Preparing for Deep Meditation

Before starting meditation, it is crucial to prepare a suitable environment:

• Quiet Location: Choose a quiet space, where you will not be interrupted. See here tips for setting up your Meditation space.
• Comfortable Posture: Sit with your spine straight, either on the floor or in a chair, and keep your hands relaxed. You can even meditate lying down, but it may not be very productive for those who want to do Deep Meditation, because the mind can naturally lead you to fall asleep.
• Disconnection: Turn off cell phones and devices that can distract and disturb your concentration while meditating. Avoid leaving incense, flames or any other element that could cause some type of accident or take away your concentration

Deep Meditation Techniques

To enter a state of deep meditation, consider the following techniques:

1. Conscious Breathing: Focus on your breathing, observing the air going in and out of your lungs. Take at least 7 deep, long breaths.
2. Draw a focus: determine what your mental focus will be during meditation, and then try to maintain it, that is the challenge.
3. Thought Observation: Allow your thoughts to flow freely without judgment or interaction.
4. Ignore the discomforts: back pain, numb legs or a racing head… Ignore all of this and just keep meditating.
5. Meditate without fighting: without expecting anything, without wanting anything. With time and habit, you will reap the rewards. Believe and persist.

Guided Meditation
