How to Meditate Series

We just completed a new series of articles that cover the many considerations that go into starting a meditation practice on your own. It provides an excellent summary and overview of topics covered in many of our classes and offerings on meditation.

This series covers the foundational techniques of sitting meditation, setting up a meditation routine and setting up a special place for your practice. It offers helpful hints and reasons as to how to make meditation a productive and joyful experience instead of another well-meaning obligation.

Topics covered in the series on meditation include:

• How to Meditate Properly - To know if meditation “speaks to you”, it helps to be introduced to the basic foundations of meditation practice.

• Begin at the Beginning - Successful meditation at every level relies on one’s ability to relax. As obvious as this sounds it is more challenging than it appears at first.

• Best Time to Meditate - To get the most benefit from meditation it’s best to make it a regular daily practice. When is the best time?

• Creating a Meditation Space - Creating a meditation space in your environment is a gift you can give yourself. Tips for creating your sanctuary plus a photo gallery of our facilitator and class participants meditation spaces.

• Obstacles to Meditation - Obstacles to starting and maintaining a daily meditation practice, plus ideas to overcome these obstacles.

• Final Thoughts on Meditation - In the final analysis, meditation is the path that reveals and enlarges our sense of who and what we are, what we can become and how to “get there”.

We hope you find this series on meditation helpful and welcome any feedback or questions.
