Chatterbox: Down to Earth

CBversary coming up!

I searched through the threads of Down To Earth and have confirmed that I joined on July 12, 2021 and it's July 10th right now so the CBversary's coming up! To celebrate I will give meditation tips to help keep the CB calm as well as do written picturings.

Tip #1: Don't feel like you have to follow "traditional" meditation that involves crossing your legs on the floor, keeping your back straight, etc. because it is not required! Do any posture that is comfortable for you.

Tip #2: Talk to yourself. If you are stressed about anything, talk to your inner friend and listen to his/her/their/xyr/other possesive pronouns answers. Don't feel like you have to ask or answer in poetic language, that ruins the point of it.

Tip #3: Meditate. If talking with your inner friend doesn't work or the inner friend is not available, sit down, or lie down, or sit/lie down, or whatever position is most comfortable. Then breath in, 1, 2, 3, 4, then hold it, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, then breath out, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. That's called 4-7-8 breathing.
