A Simple Meditation

Your soul is already, in bliss, aware, wise, creative, relaxed and also full of energy. All you need to do to renew yourself with its qualities is touch it by silencing your mind for a while. Meditation is how you do this and meditation is not as difficult as made out to be!

Before I give you a simple technique, let me tell you what it does. Meditation just increases the space between two thoughts and take note that there is nothing such as achieving complete stillness and no thought, here on earth! When the spaces between thoughts increase, there is less of habitual thinking which causes mental clutter and more of feelings and nudges coming from your heart. The hearts desires translate into thoughts in your mind and can be recognised by a relatively silent mind as your first thoughts on a subject. When we meditate, we can easily catch these "first thoughts" because we start to automatically watch what we are thinking! Here is an example of what a "first thought" is like and why you should follow it - If your friend asks you for a coffee and your first thought is a hesitation, then you must follow this hesitation and postpone your coffee for another time. Since your heart knows the future as well, the hesitation was caused because something closer to your heart, such as a close family member dropping by at home, is due to happen, and the coffee date will spoil it!

Now here are a couple of things to do to prepare yourself before you start your meditation:
  1. First, the time has to be right. Early morning after a bath is a good time because you have yet not started your mind on thoughts about work.
  2. Turn off any humming noise from appliances if you can.
  3. Put your phone on "Silent" mode and if possible, place it in another room.
  4. Sit straight on the floor or on a chair or bed.
  5. Let your hands face up and legs be in a comfortable position because you don't want to focus on discomfort.
  6. Close your eyes.

THE MEDITATION

  1. After your preparation is done, slow down the pace of your breath to the slowest rhythm that is comfortable to you. This does not mean taking deep breaths but taking normal breaths at a slower pace.
  2. Now, mentally follow your breath at the tip of your nose going in and then going out.
  3. In your mind you can say “In” as you take a breath in from your nose and “Out” as you allow your breath to go out from your nose.
  4. After sometime if you don't feel like saying it, just follow your breath going in from your nose and out of it, with the attention of your mind.
  5. If some thoughts arise in between, let them come and go like you watch passing vehicles on the road. You don’t sit on every vehicle on the road and go off on it for a ride, do you? No! So, allow these thoughts to flow and just keep following your breath in and out with your mind.
  6. Do this till you feel like. And, when you feel like coming out of it, lie down with your eyes closed.
  7. Then, get up when you feel like and stay blissful by loving the day.


Try to do this every day at the same time but without timing it. Don't ever time it because meditation is all about going into a timeless zone.

Rest assured that with daily meditation, you will be renewed with soulful energy, inside-out, for the day, every day. Your clarity and creativity will give you joy and when expressed will give others joy. Each day will surely be a meaningful day!
