Are You One of The 45% Who Will Get Out of The Rat Race THIS YEAR By Using Meditation?

Are you trying to juggle family and career, just to become totally burned out?

Did you work your butt off for years at your job hoping to get a promotion only to see someone else get it?

Maybe you are exhausted by the constant arguments with your spouse and all you want is a loving relationship with him.

It is hard to be in such a situation and you might ask yourself, “How did I get here?”

You could begin to try many of the “standard” methods of reaching your goals of a better career or personal life. The specialists will tell you that these are the “tried and true” ways, taught by the so called “experts”. Every one of them will promise to change your life and that you will be a huge success in no time.

Does this sound familiar?

You read their books and attended their costly seminars.

They will also state that you need to create a plan of action.

This apparently is to keep you on course while trying to figure out what you want.

Regardless of the fact that you don’t really know what your true calling is, you still attempt to “work the system.” Likely, you will find yourself straying from your plan on an almost daily basis. If you get somewhere close to your goal, then you will probably decide that this is good enough “for now” and go do something else.

In the end, it won’t help you all that much and you will easily fall back into your old routines.

Ultimately, you probably will be stuck in your terrible job, your social life will consist of one fight after the other with your spouse and your energy hits rock bottom. This can be very discouraging and you will know that it is not the way you want to live.
You will eventually ask yourself, “There has to be a better way.”

Fortunately, there is an answer in the incredible power of meditation. If you want to begin this experience for yourself right now, try the following:

• Set aside 10 to 15 minutes sometime before you go to bed;
• Find a quiet place with absolutely no distractions;
• Sit in a comfortable position and close your eyes;
• Empty your mind of all your daily concerns by visualizing how you put them in a box next to you and concentrate on your breathing;
• Count yourself down from 5 to 1
• With every breath take all the positive energy in and with every
  breath out let go of all the negative energy
• Take slow deep breaths and systematically relax each part of your body, starting with your head and ending with your feet;
• As your muscles relax you will feel all of the stress flow out and be left with a completely relaxed sensation throughout your body.
• See yourself in a peaceful place like a park, the beach, the forest
  or the mountains. Wherever you’d like to be in this moment.
• Whenever you like count yourself up from 1 to 5

That’s it.

If you do this on a daily basis you will notice that you feel well rested the next day.(Instead of having yet another sleepless night)
You also will find that your mind opens up to new ideas to tackle your issues. Maybe you’ll get an inspiration for a new idea.

This is just the beginning and it doesn’t even scratch the surface of what you can accomplish with meditation!

Meditation 101

cosmic meditation

The state where body and mind are focused and relaxed is referred as meditation.Practitioners of the report increased focus, awareness, and a more positive attitude on life.

Transcendental meditation is most commonly associated with monks, mystics and other spiritual disciplines.  However, you don’t have to be a monk or mystic to enjoy its benefits.  And you don’t even have to be in a special place to practice it.  You could even try it in your own living room!

Although there are many different approaches to meditation, the fundamental principles remain the same.  The most important among these principles is that of removing obstructive, negative, and wandering thoughts and fantasies, and calming the mind with a deep sense of focus.  This clears the mind of debris and prepares it for a higher quality of activity.

The negative thoughts you have – those of noisy neighbors, bossy officemates, that parking ticket you got, and unwanted spam– are said to contribute to the ‘polluting’ of the mind, and shutting them out is allows for the ‘cleansing’ of the mind so that it may focus on deeper, more meaningful thoughts.

Some practitioners even shut out all sensory input – no sights, no sounds, and nothing to touch – and try to detach themselves from the commotion around them.  You may now focus on a deep, profound thought if this is your goal.You will find yourself being more aware of things around you as you continue this exercise.

If you find the tantric meditation positions you see on television threatening – those with impossibly arched backs, and painful-looking contortions – you need not worry.The main thing is to be comfortable location where you will be able to concentrate.  This may be while sitting cross-legged, standing, lying down, and even walking.

