PRACTISE MEDITATION FOR A CALM MIND

When you practise meditation, your mind is not focused on what’s around you, or on the things that are concerning you. It is the art of allowing your mind to become completely still, like a pool of water with no ripples. To begin, find a quiet, uncluttered place and sit in a comfortable position. Close your eyes if you would like. Take slow, steady breaths and focus your attention on them. If a thought comes into your mind, acknowledge it but don’t pursue it. Remain focused on your breathing. Notice if any parts of your body feel tense – if so, relax them. Let yourself be still and soft. Do this for as long as you would like to, whether that’s for five minutes or for half an hour. Emptying your mind is easier said than done, and some people find it easier to reach that state of calm than others. However, with practice, anybody can master meditation and reap the benefits.

In meditation, I can let go of everything… I’m just dipping into that powerful source that creates everything. I take a little bath in it.

MEDITATION AND PRAYING CHANGE YOUR SPIRIT INTO SOMETHING POSITIVE. IF IT IS ALREADY POSITIVE, IT MAKES IT BETTER.
