Anapana is meditation with a focus simply on the movements of air that are a part of respiration. It’s a (the) starting point for meditation. I’ve been making on-and-off efforts at meditation for years now, but this video I ran across (posted by my aunt Janet in facebookland, in fact) is as good an introduction to it as any.
It’s so easy to “forget” to do this. But then it’s not hard to “remember” to do it, again, either – I needed the reminder, I guess. But I’m still not really very good at it – especially lately.