If the position allows you to relax and focus, then that would be a good starting point.  While sitting or standing, the back should be straight, but not tense or tight.  In other positions, the only no-no is slouching and falling asleep.

Loose, comfortable clothes help a lot in the process since tight fitting clothes have a tendency to choke you up and make you feel tense.

The place you perform meditation should have a soothing atmosphere.It could be in any location that you're comfortable, be it your bedroom, or living room.  You might want an exercise mat if you plan to take on the more challenging positions (if you feel more focused doing so, and if the contortionist in you is screaming for release).  You may want to have the place arranged so that it is soothing to your senses.

Silence helps most people relax and meditate, so you may want a quiet, isolated area far from the ringing of the phone or the humming of the washing machine.  Pleasing scents also help in that regard, so stocking up on aromatic candles isn’t such a bad idea either.

Studies have shown that meditation does bring about beneficial physiologic effects to the body.The medical community has consensus to study the effects further.  So in the near future, who knows, that mystical, esoteric thing we call meditation might become a science itself!

Meditation Techniques Advantageous

subject of meditation

Many times people will catch snippets of conversation about meditating or hear something about it in the media. But, in many cases, the public in general is not quite sure exactly what meditation practice is and how it might be beneficial in their lives. Often what people think of when they hear someone mention meditation is a group of monks sequestered in a far away monastery. However, these days, it is being practiced more and more among people from all walks of life.

While it is true that the practice of meditation has strong and deep connections to many Eastern cultures and religions, it is also a fact that meditation has been practiced around the world by a wide variety of people of many beliefs. While meditating is something that has been done for thousands and thousands of years in these other areas, it has only been in the last few decades that it has become better known, understood and practiced in the Western world.

Meditation is a practice that anyone, from any walk of life or background, can utilize. It has been very effective in helping people to reduce stress and anxiety, and cope with problems and issues in their daily lives, from simply enjoying a more relaxed and calm day to dealing with a medical crisis.

There are a number of different approaches to the subject of meditation, but they all center on the same basic principles. The first thing people need to do when learning how to meditate is to quiet the mind of the clutter and chatter that is so common in today's life, and increase mindfulness of things that can calm and relax.

Some of the more common ways to meditate that are among the most recognized, are prayer, transcendental meditations, mindfulness meditations, Zen meditations, Taoist meditations, and Buddhist meditations. Some of these meditation techniques require that the body be kept absolutely still, while others incorporate deliberate and controlled movements.

Regardless of the method of meditating, the process leads to a deeper contemplation and reflection of whatever is going on in one's life, helping to bring those things that are most important to the surface. In this way, meditating can help to open the way for spiritual development and spiritual enlightenment because it is an effective way of allowing the mind to focus on the inner aspects of life and tune out the distractions of daily tasks and demands.

There are a number of different healing benefits that have been reported throughout the years. The benefits are most often seen by those who choose to make meditating a regular practice that is incorporated into their daily lives. Many have reported that their meditations have brought about healing in the physical body, the spirit, the emotions and the mind.

A few of the most commonly reported health benefits from meditation include the reduction of blood pressure levels, a lower resting heart rate, better circulation and oxygenation, better breathing and improved sleep patterns. Many people have also said that they feel more energetic, and that people comment to them that their skin and overall appearance seems younger.

What can make me fall a sleep easier ?

Here are some suggestions to help you sleep.

A glass of warm milk can quickly put someone to sleep.

A well used and healthy body has very little trouble sleeping. If you have followed all the tips for getting enough sleep — sleeping on a regular schedule, avoiding caffeine and daytime naps, exercising regularly, and managing stress.  Then you will probably only have trouble falling asleep occasionally.

• Make sure your bed is comfortable. Different types of mattresses help with different issues. Some mattresses are made to accommo¬date different type’s bedmates’ sleeping habits and comfort levels. Others are made to adjust to your firmness preferences. In addition, try therapeutic-shaped foam pillows that cradle your neck or extra pillows that help you sleep on your side. Make sure your sheets are com¬fortable and clean.

