Meditation On The Go

You can use meditation techniques wherever you are, including the shower, said corporate meditation coach Mark Thornton.

Start by noticing sensations — Listen to the sound of the water, notice the fragrances of soaps and shampoos. How do your shoulders, neck, legs and arms feel as you bathe them? Then, try to "widen your attention" and to experience all the sensations at once.

Take a mind timeout — Make a conscious decision to take a complete break from your mind. If you're bombarded by thoughts, choose to return to them later.

Try tai chi showering — Move your body in slow motion and notice the sensations. Take a moment to be still, close your eyes and notice how the body responds.

Sing — Notice the vibration in your throat, chest and other body parts.
