Guided Meditation
Why would someone choose to meditate? For the same reason one would choose to drink water. Water restores what is needed and flushes toxins from the body. Meditation restores what is needed and flushes toxins from the psyche. Human problems distill down to two things: fear of separation from Source and fear of separation from one another. Therefore, all human problems can be solved by focusing on Love and Trust, knowing that there is no separation from Source and there is no separation from one another.
Allow the light to shine in both directions. Focus on Love and Trust. These beliefs and behaviors ameliorate situations. Sanctify the inner vessel, transform the outer appearance.
What we are doing in meditation, quite simply, is creating a clean slate on which to work. It's easier to do math problems with a clean slate, easier to make a meal with a clean counter. As we become more interested in what is infinite and eternal and less interested in the human mind and its vicissitudes, we are clearing the clouded glass that is our human being. The clearer the glass, the more light that can penetrate it, in both directions.
In a modern world that values activity, achievements and results, it is perhaps surprising that more people are turning to meditation. For all the activity of modern society, many still feel a fundamental need for silence, inner peace, and a moment of reflection. Meditation can reduce stress and help us relax; but, it can also give us a lot more. These are some of the benefits that daily meditation can give us.
Reduced Stress Meditation helps to reduce stress by teaching us to switch off from the worries that can plague us through the day. Meditation is an opportunity to spend time by ourselves, without feeling at the beck and call of others. Spending 15 minutes in quietening the mind and focusing on the present moment, makes us more relaxed and effective decision makers. Health Benefits Numerous studies have shown that meditation has health benefits.
