Many a times people want to practice long hours of meditation but unable to do so. They get frustrated and disappointed over a period of time and give up. The practice is sporadic. The following ways will help you to have consistent meditation practice.
Be activity focused- just do meditation. Forget on posture, breathing, experience etc. just do it day in and day out. This is best way to begin. Many a times people try to reach perfection in meditation in one go which will never happen. The simple rule is practice every day.
Be time focused- just do for 45minutes to one hour. One can not sit easily in meditation for 45 minutes to one hour. It will require some training. Mind will be restless and will pull you here and there. Just sit for 45 minutes this is the best way.
Aim for 48days. Do not break this time limit. It will become habit unconscious and easy to practice once you reach 48 days. All resistance, problems and difficulties will come and subside in this period. Even posture can be mastered by the same method. Aim for one minute of back straight, and then do it for 5 minutes. Once you reach that limit then raise the bar to 10 minutes. This will be easy way. Congratulate yourself and appreciate yourself for every barrier u break. Review yourself and be positive with internal dialogue. You should appreciate yourself when you reach a barrier. After few minutes of celebration focus on where you have to reach next. This is called as dual motivation.
Keep the activity first in the priority- mind gets imprinted what you do first in the day. When u go to sleep affirm what u will do the next day. This is one of the best way to master any habit. What you visualize is what you become.
Simple steps- let me sum up
