A
Hello,
I'm,
Chris,
Becker
and
I
lead
a
mindfulness
meditation
class
at
the
Senior
Center
in
Mountain
View
California,
and
this
is
a
very
short
video
about
mindfulness
meditation
in
a
comfortable
chair.
Let
me
see
if
I
can
get
back
here.
You
can
see
me
a
little
bit
better
I'm
sitting
up
in
a
chair,
you're
outside,
of
course
you
can
be
inside
and
we
sit
with
good
posture.
You
have
to
sit
super
straight
but
relaxed.
You
can
lean
back
in
your
chair.
A
If
that's
comfortable
or
sit
up
straight
in
you
don't
want
to
be
really
reclining,
though.
That's
not
that's,
not
a
good
thing.
We
want
to
be
alert,
so
we
want
to
sit
up.
We
say
proudly,
let's
sit
proudly
with
good
posture.
Generally,
we
close
our
eyes
to
get
started.
I
might
keep
mine
open
for
the
purposes
of
the
video,
but
look
close
our
eyes,
and
then
we
don't
have
to
start
right
away.
We
can
take
a
little
time
to
get
set.
A
A
Couple
of
those
take
our
time
and
we're
gonna
be
really
nice
to
ourselves
here
and
that's
that's
kind
of
what
we're
gonna
do
so
then
we'll
have
our
eyes
closed,
get
settled.
Our
hands
can
be,
however,
is
comfortable,
and
you
could
put
them
on
your
lap
and
hold
on
more
on
your
on
the
thighs
or
wherever
it's
comfortable
and
I'll
close,
go
ahead
and
close
my
eyes
and
we're
gonna
know
to
breathe
through
our
nose
we're
gonna
gently
breathe
through
our
nose
with
a
normal
breath.
We
don't
we're,
not
gonna,
try
to
regulate
our
breath.
A
Lips
and
mouth
jaws
gently
closed
tongue
at
the
roof
of
our
mouth,
just
relaxing
and
then
we're
gonna
use
our
breath
as
a
focus
point
for
our
meditation.
So
we
call
diaphragm
breathing,
you
know
through
the
belly,
not
not
just
breathing
but
diaphragm
breathing
through
the
belly.
Just
feel
pay
attention
that
feeling
of
your
your
abdomen,
your
tummy,
slowly
going
out
and
in
as
you
as
you
breathe,
just
bring
your
attention
there
and
let
it
let
it
stay
there
that
that
gentle
breath
natural
breath.
A
A
I'll
just
do
it
as
long
as
it
feels
good,
not
worry
about
the
clock
anyway,
you
want
just
try
to
set
some
time
more
than
just
a
few
seconds,
so
we
can
kind
of
take
time
to
get
into
this,
and
so
when
we
meditate
and
focus
on
our
breathing
for
just
about
everybody,
what
happens
is
after
a
little
while
our
mind
starts
to
wander
away.
We
start
to
think
about
how
it
could
be
a
little
thing
about
I've
got
to
buy
the
bread
at
the
store
or
my
my
mother
is
very
sick
with
cancer.
A
How
do
I
pay
that
mortgage?
It
could
be
all
kinds
of
things
and
that's:
okay,
that's
normal!
When
we,
when
we
realize
oh
I'm
thinking
about
the
shopping
list
there,
oh
just
say
to
yourself:
that's
what
I
am
I'm
doing,
I'm
thinking
about
the
shopping
list
now
I'm
gonna
come
back
to
my
breasts.
I'm
gonna
take
my
time.
Just
gently
come
back
to
my
breath
and
that
mind-wandering
some
people
talk
about
monkey
line
because
we
like
to
go
away
and
visit
Paris
or
know
what
we
should
have
said
to
that
neighbor.
A
Who
was
rude
to
us
whatever
is,
but
when
we
realize
that
that's
where
we
are,
and
we
just
just
go,
that's
where
that's
where
I
am
now
I'm
gonna
come
back
to
my
breathing
to
my
breath
and
relax
and
be
comfortable.
It's
a
time
for
us
to
be
quiet.
The
mindfulness
meditation.
It's
our
opportunity
to
be
quiet.
You
know
very
common
question
people
ask
about
this
when
they
start
is:
oh,
my
mind's
wandering
all
the
time
you
know.
I
wish
was
a
moderate
wandering
all
the
time
and
it's
a
problem.
A
I,
do
I,
stop
it
I,
always
stop
that
mind
wanders
well,
so
the
message
is:
don't
don't
write
about
yourself,
be
you
that
it
wants
to
wander
a
little
laundry
and
you
find
it
and
then
you
bring
it
back
so
people
think
well,
that's
a
mistake
that
mind
wandering
is
a
mistake.
That's
not
a
mistake!
It's
natural!
It's!
Okay!
It's
good!
It's
good
who
you
are
who
I
am,
and
there
is
one
mistake
you
can
make,
though,
and
that's
to
be
harsh
on
yourself:
oh
I'm!
No
good
at
this.
