BUT HOW DO YOU DO NOTHING

>>38980136
1. set your phone timer on 10 minutes
2. sit yourself comfortably with a straight back, chair or lotus position doesn't matter
3. lock your eyes on a point in the floor a couple of feet in front of you
4. start the timer
5. proceed to just focus on your breating, the easiest way is to just count your breaths on each exhale. Count to 10 and then start over.
6. increase the time as you get better at focusing

if you find your mind wander, just start focusing and counting again

it's literally that easy and it's awesome
