Meditation in 12 Steps
The Place Set aside a special place for meditation - the atmosphere you build up will help still the mind.
The Time Choose a time when your mind is free of everyday concerns - dawn and dusk are ideal.
The Habit Using the same time and place each day conditions the mind to slow down more quickly.
The Posture Sit with your back, neck and head in a straight line, facing north or east.
The Breath Regulate your breathing - start with a minute of deep breathing, then slow it down. Establish a rhythmic breathing pattern - inhaling then exhaling for about three seconds.
The Mind Instruct your mind to remain quite for the duration of your meditation session.
The Focal Point Now bring the mind to rest on the focal point of your choice - either the Ajna Chakra (the point between your eyebrows) or the Anahata Chakra (in the middle of your chest)
The Object Choose an object of concentration such as a mantra, a positive quality like love or compassion, or any symbol of an uplifting nature. Hold your object of concentration at your chosen focal point throughout your session.
Giving Space Give your mind some space. Allow it to wander at first. It will jump around, but will eventually settle down into concentration as your breathing becomes more rhythmic.
Disassociating If the mind persists in wandering, simply disassociate from it, and watch it objectively, as though you were watching a film.
Pure Thought Meditation comes when you reach a state of pure thought, but still retain your awareness of duality.
Samadhi After long practice, duality disappears and Samadhi, the superconscious state, is attained.
