This remarkably easy and relaxing meditation makes use of a little-known secret about the eyes. Allowing the eyes to rest in a soft downward gaze has an instant, automatic relaxing effect.
Benefits of this meditation:
Relaxation & stress reduction
Can be used for an effective 2 minute relax & recharge break
Increased alertness
Steps of Relaxation Meditation
Sit comfortably with your spine reasonably straight.
Allow your eyes to rest comfortably downward, gazing softly, but not focused on anything.
Without closing your eyes completely, let your eyelids drop to a level that feels most comfortable
Continue gazing downward... the act of gazing is your primary focus (rather than the area at which you are gazing). You may notice your breathing becoming more rhythmic.
It's ok to let your attention drift a bit. If your eyes become very heavy, it's ok to let them close. If you notice you've come out of your relaxed space, simply bring your attention back to your relaxed downward gaze.
