MM 18 Meditation: Mindful Challenge Meditation #4 {Mindful Focus Meditation (Hand Concentration)}

Summary: Welcome to the 21 Day Mindfulness Challenge!! This is a time to push yourself, become open to change and see the transformation unfold. Every day there will be a new challenge, a description of the challenge and some tips and action steps. The daily challenges will build on each other and will gradually become more challenging. It is important not to skip a day so that you do not miss any necessary skills needed for future challenges. Mindful Hand Meditation Preparation: Sit or lie in a comfortable position. Set a timer for 5-10 minutes. Take 5 slow, deep, calming breaths to get you into your meditative state. Hand Focus This will be the first meditation that focuses on “being” without concentrating on different stimuli. During this, you will only focus on your hands. Begin by paying attention to the positioning of your hands and each one of your fingers. Note the temperature of each individual finger. Focus on the weight of your hands against the surface they are lying on. If there is anything covering them or touching them, notice that sensation. Now allow yourself to just be still. When you notice your thoughts start to drift, always bring your attention back to your hands. You do not have to focus on them the entire time, but they will help you be mindful as your mind tries to take over the mediation.
