Have you ever see a little baby breathing while sleeping. When he inhales the breath his belly size increases. When he exhales the breath his belly starts decreasing. This is the pure form of breathing for meditation.

In the beginning, meditation feels difficult to focus. Your mind starts wandering around your past mistakes or future goals. To get success in the meditation, the key is to be persistent and keep going on.
After focusing on the meditation for few days you will feel comfortable with this process. You will get maximum out and will increase the time duration of the meditation.

A person who performs meditation and takes breaks from it can not attain greater results. Find few minutes a day at the start but do not skip it just because of laziness. This persistence will change your life with the help of meditation.
Don’t worry about doing wrong practice
As a beginner, you just need to know that you don’t have to worry about the things that you can’t control especially your thoughts. As a new meditator, people think they have to stop thinking and have to clear their minds immediately.
Keep in mind everyone has to start from zero. No one comes with perfection. Accept your imperfection and keep moving.
Check-in with your friends
Sometimes a single person can not maintain his routine or stick to a single practice. Add your friends to your meditation practices. It will help you to maintain the routine for the long term.
Your meditation partner will help you to keep moving on and your practice. People with the help of their spouse, siblings, or kids can perform this exercise for the long term.
Be Kind with Yourself

But keep in your mind that you have to focus on your destiny not only on the journey. There will be some ups and downs in the path of successful meditation practices.
Try to feel love around yourself. Try to start a conversation with yourself. Try to become a friend of yourself. This will not only help you in meditation but it will help you throughout your life.
Be a self Motivator
People face issues after starting meditation. Getting a quick result should not be the ultimate goal for meditation. Set a clear goal to have a mindful life and a clear thought process. This will remind you to move on when you will feel exhausted.
