Many people tell me they know there are great benefits to meditation, yet they don’t know how to meditate. It is common for people to struggle with slowing down their minds. So when asked “how do I meditate?” my response is:
The only thing needed is the desire to connect with one’s Self and an openness to receive. Simply sit comfortably with your spine straight. Close your eyes and breathe in deeply. Feel the presence in and around you. Roll your eyes slightly up in your head and gaze into the point between your eyebrows (the third eye). Now just stay focused on the feeling between your eyebrows. By focusing on the feeling, the feeling naturally builds. At first you will feel more calm and peace. As the feeling increases, it is normal to feel joy and bliss.
Honestly, while it is easy to explain how to meditate, it is hard to put the feeling that occurs into words. The best advice is to try it. For most people, it is easier to meditate via a guided meditation from an experienced teacher.
The bottom line is that consistent meditation leads to a healthier mind and body. My belief is that we all have a soul that is pure and enlightened. Meditation is the ultimate tool to help purify the mind and the body to allow the light and love of your soul to shine through. If you are looking for increased health, energy, connection, peace and love in your life, Shaktipat meditation is wonderful solution.
