It is easy to do, just find a calm place, sit down comfortably with your eyes open, gently look at a particular point in the room or outside. Ensure that you avoid stressing the eyes by staring. Putting a candle in front of you would be preferable, concentrate on any one deep thought and maintain peace. You can sit as long as you want to and you can also play some slow music in the background. Make sure your thoughts are slow and deep and you breathe naturally.
