By Annabelle Holman


While it is often easy to find a number of audio and visual meditative videos online, not all can provide the right focus. It is for this reason there are also a number of books related to the topic. One being that of the Hazelton Self Meditation Book series.

Some topics which Mr. Hazelton and others have written self help guides for are related to addiction. Books include titles on over eaters, twelve step programs, sex addiction and others. The main reason for these book series are that an ongoing practice can help individuals find the focus and will to change.

Some ongoing practice is considered part of the Buddhist Faith. Today, meditation has found its place in both the secular and spiritual aspects of society. Given Buddhist philosophy suggest it takes seven years to reach enlightenment, individuals often prefer the more secular sessions unless a devout Buddhist.

There is no doubt that meditation and prayer are popular around the world. Depending on the Faith of the individual, one or the other most likely is part of a spiritual path. Whether or not the spiritual path may be rooted in a specific religion often depends on the morals, values and judgements with which the individual has been raised.

These books follow some of the most important practices as directed by the Buddha. The Four Sathipattana Meditations guide the mind to help understand the realities behind the connection of body, mind and spirit. It is believed actively perusing this path can also increase wisdom and vitality.

When it comes to basic forms, "focused meditation, " individuals focus 100% of energy on a problem or situation until finding a resolution. "Letting go, " is used to clear the mind of built up, clutter and stress. A good way of "letting go, " is to count down from 100 backwards while thinking of nothing and no one.

When first beginning, it is often suggested individuals sit for 30 minutes. It is advised that more experienced individuals gradually increase the length of sitting time in increments of fifteen to thirty minutes. Once having reached a comfortable length of time, the individual can try repeating the sitting as often as necessary.

The practice can also be seen as a healing agent in that it has been proven to help ease pain. In some cases, it has been reported that ongoing practice has also cured cancer. Most often, while the first is true, the latter is far more rare and there have been no official research studies which report the claim as valid.

Audio files and visualizations related to meditating are offered on a number of different websites. There are also a number of websites which offer a basic introduction into the practice. While these are often free of charge, some individuals still prefer books and practice at home. Others, prefer to attend classes, seminars and workshops and attend local community events related to the practice.