• Ensure your bedroom remains primarily a place for sleeping. Don’t use your bed for paying bills, doing work, etc. Help your body recognize that this is a place for rest or intimacy.

• Keep your bedroom peaceful and comfortable. Make sure your room is well ventilated and the temperature is consistent, and try to keep it quiet. If you have a problem with out¬side noise, a fan or a “white noise” machine can help block it out.

• Hide your clock. A big, illuminated digital clock may cause you to focus on the time and make you feel stressed and anxious. Place your clock so you can’t see the time when you are in bed.

• Do not nap during the day. If you are having trouble sleeping at night, try not to nap during the day. If you are feeling especially tired and feel as if you absolutely must nap, be sure to sleep for less than 30 minutes, early in the day.

• Limit caffeine and alcohol. Avoid drinking caffeinated or alcoholic beverages for several hours before bedtime.

• Don’t smoke. Nicotine is a stimulant and can make it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep.

• Expose yourself to bright light/sunlight soon after awakening. This will help to regulate your body’s natural biological clock. Likewise, try to keep your bedroom dark while you are sleeping so that the light will not interfere with your rest.

• Exercise early in the day. Twenty to thirty minutes of exercise every day can help you sleep, but be sure to exercise in the morning or afternoon. Exercise stimulates the body and aerobic activity before bedtime may make falling asleep more difficult.

• Check your iron level. Iron deficient women tend to have more problems sleeping, so if your blood is iron poor, a supplement might help you sleep

But the best suggestion comes from our mothers; a glass of warm milk will always help put you to sleep.

 

 

Overcome sleeplessness

There are many tips to help overcome insomnia.

There are 80 different sleep disorders of which the most common is insomnia.  Insomnia may mean you have a hard time going to sleep or that you have a hard time staying asleep. Usually, you will know if you are experiencing insomnia because you will remember tossing and turning or being awake at night.

The following habits and conditions are risk factors for developing insomnia:

• Poor sleep environment (e.g., too noisy, too brightly lit, too hot, or too cold)
• Excessive use of caffeine, alcohol, or certain medications and drugs
• Smoking or chewing tobacco
• Illness
• Obesity
• Anxiety, depression, or another mood disorder
• Stress, such as the death of a loved one or job pressure
• Unhealthy or irregular sleep routine
• Early or late-night bedtimes
• Traveling between time zones
• Daytime napping
• Shift work with a rotating schedule

Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by an inability to sleep and/or inability to remain asleep for a reasonable period. Insomniacs typically complain of being unable to close their eyes or “rest their mind” for more than a few minutes at a time.

Insomnia can be caused by fear, stress, anxiety, medications, herbs, caffeine, depression, or other mental conditions and sometimes occurs for no apparent reason. An overactive mind or physical pain may also be causes. Finding the underlying cause of insomnia is usually necessary to cure it. But there are tips for helping with insomnia while you are working on curing it.

Behavioral Treatments for Insomnia:
Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) - This relaxation technique is practiced by tensing certain muscle groups and then totally relaxing them.

Autogenic training - A relaxation method that calls for an individual to repeat a set of visualizations to induce a state of relaxation.

Meditation - Concentration on an object of thought or awareness that can calm and relax the body and mind.

Stress management - Being aware of and managing the amount of stress in your life can allow you to more easily relax at night when it’s time to sleep.

Stimulus control - Stimulus Control therapy reassociates the bed and bedroom with sleeping by limiting the amount of time spent in the bedroom for non-sleep activities.

Diet management - Reducing the use of stimulants and depressants and avoiding big meals just before bed can help reduce the risk of insomnia episodes.

Acupuncture, acupressure, and massage - These alternative treatments can have an extremely calming effect on your nervous system.

Medicinal Treatments for Insomnia:
Benzodiazepines - The most commonly-used class of drugs prescribed for insomnia includes drugs such as temazepam, diazepam, lorazepam, and midazolam.

