Meditation takes away fear, worry, and anger and replaces the mind with positive, strong attitudes. Its daily practice gives control over the flow of life-force. As a result, an attitudinal change takes place leading to dispassionate approach to worldly pleasures.

One of the easiest ways to meditate is listening songs or reading holy books for ten or twenty minutes. While sitting with spine erect, you are aligning energy to the Almighty force.

Normal Steps

1. Sit in a chair with spine erect, shoulders relaxed, feet flat on the floor. Fold hands together in lap and close eyes.
2. Take three slow deep breaths, exhaling to the base of spine, and feel relaxing. Sit with hands together for a few minutes.
3. Open hands, palms up, laying them gently in lap. Keep focus on music, reading, song whatever is there.
4. Meditator can affirm or visualize such as, "The Perfect partner is manifesting in my life," or whatever you are choosing to create in life, i.e. prosperity, wisdom, career. If the meditation is in the evening after the daily routines, review the day, how you reacted in situation, take fresh, positive decisions.
5. Close hand into a fist and feel a balloon of white light a block all around you and underneath you so that you're in the center. This sends love and healing out to the world and buffers negative energy from coming into you.

True meditation does not end here. Endeavor to practice the meditation attitude in thoughts and behaviour. In short, meditation is a simple and powerful tool to lead a stress-free life. Relationships will be rewarding once developed a calm, relaxed sensitivity of life via meditation.

All forms of meditation are good, but in our high speed society, we need to learn how to protect our energy by closing down at the end.

Breathing: In meditation diaphragmatic breathing is important. As we inhale, diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle, contracts and flattens its curve, creating a vacuum into which the lungs can expand. As this happens the diaphragm pushes the abdominal muscles outward.

Diaphragmatic breathing can, and should, be done in any position, but it is easiest to re-learn when you are most relaxed, lying on the floor. Lie on your back with your arms at your sides, palms upward. Many people find it easier to relax the diaphragm if they bend their knees, placing their feet flat on the floor. Relax completely, especially the stomach and abdomen. Now, breathe deeply and slowly, concentrating on the diaphragm, and feeling your stomach rise as you inhale and fall as you exhale. Relax the abdominal muscles more and more completely, using the diaphragm, and not the stomach muscles, to create the rise and fall of the abdomen.

After a few minutes practice on the floor you can sit in a cross-legged position and continue diaphragmatic breathing. It helps to close your eyes and concentrate on relaxing the stomach, allowing it to swell outward and relax back inward. Once you know how to breathe correctly you can practice diaphragmatic breathing wherever you are. It may take a couple of weeks to retrain yourself but you will find the results worth the effort. Be sure to check to see that you are breathing diaphragmatically as you begin your meditations.
