BENEFITS OF MEDITATION
Meditation is a place for us to connect with our soul. The soul is always right there as a tool for guidance and support.
Aligning with your soul can help you to live a more conscious, mindful life and can also help you to transcend the ego and tune in to your highest purpose.
Your soul is beyond anything your mind can construct. It is smarter than the most innovative computers and more powerful than any other source of energy.
When we are disconnected from our soul and stuck in the mind and thought patterns, we restrict and limit our potential. When the soul is disconnected our potential is caught up in worry, anxiousness, stress and depression. In these moments, try and remember your soul is endless, infinite and timeless and it’s waiting for you to say Hello.
HOW TO MEDITATE
Find a quiet place and take some deep breaths. Meditation cleanses the ethereal body or auric field of the body. Meditation helps in improving the flow of energy through the body, clearing blockages and allowing stagnation to free up and be mobilized.
- Sit in a comfortable position with your eyes closed.
- Bring your awareness to your body and the breath. Breathe in and out deeply from the belly 5-6 times.
- If any thoughts come up, don’t resist them, simply allow them to pass without engaging in them. Imagine your thoughts as leaves floating down a stream, they are there, but you are just looking at them, observing them as they go by.
- Use your breath to increase the space inside and around your body. If it helps, you can imagine this space as a white light, filling you and the space around you.
- Once you feel a connection to this space you may begin to feel tingles or the gentle hum of your soul.
- At this stage, ask your soul for guidance, for healing, or to present itself to you more clearly through life.
- Finish the mediation by gently coming back into the awareness of your physical body and opening your eyes.
- You may need to practice this meditation a few times to really see the benefits. Start with just 15 minutes a day and work your way up to 30 minutes.
