The text below is aimed at considering the behaviour of children but I think it is very relevant to all of us. Awareness of our own or another's needs also fosters connection, which is a lovely thing in of itself.

Meditation helps you be clever-selfish. A study has found that meditation directly enhances compassionate responding. After just 8 weeks of meditation, meditators were 5 times more likely to act to relieve another person’s pain than non-meditators. Helping others makes you feel good. This is what His Holiness The Dalai Lama refers to as being 'clever-selfish'. Meditation helps you help others, so get ready to feel super good. Commit to sit.

I love this meditation by Jack Kornfield. A little bit of humour and a lot of affection for humanity. I find the balance between Jack talking and space for practice to be just right. All in just 12 minutes! You can commit to sit for 12 minutes, right? Enjoy.

When we're in an anxious, angry or depressed place, our brains prioritise negative thoughts over positive ones. A study found that people who complete a meditation experience fewer negative thoughts in response to viewing negative images afterwards. Still that worried mind and look forward to a reduction in negative thoughts.

Want to become emotionally limber? Five minutes a day of soothing breathing at a rate of 5 to 6 breaths per minute will increase vagal tone. No, I'm not being rude. "Vagal tone" is to do with the vagus nerve which energises or soothes our system. Practicing this soothing, rhythmic breathing has been shown to tone the vagus nerve which makes us better able to switch between energised and calm states. Ups our emotional flexibility in response to the world around us, as it were. Commit to, er, breathe!
