Meditation for some is a cure for depression, a peaceful interlude from the stresses of life and for most a healthful way to relax and to achieve some peaceful moments that can only be found when we listen-within.
It has been found to achieve good results with meditation you should choose a particular time per day and a particular place to meditate. This quiet time becomes a daily exercise that will help you relax and focus as you listen-within.
Find a relaxing position either sitting on a chair or on the floor and close your eyes. Take a deep relaxing breath... hold it for a few seconds and then let your breath out slowly. With your eyes closed you are looking upward within the darkness towards the spot between your eyebrows.
The spot we are looking towards is at the top of the triangle, your two eyes form the base of the triangle and the point of our focus is in the center of your eyebrows.
Breath deeply, hold a few seconds and then as you expel your breath... feel and see all the negativity leaving your body. You are releasing all negative thoughts and images and picturing them floating away from you.
You are emptying you're daily thought patterns... there must be room for spirit to enter... Relax.. Let go... let the quietness of spirit enter your being.
You now are experiencing a quiet peaceful moment...
Experiencing a peaceful moment might be all you take away from your experience. If you truly want more... you must ask within for experience with the light and sound.
You must wait and have the expectation that spirit will reveal itself to you in the form of the light and sound.
Mediation in the same spot... at the same time... will help you start to focus within.. There are ways to travel within... and most of us have not even traveled to many places in this outer world, and who is to say that your inner world cannot be even more beautiful than the outer world.
Do you like to discover new places?
Be patient because as with any journey you must train yourself to walk upon an unfamiliar path in order to learn something new. When venturing forth, what gifts will you bring and trade to those that you meet on your path? Will you bring the gifts of positive thought, spiritual attitude and inner peace? If you happen upon a teacher who offers you spiritual knowledge, you will have to give some of your love and the gifts already mentioned above so that it is possible to walk within the light and sound of the spiritual worlds. You can make it happen... if you look and listen-within.
Listen-Within To Find Your Moment... Relax... Breathe
Finding your personal moment of relaxation to listen-within can be a challenge. It's the moment you've been waiting for all day. Everyone has gone to bed, the house is quiet and secure, you've put all thoughts of problems on a shelf too high for reaching and you've found your moment to relax... Breathe.. and to enjoy your moment of peace.
Some people have a hard time relaxing...they have been busy with the family, work, bills, and often times feel depressed and anxiety ridden because for some there seems to be more problems than solutions to daily tasks. Quick Tips: If you are feeling emotional... drink lots of water. If you are feeling tired...walk outside and hug a tree. If you are feeling disconnected from the world....pet a cat... walk a dog...feed a raven and smell a flower (or scented candle if it is winter).
Close your eyes, take a deep inward breath... relax and let your breath go... and close your eyes and listen-within. If you are having trouble focusing and letting go of the outer...ypu might use a candles mesmerizing flame against a clear sphere (use the sphere... such as a crystal ball to ground negative and noisy thoughts by holding on tightly to the sphere for a few seconds... then relax your grip and tensions and focus to keep your mind still so you can listen-within. )
Key #1 to Successful Life
Breath
by Deb St.George
What do all living entities have in common?
They must breath in the spiritual flow of life.
What happens when we no longer breathe?
Our spirit leaves this body.
Our soul rides upon the spiritual currents back to the ocean of love and mercy.
The light of Spirit is always with us.
Imagine a spiritual energy field surrounding your body.
This energy field is what propels the physical body through this plane of existence.
In this physical body we are constrained by time and space.
When we sleep, soul leaves this body and travels on the inner planes.
As there is no time or space on the inner planes... travel is done at the speed of thought.
So why did we as soul come to this world and take on a physical body?
To Breath...
What could be better than flowing as soul thru the spiritual ocean of love and mercy?
Taking on form, taking on a physical body... experiencing breath as a physical form.
This is not Souls true home.
We exist here for a short time only.
As soul we do not need a physical body to exist.
We are bound by our thoughts to this place,
We are bound by our love to our family, our community and our life beliefs.
We are bound by our daily matrix of living patterns.
Then we are released from this place.
Our spiritual flow is once again revitalized and renewed by joining with other souls.
In the spiritual ocean of love and mercy
Spirit takes many forms
Here is an exercise that will help brighten your day:
"At the moment of waking up,
before getting out of bed,
get in touch with your breath,
feel the various sensations in your body,
note any thoughts and feeling that maybe present,
let mindfulness touch this moment,
Can you feel your breath?
Can you perceive the dawning of each in breath?
Can you enjoy the feeling of the breath freely
entering your body in this moment?
“Breathe in I smile,
breathe out I calm my body,
dwelling in the present moment,
it is a wonderful moment.”
Spirit takes many forms to speak to us.
Imagine the form that you are most comfortable with and listen-within.
To Your Success... Deb St.George
