Deepak Chopra's One-Minute Meditation

Chopra’s Tips on How to Practice STOP Meditation

1. Stop what you're doing.

2. Take some deep breaths and focus on the sensations of your breathing. You can even count your breaths i.e. inhale "1," exhale "2," inhale "3" etc. This helps you reconnect with the present moment and also creates a buffer between your thoughts and your actions.

3. Observe what is going on. Ask yourself four questions:

Who am I?
What do I want?
What is my dharma or purpose?
What am I grateful for?

4. Proceed with your day with this new sense of mindful awareness (based on your thoughts or answers to the questions above).
