Meditation can be a powerful aid
to self change and general well being. There are
many forms of meditation, but I will share here
the two I find most useful.
Zen style
In Zen
meditation, one simply sits with the objective of
not thinking,listening to inner silence. This is
difficult at first,and to begin you should focus
on counting your breath from 1 to 10 over and
over,and pushing all other thoughts away as they
arise. With enough practice, you will no longer
even need the mental count as a focus. You will
be able to sit in silence. In such a silenced
state, your inner self will be able to speak to
you. It can be a source of great guidance and
peronal power.
Guided
Visualization
This type
of meditation is generally used to accomplish to
specific goal, and the later exercises make use
of it. Sit in a comfortable position and begin
breathing deep and regular. Relax. Quiet your
mind and use your imagination to see youself
taking whatever journey you doing. Make it as
vivid as you can. At first, your imagination may
be weak and fuzzy, but persistence will improve
your ability to visualize anything.
