is the mysterious ladder which reaches from earth to heaven, from error
to truth, from darkness to light, from pain to bliss, from restlessness
to abiding peace, from ignorance to knowledge, from mortality, to
immortality.” ~ Sivananda, Bliss Divine “Science
has discovered that the physiological state of meditators undergoes
definite shifts toward more efficient functioning. The most significant
conclusion is that the hormonal imbalance associated with stress and
known to speed up the aging process is reversed – long-term meditators
can have a biological age between five and ten years younger than their
chronological age.”~ Dr. Deepak Chopra
1. MAKE YOURSELF COMFORTABLE
Making
sure that you are in a comfortable position is very important. If you
are uncomfortable during meditation, it will distract you. This can make
it hard to clear the mind and relax. To help you sit in an upright
position, use pillows and props to support your posture. To maintain a
comfortable body temperature, use blankets and warm clothes as needed.
Make sure to use the bathroom before meditation. Avoid stimulants, such
as caffeine and sugar, before meditation.
2. PREPARE THE SETTING
Choose
a private and calming space to practice meditation. Adjust the lighting
or use an eye pillow to block out external light. Choose a time of day
when you feel most relaxed, before bed or when you first wake. Try your
best to minimize external distractions by turning off computers, phones
and television. Use earplugs as needed.
