How to use the meditations in this blog

Hi it's me again. This time I want to give you some tips for getting started with the meditations in this blog. They are as follows:

1. Decide that you want to do it.

2. Give your conscious mind and body permission to relax.

3. Physical release and mental tranquility: (these things have alrady been covered in my book Healing From Withn).

4. Use relaxing images in order to deepen and maintain the feeling of relaxation

5. Use positive self talk and affirmations. (This was also covered in Healing From Within

6. Practice regularly-preferably every day.

7. Read the meditatio several times. Alternitively you could either make a tape of it or have someone read it to you. The person who's reading it to you should read it slowly enough in order to give you enough time to absorb the suggestions. In addition, it should be read to you in a soft voice in order to aid in relaxation.

8. As you practice the guided meditations, try to include as many details and use as many of your senses as possible.

9. If smeone or something interrupts your meditation, just go back to where you've left off. If your mind starts to wander, don't resist it. Acknowledge your thoughts as they pass by, but don't force them away. If negitive feelings should surface, just acknowledge them and continue with the meditation. If they're still bothersome, allow them to surface and examine them. (This is a great way to examine yur feelings and let go of emotional blocks).

10. Feel free to edit and select the meditations in order to meet your needs. Also feel free to change the words and images if you want.Not everyone reacts equally well to the same meditations. The main thing here is that the meditations that you choose make you feel good and positive inside.

Well, that's all the tips for using the meditations in ths blog. in a couple of days I'll give you your first meditation.
