Discovering the best meditation method for you is one of the highs you can experience in modern chosen mantra over and over, either out loud or in your head.day life.Too often, we are too stressed even to contemplate meditation, even though taking a few quiet minutes to meditate could be one of the best things we could do in our lives.
Learn about the Breathing Techniques. In meditation, one of the first few things that is needs to be learned is proper breathing techniques. To do this, you must first sit comfortably (either on a chair or on the floor) with legs crossed or the Indian sit. Place your palms on each leg with palms facing up. Close your eyes and start to listen to the things happening around you. Start paying close attention to your breathing making sure to slowly inhale and breathe out through your lips. Do this in a slow manner until you are able to concentrate on without being distracted of the noise around you or be bothered by thoughts running through your head.
My best time is 4:00 am. When I awake naturally at that time, I meditate. It is a joyful time, quiet, peaceful, even the birds are still. I love that time because my mind is not filled with thoughts from the day swirling in my head. Since I have just come out of sleep, I am in a state of non-resistance and peace. Typically, I meditate for 15-30 minutes, sometimes longer. Then I decide if I am up for the day or if I want to return to sleep. If I have not meditated at 4:00 am, then I often will meditate before the day's activities.
Whenever a person is having trouble with focus or concentration, as they meditate, the number of random thoughts occurring slowly diminishes, as does a person's attachment to these thoughts, and your identification with them. This happens because we are usually not aware of all the mental activity that we are generally engaged in. Meditation helps to allow the mind's activity to settle down, resulting in you becoming more calm and focused.
To make progress in meditation it is important to meditate at least once a day. If you are inspired then it is good to meditate 3 times a day. Regularity is very important for increasing your meditation capacity. Some people may say it is very hard to find time in a busy day to meditate. However if you really value something then you will find time. 3 times a day we find time to feed the body. We should also feel the necessity of feeding our soul, our inner being. If we value meditation then we will not want to miss our regular period of silence.
The elapsed time of this meditation is quite variable. My purpose is to experience the feeling of connection with the Divine, which I can best describe as "detachment with a heightened awareness." It's a particular sensation, which is understood by those who feel it, yet really ineffable. Usually I reach that state quickly, unless I am agitated and need to release the agitation first. I stay in the feeling until it ends spontaneously. That may be a few seconds or a few minutes. Even if I am only a few seconds in that consciousness, I am replenished for hours.
Rosemary. This soothing herbal concoction can help ward off headaches. This fragrant spice-shelf herb is not only good for perking up roasts and poultry, this can also help prevent certain kinds of stress-induced headaches. Since rosemary helps keep blood vessels dilated, it can prevent headaches caused by vasoconstriction, wherein blood vessels narrow. For preparing a tea, use 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary per cup of boiling water.
The next best time to meditate is in the evening. In the evening the atmosphere becomes a little more restful as we forget the troubles of the day. However if we meditate straight after finishing work then we may still have thoughts from the days activities going around in our mind. Before meditating it is good to take a shower and clear our mind of what has been going on during the day.
You may find that you have a best time of day when you are learning to meditate that is a different best time of day when you are an experienced meditator. When you are just learning to meditate, it is helpful to have optimal conditions -- a quiet place with no interruptions. After you have experienced some benefits of meditating, you will not need to create the ideal situation because you will be committed on a different level. Many people meditate on planes and trains or other noisy places.
