As I said previously, the first step and the best way to start meditating is to quiet your mind. Sounds simple enough and all you need to do is ...



You just simply tell your self that ?I will have no thoughts in my head for the next ? minutes?.

As simple as that. Now don't be alarmed, this is not a con job or a trick. That is all you have to do. There is one problem ?

Your mind, or to be precise, your conscious mind. It doesn't want you to stop thinking. It lives in today's world of high stress and mental activity. So when you tell your mind to be quiet and calm, it will ?.

Explode

Not literally, but it will explode with activity. You will start to notice you think constantly and shutting off isn't that easy to do.

If you can shut off and your mind is completely still and quiet, you have a calm and clear mind. Then learn to meditate deeper with the many numerous techniques out there.

If you are like most of the world, your mind will be chaotic and hectic. So what do you do?

Don't chase the thoughts away, just let them happen. Watch them and observe them. Let them occur as much as they want.

Your mind will naturally calm and quieter. It is just a matter of time. The more time it takes the more hectic your mind has become. But eventually your conscious mind will give up and peace, calm and quiet will occur in your mind.

Time you have, and it may take weeks before you will notice you will have a gap between t=your thoughts. That gap will increase and get larger. It may start as a split second, and then becomes a few seconds and eventually you will have minutes between your thought.

Once that occurs you are able to quiet your mind, sit in peace and calm. This is meditating. You can drive your car in this state, you are still aware of the cars and people around you. You are just calm, relaxed, energized and your health is improving as a result.

Then you can move on to meditating for a purpose. Where you use meditation techniques to activate the qualities you desire from your mind.

Meditating is easy, once you have your quiet mind, then the world is at your feet. You can add to your meditation experience by using affirmations, Mudra (hand yoga) and other techniques to gain further benefits.

Meditating is an ideal way to start your stress relief process. It doesn't need to take hours out of your day. You can meditate for just a few minutes while walking ... just making your mind quiet. Meditating is and always will be a simple process that just starts with creating a quiet mind. This is meditating made easy.

All you need to do know is make meditation part of your daily stress relief routine. You can be meditating in just minutes from now!
