Instructions for a breath and listening meditation:
1. Sit with your legs and arms uncrossed and your spine as straight as possible.
2. Breathe out with each sound you hear. Match the length of your exhale to the length of the sound.
3. Listen to the sounds. Do not try to translate meaning. Immerse yourself in the sound.
Variation for a breath, voice and listening meditation:
1. Sit with your legs and arms uncrossed and your spine as straight as possible.
2. Listen for each sound and join in with your own voice, making the sound you hear.
3. Focus on listening and breathing, and allow your sounds to arrive without effort.
