老师，我们练习时您都会让我们出声诵念，并与呼吸保持同步，所有瑜伽冥想练习都是如此吗？

并不都是，我们练习的是瑜伽语音冥想。又称为曼特拉冥想。梵语曼特拉可分为“曼”和“特拉”两部分，“曼”的意思是“心灵”，“特拉”指的是“引开去”。
bìngbù dōu shì ，wǒmen liànxí de shì yújiā yǔyīn míngxiǎng 。yòu chēng wèi màntèlā míngxiǎng 。fànyǔ màntèlā kě fēnwéi “màn ”hé “tèlā ”liǎng bùfen ，“màn ”de yìsi shì “xīnlíng ”，“tèlā ”zhǐ de shì “yǐnkāiqù ”。
Not all of them are. What we're doing is oral meditation, also known as mantra meditation. Mantra in Sanskrit can be divided into the roots "man", meaning "spirit", and "tra", meaning "draw away".

不必担心，冥想初学者的注意力被思绪牵引是稀松平常的事，你要做的是把冥想的时间切割成小块，多次练习。一次冥想的时间不必超过五分钟。

You don't need to worry, those just starting to learn to meditate will often find their mind drifting off in distraction. What you need to do is to cut your meditation time into short periods and do it regularly. You should only meditate for less than five minutes at a time.
