- Focus on your breath and bodily sensations to anchor your awareness.
- Understanding Anatta (Non-Self):

- Realize that thoughts and emotions are transient and not part of our true self.
- Concentration Training:

- Practice loving-kindness to cultivate a friendly demeanor towards others, which can help in social interactions.
- meditation Techniques:
- Engage in different forms of meditation (sitting, walking) and focus on being present.
- Observe the body and breath to maintain awareness and calmness.
- Awareness of impermanence:
- Understand the impermanent nature of feelings, thoughts, and the body to cultivate detachment and wisdom.
