Timing:
Don't meditate on a full Stomach.The best time to do this exercise is in the mornings and evenings before meals.
The place:
Find a comfortable, darkened room where you will not be distrubed.
The position
Sit down on the ground on a firm cushion - in the lotus position if you can, otherwise cross-legged. If this is uncomfortabnle, you can sit on a stool. Do not lie down, since you must not fall asleep during breathing exercises
Breathe:
Close your eyes before beginning meditation, and breathe deeply in and out, using your stomach
The Mantra:
Try to regulate your breathing using a mantra - a simple word or short phrase. When yhou inhale, think of a syllable "Aum" and when exhaling, of the syllabnle "Ah".
