Vipassana Technique 3 - Entire Breath Awareness
This is a raw recording for a Vipassana practice. It best practiced sitting upright and with headsets on. Please bear with me on the sound quality as I figure out how to best record and edit these recordings.
Vipassana is a practice that helps calm the mind and built greater focus and awareness. There is not restriction in the time of day, or where you can practice this, however, it is a much better experience when done in a quiet and comfortable environment.
This track is a great gentle start for anyone with anxiety or stress. Once you have learnt the concept over a few practice sessions, you can always set a timer and do your own practice.
Disclaimer: These recordings are designed to be practiced either as stand alone, or as part of an ongoing Yoga Jedi program or class. Although these practices are generally safe for everyone, there are some precautions to be taken for medical conditions which may require special considerations, those who have been through major surgery or undergoing certain delicate treatments. In such cases kindly consult with your doctor before proceeding.

Thank you so much for sharing this @kchitrah! It was a little difficult to hear, but I saw your "bear with me" disclaimer :)
Thank you for your patience and feedback @lynncoyle I'm glad you gave it a shot. :)
Will work on the quality of the sound in subsequent ones.
Be sure and let me know when you've got another one up and running ;)
Have an awesome weekend!
Absolutely, will do.
You to hon. Have yourself a beautiful weekend xx
Hey! I re-recorded this as I couldn't bear with the sound quality. The gist is still the same. Hope you like this better.
Alright, here's a new one from today (8th Nov, 2018). Enjoy!
Intriguing... No fair making me sleepy when I just woke up. :)
Hahaha, sorry about that. Perhaps you need more sleep ;p
Ok, I went in and recorded this meditation all over again as the sound quality was just too unbearable. The gist is still the same. ;) Enjoy
Ek luister gou en maak seker ek het koffie sodat ek nie slaap nie :)
LOL!!! Dan moet jy voor die bed luister en diep slaap (excuse the grammatical errors, as I used google translate)
Sound is much better yet, mmm you are right to say practice because focusing on those things gives me that kind of weird tense feeling, like if you were to tap your finger in the same spot without changing the rhythm or anything, don't know how to explain it but yeah hope that goes away with practice haha.
All in all sounds good and I do feel a bit more relaxed even If I only got to like min4 before I had to give up. weak mind I guess I don't know haha.
Hmmm, I don't think it is an indication of weak or strong mind. Just that you are not used to sitting quietly to observe your breath. Perhaps you could do it without headsets, but in a quiet room. And 4 mins IS OK. It's a wonderful starting point.
We aren't generally used to slowing down to sit quietly in our life, other than sleep. So, it's natural that it feels unnatural at first. Take your time.
Thanks for giving it a shot. I'll consider doing some shorter recordings. ;) Thanks for giving it another shot and the feedback @penderis :)
