Meditation…to a lot of people sounds difficult
but the secret
is
it’s really easy
Don’t worry about any pre conceptions about needing to sit cross legged amid incense smoke & chanting some mysterious mantra or trying to clear your mind when it’s totally crammed with the thoughts and worries of the day.
Thoughts, ideas, worries will come and go.
Let them
Don’t feel you have to make any effort to clear your mind because you don’t ,things will all happen naturally if you let go.
One way of letting go is to imagine any worries in little clouds that float away( clouds are the only things we can not push or pull)
Just continue to sit and do nothing
Slowly your thoughts, feelings and your physical body will align and your energies will come into balance. Don’t worry about it happening it just will.
Enjoy the feeling of comfort the lack of distraction. Sense how your heart feels, sense how your tummy feels
If they feel a little tense then visualize any stress just evaporating from them.
Allow your senses to wander and go wherever they like. Thoughts, ideas, feelings and sometimes even colours will flash past.
Let them come and go and just be the detached observer.
Remember the last time you were sitting in the sun and how it felt with the sun on your body.
Just imagine it.
Soak up that sunlight. Encourage the light to surround and fill your body.
Just sit and sink deeper into meditation, increasingly relaxing and attuning
Memorize the steps and try it.
Give it time and you will find very quickly you are able to relax into the meditative state more and more quickly.
