Opening the Mind
Now that I’ve been through the eye opening experience of how we are
intentionally being poisoned, I’m moving on. I recently started working on my
soul self, my inner being. That which is sacred.
I started doing Qi Gong in January. I’m finding it to be a challenging way
to grow spiritually. It has brought me to question many of the things I have
been told throughout my life. Most of which I cast aside in 1999, when I began
researching a book I intended to write. What an eye opening experience. That’s
a topic for another day.
I began meditating when I started my Qi Gong practice. I didn’t just begin
to meditate. I spent some time researching what it meant to meditate. Why
should I meditate? What effect would it have? And in particular, what form of
meditation would be best for me.
I can’t tell you what would be best for you, I can only share what I have
learned.
There are many forms of meditation. You might enjoy a guided meditation. Or
maybe you prefer to meditate to the sounds of nature, sound bowls, or music.
You will have to research what’s out there to decide what works best for you. Always do your research.
You can check out an earlier post I wrote while I was exploring meditations.
I found mediation to be a way to get closer to the real me. It wasn’t easy
in the beginning, to focus and get to that place of quiet reflection. Some days
I’d sit in silence and never get there. My mind would start reeling, and I’d
get lost. The important thing is, I didn’t give up. I keep practicing. I think
I will always be a novice when it comes to meditating. Some days I am able to
sit peacefully, and listen. Other days, it’s a challenge. I am still new at it
so we’ll see how it goes.
