A Meditation for You and for Now
The bottom line about meditation is this: communication.
A meditation can be done anywhere. But the best location is the one where you are in a quiet place, uninterrupted, and where you can relax and feel safe.
A good meditation posture is the one where you sit or lay down with your eyes closed in whatever position is most comfortable for you.
Like other forms of communication, the more you practice meditation, the more you will be receptive to the energy and greater awareness of the activity.
At the beginning of your meditation, you may want to light a candle, ring a bell, burn incense, play soothing music. You may hold a meaningful store or other symbol such as a cross or star.
Close your eyes and focus your breathing as you inhale and exhale slowly and deeply. Think about your breath as you inhale and exhale. Breathe slowly and deeply for the next several minutes while you allow your sacred self to take control. This will let you calm your sensory perceptions.
Notice how your body relaxes with each breath.
This quiet time is a priority. With every breath, you relax a bit more deeply. Light and energy and positive thoughts enter your body with every inhale.
Allow a sense of well-being and gentle relaxation to cover your entire self.
Toxins, anxiety, and frustrations leave your body with each exhale. This is a good time to discard discomfort. Relaxation replaces the toxins with every breath.
Breathe in healing light and warmth from the crown of your head down through your body – your upper chest, your back and spine, down your abdomen and pelvic areas, hips, thighs, and down your legs to your feet.
Your breath will guide this light to encircle your body and circulate around your body several times.
When you are ready, gather the energy at your feet and let it flow up your body to your head.
See this energy flowing out from your head as a fountain of light. It gathers at your feet in a pool of energy and then flows back up to the crown of your head.
Repeat this fountain flow several times – as long as you like.
When you are relaxed, comfortable, and energized, it is time to leave the meditation and return to the room.
Open your eyes. Gently shake your arms, hands, legs, and feet.
Now, smile, knowing that you can return to this space whenever you want.
