Meditation - How Does It Work? - Key to Meditation and Spirituality

anwiii
smile.gif Meditation is Good for anyone to perform as a Daily routine in their lives .
I should perform it more in my own Life ,but sometimes get to busy to actually Take the Time which is really excuse I use for forgetting .
Tuning into your Higher Self is Important Part of your Own Life
May be Try This ,fitting it as part of your day to day Life.

QUOTE
Find a comfortable place and position yourself comfortably, either sitting up, or lying down (if you can meditate lying down without falling asleep).Place your thumb and one of your fingers together; this will become your body's "cue" to help you "get into state" in the future.
Relax your body and breathe…focus on your breath, feeling your breath entering your body, filling you, and as you release your breath at a natural pace, let any tensions, concerns, worries, slip away…as you relax, feel your tongue lying loose and limp on the floor of your mouth, and you begin to feel a floating sensation in your body.
Breathe this way, and begin counting from 1 to 21…1, 2, 3,4…going deeper, feeling in your mind's eye that you are moving through a tunnel of loving light…5, 6, 7, 8, going deeper still, conscious, calm, aware, fully in control…9, 10, 11, 12…traveling through this tunnel of light, deeper still, aware and in complete control, yet there is nothing in the environment which can distract you…12, 14, 15,16…nearing the perfect state for doing the work you've come to do, you feel clear, aware only in your mind's awareness, your body completely limp…17, 18, 19, 20…and 21.
If you are willing, by the time you've reached 21, you will be deeply relaxed and ready to do the work you've come to do. You will remain in control. Your "inner wisdom" will guide the choices you make while in this state.
Know that while you are in this state you may access, if you wish, whatever information, insight, or assistance for whatever loving purpose you desire from those operating in the highest levels of Light and Love.
Now, say to yourself, "Connecting with my Higher Self".Imagine that appearing in front of you, is your Higher Self. Take a moment to notice what this person looks like. If you see an image of anything which appears to represent an issue you are working on at present, acknowledge that this is where your Higher Self wishes to begin the conversation, and ask to see Him or Her in "true form"…see yourself in full beauty and power. Take in your Higher Self in detail…what are they wearing? What is conveyed about their personality and character in their dress or appearance? Be open to your Higher Self taking any form it might take, and know that you will understand what the message is.

Now, you may ask, if you wish, any question you like. Spend as much time as you wish with your Higher Self, communing, receiving guidance and support.
When you are ready to return, thank your Higher Self and bid them goodbye, knowing that you can return to this place any time you choose, simply by placing your thumb and fingers together and counting…begin counting back now, from 21 to 1 in a slow and gradual manner. 21, 20, 19…departing now…18, 17, 16, 15, moving back through the tunnel now…14,13, 12, 11…feeling your consciousness shifting now, slowly…10, 9, 8…feel the energies in your bodies balancing…7, 6, 5, 4…becoming aware of your surroundings, and feeling completely relaxed and refreshed, as if you have taken a wonderful long nap…3, 2…coming aware, now, gently move your fingers and toes as you reawaken into normal consciousness‘…and open your eyes, feeling revitalized, peaceful, and remembering in detail your conversation with your Higher Self


Should Feel High Energy ,Peace Flow Through out your Body .
Very Relaxing . smile.gif

A very good book about meditation is "The Attention Revolution: Unlocking the Power of the Focused Mind.", by Alan Wallce. It explains with some depth a milinar technique called Shamatha in sanscrit.
Perhaps some of you would like to visit his website. Just google his name an you can't miss it. I believe this is a book that anyone interested in meditation should read, whether beginning or having some years of practice.

IMHO
When I first tried meditation, I expected the end result to be total relaxation. What happened instead was frustration. I could not "empty my mind!" It seemed the quieter I got, the more things would rush into my head. Every little noise I heard made me a little cranky. I couldn't get comfortable in any of the positions recommended in the book I had purchased to help me learn to meditate. I was really on edge - which was the reason I wanted to try meditation to begin with...

Thanks to sheer tenacity, I did not give up, as I truly wanted to experience the benefits of meditation. I talked to a few friends who practiced yoga and regularly meditated, bought a few more books, and dug in.

Since I had such an active mind, I couldn't expect to "empty it" right away. I was putting pressure on myself for this to happen and it was only making matters worse. So instead of getting empty, I tried getting full. What I mean is that I used imagery to fill my head with an alternative to everything else that was distracting me. In one book, I found a sort of story... I am sitting in front of a mirror. Behind me in the mirror is a beautiful forest and as I look into the forest, I see myself standing up and walking to the trees, inhaling the lovely scent of nature. At that point, I begin to breath in a very regulated way, inhaling the forest smells and looking up to see sunlight through the trees as I exhale. As I continued to do this, I found myself focused on my breathing, which is something else that is recommended in most books on meditation. Eventually, I got better at getting this focus and after much practice, I can now get into a meditative state with relative ease. The key, like with anything, is to keep practicing.

I also used to have a hard time falling asleep. Something I found in one of the meditation books really helped. I would close my eyes and instead of fighting the sounds I heard, I would welcome them into my mind. I'd wait and listen for a car to pass, rather than being distracted by it. The little sounds in the house - the refrigerator, the heater, etc. - I would treat at "background" music. It may sound a little crazy, but it totally worked. This technique, along with slow, steady breathing, still helps to lull me to sleep at night when I have trouble.

My only problem with meditation is that I don't make enough time for it in my life. I do try to use some form of it for at least a few minutes a day, which doesn't get you into a deeply relaxed state, but can still help. I recently bought a book called "Five Minute Meditations," which teaches you ways and places that you can meditate during a normal busy day. For example - at the gym while waiting for the next machine or while taking a walk (yes, your eyes are open for that one!). I belong to an amatuer bowling league and before my turns, I close my eyes and just breath for a few minutes. My average has gone up because I'm more relaxed and focused! I need to do a lot more of these things - because the benefits are so worth it.

So my advice to anyone that has tried meditation and given up? Try again. And keep trying. Eventually, you'll be rewarded with the ability to stay calm in hectic situations and find peace inside yourself.
