02
a quick meditation routine that busy
0:04
people can actually fit into their day
0:07
fast meditation for busy people on the
0:09
go it sounds like an oxymoron doesn't it
0:12
you're probably thinking wait isn't
0:14
meditation all about sitting still and
0:16
quiet for hours on end well not
0:20
necessarily meditation can be adapted to
0:22
fit even the busiest of schedules and
0:24
that's exactly what we're going to
0:26
explore today you see finding time to
0:29
meditate can be tough especially when
0:31
you're already juggling a million other
0:33
responsibilities between work family and
0:36
social commitments it's easy to put your
0:38
mental Wellness on the back burner but
0:41
the thing is ignoring your mental health
0:43
can lead to increased stress and anxiety
0:46
which can actually decrease your
0:47
productivity and overall quality of life
0:50
it's like that old saying goes you can't
0:52
pour from an empty cup if you're not
0:55
taking care of yourself you're going to
0:56
burn out and that's where the Vicious
1:01
you're busy so you don't have time to
1:03
meditate which means you're more
1:04
stressed which means you're less
1:06
productive which means you're even
1:08
busier and so on and so forth It's A
1:10
Hard cycle to break but it's not
1:13
impossible with just a few minutes of
1:15
meditation each day you can start to
1:17
shift the balance back in your favor I
1:20
know what you're thinking but I don't
1:21
have a few minutes to spare and I get it
1:24
trust me I've been there too but what if
1:27
I told you that you could reap the
1:29
benefits of medit ation in as little as
1:31
60 seconds a day that's right just one
1:34
minute of focused breathing and
1:35
mindfulness can make a world of
1:37
difference in how you feel and function
1:39
so what does this fast meditation look
1:42
like in practice well one technique is
1:45
called the one minute breathing exercise
1:47
all you have to do is sit comfortably
1:49
with your eyes closed breathe in deeply
1:51
through your nose for a count of four
1:53
hold it for a count of four and then
1:55
exhale slowly through your mouth for a
1:57
count of four that's it
2:00
you can do this anywhere anytime on your
2:02
lunch break in between meetings or even
2:05
in the car just not while driving of
2:07
course another technique is the 478
2:10
method this one's a bit more advanced
2:13
but still super easy to learn you
2:16
basically breathe in through your nose
2:17
for a count of four hold it for a count
2:19
of seven and then exhale through your
2:21
mouth for a count of eight this one's
2:24
great for when you're feeling anxious or
2:26
overwhelmed as it helps to calm your
2:28
nervous system a third technique is
2:30
called body scan meditation this one's a
2:33
bit more relaxing as you'll focus on
2:35
releasing physical tension in your body
2:38
you can do this lying down or sitting
2:40
comfortably Just Close Your Eyes take a
2:43
deep breath and start to scan your body
2:45
from head to toe letting go of any areas
2:47
of tension as you go I want to share a
2:50
