Meditation Series 3 Guided Meditations

Mediation is a valuable way to feel calm, relaxation, release of anxiety, clear mindedness, and understanding your own self energetically, emotionally, and spiritually.

At times, meditating while sitting still and watching the days thoughts float by is almost impossible for some people.  Our minds are too much in motion.  (Monkey chatter or Magpie chatter.)
So to meditate the standard way, no thoughts just sit and focus on nothing, can be really hard.  But you can still meditate!  Have you ever heard of guided meditations?

Meditating with a guided meditation is super easy and is very healing.  This type of meditation is advisable for beginners and anyone else who has trouble with a standard way of meditating.  I've been meditating for at least ten years now and I still will use guided meditations on and off.

Guided meditations are a great way to introduce yourself to sitting quietly and relaxing.  There are many benefits you receive by simply sitting quietly.  Benefits of meditating link by Psychology Today:  https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/feeling-it/201309/20-scientific-reasons-start-meditating-today

Guided meditations tend to be a easier way to meditate because you follow words and you imagine beautiful settings.  Your mind has something "to do" other than trying to release all the day’s events.  Many people have a hard time with sitting still, let alone with a calm inner world in their heads.

To be up in your head (thinking) means you're not in your body/in the present moment.  You're on "auto-pilot."  Being up in your head, you miss out on what is going on in the present moment; feeling emotions from yourself and others, feeling what your senses are feeling/smelling/tasting, not experiencing what you were meant to experience due to being in the past or the future moment. (Which do not exist!  The past is gone.  The future is not created yet.  Being in the present moment is the only place that exists!)  Living your life in your head and in the past or future is not a healthy way to live your life.

I have enjoyed guided meditations from Belleruth Naparstek by Healthjourneys.  She has a series of different meditations that give you "self-help" and general wellness.  A few of them are:  General Wellness, Self-Confidence, Mastering Menopause, Trauma, Panic Attacks, etc.

There are many guided meditations listed on YouTube.  Another guided meditation I have enjoyed is:

It doesn't have to be hard to start meditating.  Just start off slow.  Find a quiet place in your home or outside.  If you're unable to get away to a quiet-private place, try meditating with your earphones on in a calm area.  For example, sitting in the city park by a water fountain.  Try walking slowly through a green area of the city listening to your guided meditation.  Or even use your bath time as a time to meditate with your guided meditation.  I do suggest you do not lay down and meditate.  You will fall asleep.  To receive all the benefits of meditating, you will want to stay awake.

Here is a guided meditation by Belleruth Naparstek to use for Stress Reduction.

I have used all procedures I have written about and have found them to be helpful as tools to help myself become a better person.   I am sharing them with you because used as a tool, they are helpful in Shadow working on ourselves.  (Shadow working is healing our inner shadows that are unconscious or subconscious.  Inner shadows are our belief systems, our thoughts, our behaviors, our life experiences.)

I created this blog for my Reiki clients originally.  Combining these tools with Reiki creates a happy, healthy person.  These tools, when used alone are also beneficial!
