Meditation is a
wonderful way of relaxing and getting away from everyday
stresses of life. It is a way of escaping to anywhere you want
to be. There are plenty of guided meditation CD's about to
help you.
Try this suggestion
It's a good idea to have a glass of water ready for after
your meditation. Try to make sure you won't be disturbed.
e.g. by making sure the phone is switch off.
Begin by sitting comfortably, feet flat on the floor, arms and legs
uncrossed, hands facing upwards.
Take deep breaths in through you nose and out through your mouth
and imagine yourself being surrounded by a beautiful white light
of protection.
Now gradually let your whole body become relaxed. Do this by
imagining each muscle in your body is relaxing more and more. Start at your feet and feel those muscles relaxing, then the
muscles in your calves relaxing, then feel the muscles in your
knees becoming relaxed, Let this wonderful feeling of
relaxation travel up through your body as the muscles gradually
relax in each part of your body. Relax each muscle in turn until
all the muscles are relaxed to the top of your head. Sit quietly
for a while and just let your mind wonder to where ever it wants
to go.
When you are ready slowly open your eyes and rub your feet on
the floor to became grounded again. Have a drop of water
you have ready and you should feel more calmer and relaxed than
before you started your meditation. It gets easier the more you
practise.
This is a
good way of getting to know your 'inner' self. Good luck.
