Struggling to do the exercise?
Find a quiet place, somewhere that blocks out any unnecessary distractions so you can fully focus.
If you struggle to focus while on a computer you can do the exercise yourself in your own garden or while out and about. Focus on your surroundings and draw your attention to its finer details.
You may also prefer more active forms of mindfulness such as focusing on what you can hear, and smell while waking in the bush.
