If you don’t meditate, you’re missing out on a scientifically proven way to relieve stress, calm your mind, and to experience a general sense of peace and happiness. It’s not only easy, but it doesn’t cost anything to do. Plus, you can do it in the privacy of your own home.

WHAT IS MEDITATION?

Simply put, meditation is sitting still and quieting your mind. It is the act of being totally present with “what is,” without making mental commentary. When you meditate, you are in your most pristine, natural state of being. In other words, your mind is quiet and you are “just being.”

Think of meditating as the freedom to “just be.” There’s no pressure. There are no deadlines. And while there are a lot of different styles of meditation, there’s really no right or wrong way to do it. You are simply in a calming, peaceful “state of being.” I believe that when you are in this quiet state of mind, you are a human being, instead of a human doing….

While you’ll find that meditation is peaceful, it’s not exactly peace of mind. However, meditation is freedom from the mind. By that, I mean that during meditation, your mind will be free from your egoic thoughts or mental commentaries. The egoic mind gets conditioned to build up a sort of wall around who you are. Meditation breaks down that wall, so that the mental commentary (mind chatter) isn’t there. Meditation allows you to say, “Who am I if I am not these thoughts?” This is the most important question on the planet. And it’s through meditation that you can ask that all-important question and to go into yourself for true self-discovery.

You see, when you are meditating, you are thought-free, and you lose the sense of fear and desire. If you’re in a state of fearing something, then you are in a state of wanting something.

I won’t go into too much detail about this topic, because I discuss it at length in my e-book, Living a Peaceful Life . If you haven’t already read this e-book, I recommend that you do so before continuing. That way you will more fully understand what I mean by terms like “fear and desire,” accepting “what is” and many other references I’m using here.

So, let’s assume you’ve already covered the basics and move on.
