This Is For ALL Beginners -- A Guided Meditation
I know I have talked about alternative therapies in previous posts and meditation is one type that has really helped me.
It has helped me to lower my pain levels by learning to quiet my mind, to be calm & de-stress and have a more postive mind-set.
This is a good beginning video/audio which should help those who have never attempted to meditate AND is also good for those of you who already do.
I know I enjoyed it and I plan on posting more videos that I like and feel will be helpful to you also.
It is best used with headphones, laying on your bed in a quiet, darkened room.
*I also use aromatherapy when I meditate, either with candles or a scented lotion*
*Don't be discouraged if you don't 'feel' anything or any better the first time or maybe even the first couple of times...
The Biggest factor in Meditation is.... your mind-set.
You have to BELIEVE it is going to help you - KNOW (tell yourself) that it IS going to work!
=D

The BEST 10 Reasons You Should Meditate!
Many of you have heard me talk about the importance of the Mind-Body connection.
This has been a tremendous influence in my finding solutions that work for me, ie: dealing with my chronic pain. And one of the most helpful mind-body therapies that I have tried IS Meditation.
At first I didn't think I'd be able to do it... OR that it would even be of any help to me!
BUT - before you begin to attempt meditation, you MUST have the right mind-set.
**This IS Crucial**
You need to BELIEVE that it WILL Help You & WILLWork FOR You!
THAT is the biggest obstacle most people run into and will have "making it" work for them.
Soooo, Keep an open mind and tell yourself - ok, now this works for millions of people all over the world. And there is absolutely no reason why it won't work for me and be of help to me.
As a matter of fact, I KNOW that it WILL work FOR me!
(And keep telling yourself that, Always have that "positive attitude" in the back of your mind!)
Here are the best 10 reasons you should be meditating - and to read about them in detail please follow the LINK below to her page!
