How do I find the right breath sequence?
Start off with either the 10,11, or 12 seconds per breath.  If your physical conditioning is more of a couch potato then start of with 10 second sequence.  If you’re in decent shape you can try the 12 second sequence. From here you can decide if you need a sequence that’s longer or shorter.

What am i supposed to feel?
The ultimate goal is a peaceful centered feeling.  However, this may come with practice.

What if i can’t keep my breath in time with the tones?
In the beginning you may have a trial and success period to figure out which tone sequence is right for you.  If you find your breath stretched out to the point of holding your breath between tones, or you find your breath “Jagged” and uncomfortable, or you find your body tightening up (epecially the neck and shoulders) as you try to breathe too deeply, then switch to using a shorter breath sequence.

Once you find a sequence that works for you, you will find it easier to connect with the tones.  It’s ok if you’re off slightly.  You don’t have to stick perfectly to the tones. 

What if i keep falling asleep during the meditation?
This meditation was created with the idea of staying “aware” through the process.  It is optimal to be using this meditation in an upright seated position to prevent falling asleep.  Falling asleep will most likely happen here and there, but that should be more the exception then the rule. 

If you still find yourself sleeping, chances are you probably need some sleep!

What should I be doing during the meditation?
Just follow the directions on the meditation.  Focus on your breathing and timing it with the tones. Thougts, feelings and sensations will come up but as they do, continue to focus on the breathing assignment.  It really is that simple.  We tend to make thing more complicated then they are  and this program is here to help one come back to simplicity and learning how to be comfortable and still in that simplicity so that we see the “bigger” picture.  Chances are, if you feel like you’re not doing anything (but still following the instrucitons on the program) you are doing it right!

What if the meditation actually makes me more anxious or i get impatient?
There’s a saying that goes “love will bring anything unlike itself to the surface for healing.”  Meditation has a tendency to do just that.  Many people who start off meditating experience a sense of impatience and even anxiety as “anything unlike love” comes up to the surface.  It’s this feeling that prevents many from continuing into their meditation practice. 

However, reports from meditation students who are willing to continue through these moments, find that these feelings start too reside and eventually they move into a state of calm. 

With that being said, please use common sense.  If you find that you are not ready to move through, stop.  And if you feel inclined to start later, then start again later. 

I notice that at the beginning I'm fine, but towards the end of the meditation I find I have to speed up my breathing to keep up?
If you’re speeding up your breath to keep up with the tones, chances are that you are probably ready to move up a level or two in breath sequence.  A beauty of this program is it takes into consideration that  ½ second on either the in or out breath can make the biggest differences.  That is why it was created with many breathe sequences to choose from, to accommodate these changes.   It’s like lifting weights… Sometimes a 1 lb increase is all you need to break a  sticking point.

On some days I feel my breathing is deeper and on other days it feels much shorter.  Is it ok to switch breath sequences or should I stay on a particular sequence once I reach it?
Definitely pay attention to your body.  It’s just like working out and exercising.  Some days you’ll be able to run 10 miles and some days only 1 mile.  So yes, feel free to switch breath sequences on any given day.  By listening to your body, you will get better at trusting your instincts for life in general.
