Meditation is a wonderful way
of relaxing and getting away from everyday stresses of life. It is a way of escaping to anywhere you want to be. There are
plenty of guided meditation CD's about to help you.
Try this
suggestion
It's a good idea to have a glass of water ready for after your meditation.
Try to make sure you won't be disturbed. E.g. by making sure the phone is switch off.
Begin by sitting comfortably, feet flat on the floor, arms and legs uncrossed, hands facing upwards.
Take deep breaths in through you nose and out through your mouth and imagine yourself being surrounded by a beautiful
white light of protection.
Now gradually let your whole body become relaxed. Do this by imagining each muscle in your body is relaxing more and
more. Start at your feet and feel those muscles relaxing, then the muscles in your calves relaxing, then feel the muscles
in your knees becoming relaxed, Let this wonderful feeling of relaxation travel up through your body as the muscles
gradually relax in each part of your body. Relax each muscle in turn until all the muscles are relaxed to the top of your
head. Sit quietly for a while and just let your mind wonder to where ever it wants to go.
When you are ready slowly open your eyes and
rub your feet on the floor to become grounded again. Have a drop of water you have ready and you should feel calmer and relaxed
than before you started your meditation. It gets easier the more you practice.
This is a good way of getting to know your 'inner' self. Good luck.
