How to Meditate For Beginners – Four Simple Steps

Meditation is not just simply relaxation and remedy for fatigue. It does relieve the stress and anxiety and improve the health of the body. Meditation is something more than that. The real meditation is a process of changing the state of consciousness. It’s a way to transform your personality, a way of self-discovery. You can not do the meditation. The real meditation happens to you. However if you practice certain techniques it will happen more and more often. Such meditation can improve all aspects of your life.

In the beginning it is a technique. By practicing that technique regularly you will soon discover that meditation actually is a quality of the consciousness and your being. This process can be roughly described by the following scheme: (1) Deep relaxation – (2) Quieting the mind – (3) Witnessing without making any judgments – (4) Entering the meditation state.

There are certain things that can help you in the beginning of your practice. First you need to choose a meditation technique that would be right for you. All techniques have been perfected for ages. All of them are functional. But it is you who chooses which one can work better for you. If you picked a technique listen to yourself, to your feelings while sitting in meditation. The answer will come from within that let you know if this technique is right for you or not.

The second thing what you need to do is to setup a meditation space. If you sit at the same time in the same place it will become easier to enter meditation state over time. Of course the best choice is to meditate outdoors. However it is not always feasible therefore chose a room or a corner in your house that will be devoted only for meditations. Very soon just sitting in this place will bring you into the right state of consciousness.

Chakra Clearing – Re-energize and Balance Yourself in Twenty Minutes

Chakra clearing paves the way to opening your creative energy. Learn how to easily clear up what may be blocking you from success. Re-energize and balance yourself in twenty minutes.

I want to share with you a process that will clear your Chakras allowing you to get the most out of any Chakra based meditation you may be doing.

I discovered this technique a while back and was grateful I did. It gave me clarity about which of my Chakras needed attention. That information allowed me to work on the areas in my life that were blocked.

Let’s Start with some basic background information. The word Chakra means vortex or wheel. Chakras are energy centers in our body. There are seven main Chakras in the body. They are lined up from the base of the spine to the top of your head. Each Chakra adjusts different aspects of your personality. They each have different tasks. By Chakra clearing you can give your whole entire energy system a boost.

Breakdown of Each Chakra

First Chakra: Color: Red The base or root Chakra located at the base of the spine. Responsible for basic survival needs, groundedness, sexuality and strength.

Second Chakra: Color: Orange the Womb/Spleen Chakra is located below the navel. Responsible for: creativity, intimacy and warmth

Third Chakra color: Yellow The Solar Plexus Chakra located above the navel. Responsible for:
confidence, power and learning.

Fourth Chakra Color: Green Heart Chakra located in the middle of the chest. Responsible for: love, healing, unity, empathy and service.

Fifth Chakra Color: Sky Blue Throat Chakra located at the throat. Responsible for: communication,
creativity and expression.

Sixth Chakra Color: Indigo or White Third eye Chakra located between the eyebrows just above the bridge of the nose. Responsible for: Psychic abilities and higher consciousness.

Seventh Chakra Color: Purple Crown Chakra located at the top of the head. Responsible for: spirit and higher self.

Clearing, Strengthening and Balancing Your Chakras.

Lie on your back. You can do this your self or have a friend perform the technique. First shake your hands to clear the energy. Then take your hands, open and palms down one on top of the other and place them over the first Chakra and start to circle it counterclockwise about 3 to 4 inches above the Chakra. To determine which is counterclockwise imagine a clock lying face up on your navel.

*You can use one hand if you like, then use the left to clear and the right to sooth.

Make sure you or your friend make slow counterclockwise circles over the Chakra. Do this for approximately one to two minutes. Then shake off your hands to clear the energy and circle clockwise for half as long as the counterclockwise direction.
Repeat this with each Chakra. If you are a man and Chakra clearing everything is the same expect for the crown Chakra. With that Chakra you would start clockwise to clear the Chakra and then counterclockwise to sooth it.

The Benefits

When doing this process you will notice that the counterclockwise brings up toxic energies moving these out of the body. The clockwise portion is very important as it completes the process by soothing the Chakra then stabilizing it.

You may notice headaches or a stomach ache when you are Chakra clearing; this means you are accomplishing the goal and getting rid of any clogged energy. After you have stopped and shake your hands then start in the clockwise direction this will sooth that Chakra and soon your headache or stomachache ache will disappear.

Use Chakra clearing daily or weekly. You can use it as often as you feel necessary based on your mood.

At the first start of this process you may find that one or two Chakras need more attention, if that is the case you may want to clear those everyday until you notice a difference in your energy. Then once you feel those Chakras have been cleared you can switch to once a week.

When I first started with this technique I noticed right away which Chakras needed attention. Allowing for the realization of which areas in my life I needed to work on.

Since each Chakra has its own personality traits it’s responsible for, it is easy to see where you will need to focus in order to feel balance and energized again. Take a look at the specific areas that are causing you the most discomfort when you start the Chakra clearing.

I noticed that my heart Chakra needed some attention. I then started to look at why I may have a blocked heart Chakra and discovered I needed to forgive myself for some past mistakes that I had made.

Chakra clearing is one of the many useful tools I have found to give me that peaceful centered feeling. I hope you enjoy the discovery of your energy centers and how relevant they are to a well balanced healthy life style.

Namaste.
