Spiritual Butterflies

How does one mediate? All of us at readingsbyjody.com get asked daily to help with psychic development and one of the many questions when it comes to psychic development is about meditation. Meditation has more benefits then psychic development as well. It calms the physical body therefore releasing us from day to day stress. A simple 10-15 minute a day meditation can release stress as well as finding inner peace and balance. Meditation can also help us understand our own minds as well. We can learn to transform our mind from negative to positive, from hectic to peaceful, and from unhappy to happy. The purpose of meditation is to make our mind calm and peaceful. if the mind is at peace it only makes sense the body and spirit will follow.

Breathing is a very important piece of the meditation process, focus on your breathing, keeping it slow and calm. When starting any meditation by doing a simple breathe in to the count of four through your nose and out to the count of four through your mouth, keep doing this breathing technique, the rest will follow.

Way before you begin your mediation process you should make yourself a personal space, sometimes this is not always possible with families and the size of ones living quarters. By taking time out for a simple ten minutes as stated above to quiet your mind will refresh and rejuvenate you. Now, lets get back to the part if you do have the time and the space to make yourself a meditation place. First you want to pick a quiet calm spot, someplace comfortable ( do not lie down you will fall asleep each and every time) a corner is fine, get pillows and make a sitting spot on the floor for yourself. Just make sure your comfortable, Next scents are also important, something calming like lavender and jasmine, you can pick and candle or scented oil which suits you. Music helps as well. Nothing with words though, I use nature music, sounds of water falls help with my mediation. Again this is a personal choice, some people also like drumming music. Make this your sanctuary, add crystals if you have them, anything that feels calming and personal to you can be added. There is no set number of things to make your own personal space.

Next make yourself as comfortable as possible, sitting up, eyes closed,hands rested on your lap, and do your breathing techniques as discussed earlier. Deep breath in through your nose to the count of four and out to the count of four, you will feel your body relaxing as you do this, If your having a hard time clearing your mind of images of things you need to do, have done during the day, picture in your minds eye a candle flame, stay focused on that. If your mind draws back to daily things, draw it back to the flame but continue on your breathing. Most important don’t force yourself, the more you do this the easier it gets. You do not need to take yourself anywhere, visit other places just relax and breath, clear mind and breath. As time goes on  then you can invite your Angels, Guides and Loved ones to join you, but to begin the important thing is breathing, relaxing the body and the mind.

This is a process and may not happen the first or the tenth time you do this. Meditation is not complicated, dont over think it, allow yourself to be in the moment and listen with your heart. Practice for a few times, even 5-10 minutes a day will show you results.

Enjoy the peacefulness that a meditation can bring you, in the following forums I will show you a few meditations you can use to connect with your angels, guides and even loved ones crossed, but for the moment, take a deep breath and just enjoy the peace.
