Meditation
Steps for beginners practitioners
Indian Meditation School at Rishikesh ,Sharing you
techniques to learn Meditation practicing yourself. Here are 10 easy steps to
start meditation.
Most of us wonder about meditation.What is Meditation and how to start
practicing it ? Today you will experience it is not difficult as it appeared in
our first thought. The assumption of thought of sitting silent with your eyes
closed and your mind focused on one thought seems to scare many of us. But
meditation can be really easy. Here are 10 great tips to
get you started on your road to nirvana.
Pick
the time
Meditation is a time to relax and the time you pick
should be entirely yours. It is important that you choose a time when you will
not get disturbed and have the freedom to extend the session if you please. The
best part about picking the time is that you are not anxious about the next
activity you have to do. This not only allows you to relax it also helps deepen
the process of meditation. Practitioners suggest the hours during
either sunrise and sunset, while nature transitions between day and night, is ideal
for the practice.
Silence
please!
A quiet and calm place is of course the best for
meditation. Avoid places where you are likely to be disturbed by your family,
house help or dog/cat. A quiet corner is the best to ease you into a trance,
making your meditation experience more enjoyable and relaxing.
Take
a seat
Your posture makes all the difference. Sit comfortably
and in a place that is steady. Your spine should be erect with your shoulders
and neck relaxed. Make sure you sit on the floor on a rug or mat and keep your
eyes closed throughout meditation process.
Eat
light
Meditation is best done before a meal or with a
half-full stomach (usually two hours after a meal). Trying to meditate after a
heavy meal will only make you sleepy and you will doze off during the process.
A light stomach leads to a more agile mind that has enough energy to focus on
one thing. Your brain is not diverting all its energies towards digesting food
or trying to keep hunger pangs at bay. Also, make sure you do not try to meditate
when you are hungry, you will find it extremely difficult to concentrate.
Warm-up
first
It is best you do a few warm-up exercises before you
get to meditating. This is because warming up the body helps to improve
circulation, reduces restlessness and helps the body feel lighter. Try doing
some light stretching exercises or sukshma yoga
(a short and easy yoga practice that lasts for about seven minutes and is
designed to loosen up the body) before you start.
Breathe
easy
Before you start, it is best to do some deep
breathing. This not only helps oxygenate your body and internal organs, it will
also help you ease into the meditative state better. Try doing breathing
exercises like anulom vilom before
you start. A few minutes should be good enough to prepare you. (Read: Anulom vilom pranayam – beat diabetes, heart disease and high
cholesterol with this yoga asana)
Smile,
it increases your face value
While meditating, make sure you have a gentle smile on
your face. It will help you feel happier, more relaxed and peaceful. That
gentle smile will help you meditate better. Don’t worry about anyone looking at
you or judging you, you are meditating for your own well-being.
Get
some guidance
During the first few times you meditate it might be
difficult to actually focus. The best way is to get some direction by using guided meditation techniques.
These are simple audio files that will instruct you as you meditate. Not only
does this make the process simpler it is also much more enjoyable.
Be
gentle with your eyes
Once you are done with your meditation, don’t be in a
hurry to get back to your routine. Open your eyes slowly and allow yourself to
once again become aware of yourself and your surroundings.
Enjoy
your day
Experts say that meditation is like an instant energy
booster. It enlivens the mind and body helping you stay charged for the rest of
the day. Consider it your mini-vacation.
Finally, according
to Guru ‘Meditation happens, you
can’t do it. You can only create a congenial atmosphere for it to happen.’
