Title: Simple Meditation: Five Steps

Author: Jim Somchai

Article:
Meditation can be a way to release your mind from stress. It was
used in the far east of the world for thousands of years. Many
religions use this method to practice the mind. It also is the
mean to get closer to their spiritual leader. The method is also
believed to help people work more effectively either for
studying or in the real life work.

Why meditation is useful? This is used to clean your mind. The
body and mind are separated in the sense that the mind controls
the body. The clear mind can think more effectively since there
is no influence from outside environment. Concentration on the
present will make you free from all emotion especially negative
ones. It also reduces the negative feeling towards yourself and
others. It reduces your metabolism and promotes good health if
done regularly. Students can study better with only a few
minutes meditation daily. The same will happens to an adult who
work the whole day and need a rest. Your body needs a rest and
your mind needs that too. Meditation can be the best way to give
a relaxation to your mind.

Before you start meditation, we need to know your purpose of
doing this. You need to know what you want out of this process.
If you are clear on what you want, you will schedule yourself to
do this daily. Discipline is very important for all useful
procedure. Like physical muscle, your mind needs practice to
make it stronger. Therefore, make sure that you schedule some
time for doing this everyday. The steps to meditate if you are
the beginner include:

Step 1 Be in a comfortable position. Sit on your favorite chair
or pillow. The best material is a soft mattress. Most of
oriental ways request you to sit on the floor. Be prepared to
sit in the same position for a period of time. The right
meditation asks you to sacrifice moving while you feel some
fatigue in your legs or back. You need to decide how long you
want to meditate. You can start with twenty to thirty minutes a
session. Place a small clock in front of you so that you can
notice the time of your meditation. The longer you sit, the
better result you can enjoy.

Step 2 Sit straight. Make sure that your spine is vertical to
the floor. This will allow you to keep your spine in good shape
while you are sitting. Since the process of meditation can be
long, the good position will not hurt your spine in the long
run. Do not move if it is not totally necessary. Remember,
meditation is to let your mind think of only one thing. You can
not do that if your body is in movement.

Step 3 Close your eyes. This is to prevent the disturbance from
the environment. Also, closing the eyes allows you to
concentrate in the next step better. Some people will start to
see things when they close their way. This is normal to the
beginner. Notice that but do not be so agitated. Mostly what we
see is the event from the past and it comes back since we are
forcing our mind to focus. This will be difficult for the first
few times but it will be better as your ability to concentrate
is improved.

Step 4 Trace your breathing pattern. When you inhale, you can
count "one". When you exhale, you can count "two". Continue to
do this until you get into your focus. Count one and two
alternately along with your inhale and exhale. After doing this
for awhile, you will feel peace in the process. If you can
achieve that level, you will start to feel unexpectedly calm
happiness.

Step 5 When you can focus. You can move from counting your
breathing to what you want to concentrate. You can add your
visualization into this step. Remember to visualize only what
you want. This will attract your desired circumstances and
attributes according to the "law of attraction".

Meditation can be useful to anyone who want peace in his mind
and wants progress in the communication in yourself. If the
process is combined with visualization, it can attract the
situation to help you achieving your goals.
