Begin your mindfulness journey by creating a dedicated space where you can practice without interruption. This doesn't need to be an entire room – a corner of your bedroom, a comfortable chair, or even a spot in your garden will do. The key is choosing a location where you feel safe and can minimize external distractions. This space will become your anchor for practice, helping your mind associate it with calmness and presence.

Your breath is the most accessible tool for mindfulness practice. Sit comfortably and focus your attention on the natural rhythm of your breathing. Notice the sensation of air moving through your nostrils, the rise and fall of your chest or belly. Don't try to change your breathing – simply observe it. When your mind wanders (and it will), gently bring your attention back to your breath without judgment.

Body scanning is a powerful technique that helps you develop awareness of physical sensations. Lie down or sit comfortably, then systematically direct your attention from your toes to the top of your head. Notice any tension, comfort, temperature, or other sensations in each area. This practice helps ground you in the present moment and releases physical tension you may not have realized you're holding.