Non-benzodiazepine prescription drugs - New drugs such as Ambien and Lunesta. These drugs have a cleaner side effect profile than benzodiazepines but do appear to cause psychological dependence and physical dependence.

Melatonin - A hormone that has proved effective for some insomniacs in regulating the sleep/waking cycle.

Over-the-counter sleep aids - Many of these sleep aids use the antihistamine diphenhydramine. The effectiveness of these aids often decreases over time and next-day sedation is common.

These methods will only help with insomnia while you and your medical professional are working on finding the primary problems so as to find a cure.

 

 

 

Centerpointe Holosync Meditation System

Centerpointe's Holosync meditation system is produced as a number of sets of especially encoded CDs that need to be listened to with headphones and should be used every day for upwards of 30 minutes.

The CDs are produced in sets of 4 and naturally come with complete listening instructions and support. The lower levels of Centerpointe are usually finished within 3 to 6 months but the deeper levels (called Purification and Flowering) can take a year or more to complete each level.

The Holosync system plays binaural beats (sometimes called binaural tones). It plays a marginally different beat into each of your ears, which is why the system requires you to wear stereo headphones.

The beats are disguised by the soothing sound of rainfall. A few of the tracks also play tolling bells.

The Centerpointe CDs have two half hour tracks. When you move on to each CD, you'll listen to the first track for the first few sessions to allow your brain to adjust.

The binaural beats are deceptively simple. Your brain is slightly confused by the two different tones and does its best to make them sound the same. As this happens, your brain begins a reorganization process. Quite often the CDs will allow things in you to release themselves, and when you welcome this, you'll begin to notice profound changes occurring.

Once you've got past the first set of Centerpointe Holosync CDs, you can personalize any future sets. This is done by phoning a special number and you read out your chosen affirmations (you're given some suggested wordings or you can create your own). The next batch of CDs you receive will have these affirmations recorded as silent subliminals, as well as the regular binaural beats.

By their very nature, you won't consciously hear these silent subliminals but they'll be received loud and clear by your brain - as though they were normal speech.

Which means that as you progress through the Centerpointe Holosync levels, you'll get progressively deeper and deeper meditations and more benefits.

Meditation for Beginners: Simple Ways To Start Meditation

None of us is born an expert and meditation is no exception. If you're just starting to meditate, here are some useful tips.

1. Don't panic about whether you're meditating "right" or not

If you follow the instructions for your meditation session then there's a high chance you're meditating right. The main idea of meditation is to help you relax. So don't wind yourself up worrying about whether or not you're meditating correctly! There's a very high likelihood that you're fine. And even if you didn't get something quite "right" then, really, who cares? It's not as though you've just completed an examination. Chill out and have some fun for a change.

2. Try out a variety of meditation methods

We're all different. Which means that not everyone will get along with the exact same meditation technique. There's also a good chance that if your target isn't the same, another method could work better. Most times, I'll personally use a binaural beats meditation because that's the fastest way I've found to reach a deep meditation state and with next to no effort on my part. I guess you could call me lazy in that respect. But if I want to work on healing a part of my body - maybe my eyes are sore or I've got a headache - then a guided meditation would be my choice. And if I want to manifest abundance into my life, I'll probably play a Cosmic Ordering track. So feel free to experiment and see what works best for you.

3. Make meditation a habit

It's generally thought that we need to do something for at least 14 days before it becomes habitual. So if you're serious about meditating, diarize with yourself that you're going to meditate on a daily basis for at least 14 days. Choose a time slot where it's unusual for you to be doing anything. A lot of people meditate as soon as they wake up because everything else that happens in the day doesn't get a chance to get in the way. Other people just pick a good time of day and go with it - maybe while their partner is watching the news on television.

Whichever meditation technique you choose and whenever you decide to practice it, it's important to start! Otherwise you'll never know how much you can benefit from regular meditation.
