Breath control technique that can be used as meditation or pranayama.

Meditation is followed by detailed instructions in the audio. Please listen and once mastered can be practised anywhere to calm your self.

This is also called box breathing used by the US Navy Seals in high combat zones during their decision making process.

This is also used as an anger management tool.

I always include it as a step in my daily meditation practise or whilst teaching classes.

You can practise trataka on your own reflection in a mirror or in a still body of water, such as a pond or lake. The best time to practise this is when the sun is high in the sky, not at night or on a cloudy or rainy day. If it is dark outside, there should be sufficient light in the room so that the eyes are not strained.

When you practise trataka on your own reflection you must always remember that whatever you see is a projection or manifestation of your own self. Nothing comes from outside.

While practising this form of trataka, if you experience the emergence of any psychic apparitions, then it is better to leave the practice.

This practice is useful for developing a deeper awareness of your surroundings. It helps to improve your perception, observation, inner visualization and memory. It can be practised in any surroundings and in almost any situation. In this practice try to observe every detail within your full field of vision, while holding the gaze steadily on one central point. Then close your eyes and try to recreate the same scene within. #trataka #meditation #advancedmeditation #mindfulness #dharana #dharanameditation #dharanadarshan
