This worksheet gathers several styles of sitting meditation on one page: a basic breath-and-labeling practice, close attention to experience, a loving-kindness practice, a practice of healing ourselves and the world, and a practice of making the “demons” (irritation, fear, boredom, doubt and the like) part of the path. It opens with excerpts from The Work of This Moment by Toni Parker and closes with a reflection question about carrying what you learned into daily life.

A mindful approach to several styles of sitting meditation
“Several Styles of Sitting Meditation” is an invitation to slow down and meet your experience with curiosity, honesty, and kindness.
How mindfulness can help
Mindfulness offers a steady place to stand while you work with any topic. Instead of being carried along by reaction, we notice what is here, sensations, thoughts, and feelings, and respond from presence rather than pressure.
Gentle steps to try
- Begin with the breath. You might take three slow breaths before opening the worksheet, and let the body arrive.
- Read with curiosity. Move through each prompt slowly. Notice which questions soften you and which ones tighten you.
- Write what is true now. There are no right answers, only honest ones. What is true at this moment is what the worksheet is asking for.
- Close with one breath. When you finish, pause. You might place a hand on your heart and thank yourself for showing up.
Insight does not arrive on a schedule. Trust the practice of returning, and the honesty you bring each time you do.
