Meditation is not what you think
The science of yoga are many types of applications, from postures, breathing exercises and meditation techniques, and Guidlines for mental and physical health. Meditation is technically a single level of practice. The steps are:
Asana (physical and covers the body)pranayama (breathing exercises to control the life force)
Pratyahara (withdrawal of sensory knowledge of the outside world and body)
Dharana (concentration)
Dhyana (meditation – the origin of the word “Zen” – the experience of silence or ongoing)
Samadhi (a state of complete absorption, beyond all ego-identification).
Another method of meditation, often associated with various Buddhist traditions, mindfulness meditation. In mindfulness meditation, the idea of the silent witnesses of the body, mind and emotions will be. Look at what comes in your conscience – it was the sound of a automobile outside, memories, what you did yesterday, plans or wishes, random images, fantasy, ideas and thoughts in all their forms, sensations in the body and especially the breath. The concentration on breathing is general to many types of meditation, yoga, including meditation. Breathing is the key that unlocks the deeper says of consciousness, energy and solve the stress and repressed emotions tied up and rejuvenates the body. Apnea a present yet.
The different types of people need different types of meditation. Try different traditions. I advocate, to learn from an experienced teacher with a solid tradition behind them. If you want to begin now, then sit and practice, given the lower back and spine straight. Breathe slowly and deeply – through the nose, both inside and outside. Breathe through your belly (not chest) if you are able. This might be the practice to develop this natural way of breathing.
Now, without trial or analysis to relax the body, focusing on breathing, and watch your thoughts and feelings with distance, acceptance and compassion. Count your breath (and in one breath). Graf mentally. See how many breaths you can count on to begin before you forget and dreams. If you forget to count, then just gently bring your awareness back to breath and start counting again. If you count 10 breaths slow, you are a very good begin. If not, just keep practicing. Meditation is an exercise for a lifetime and bring you more and more deeply in the consciousness itself, and without limits and peace.
