learn to meditate

Meditation is quite helpful to me. When you practice concentrating fully on it, it is easier to incorporate it into your day-to-day life, where it is most useful and calming to focus on breath and let the world keep spinning. 16 hours ago

I’ve been BSing this one for years, but I’ve found some good guided meditation MP3s online and have been listening to them daily for a while. It’s very relaxing, even on days when I drift off and ignore what I’m listening to. Now to focus more and eliminate distractions. 1 day ago

I went to first session. It was more than lecture, with some practices in the end. I learned a lot about this kind of yoga and meditation history and other stuff that I didn`t knew.

Men who teach us is really interesting, with great personality, everyone could learn at least something from him. needless to say that there were some things that I didn`t agree with him, but that`s natural.

I was happy to find out that this meditation don`t require to pray for God, or some special person (which photo is in front of you), it`s exactly what I was looking for.

If and as possible I will return till the end of that course to receive as much as possible. 2 weeks ago

I want meditation to be a daily habit and I would like to meditate twice a day everyday. 3 weeks ago

So I’ve been doing the 21 Yoga Journal Challenge so far and have started a 15 meditation practice. So far I’ve gone about 10 days. I listened to 2 guided meditations and on the rest of the days just tried keeping my mind focued on the breath. I’m having a really hard time with this goal, but am hoping to keep it up. It’s not so much the 15 of time, that goes by fast; It’s the thoughts swirling around so much, the sounds I hear, and the physical pain I start feeling after sitting. I get so distracted! I’ll keep it up though, I enjoy it. It makes me really take notice of the present. 3 weeks ago

I stumbled across this on the net and it sounds fab – only thing is, the classes to learn the technique seem really expensive (several hundred pounds for a short course). Does anyone know anything about transcendental (sp?) meditation and is it worth the money? How does it differ from other forms of meditation? 3 weeks ago
