Meditation

I haven't written in my blog in forever! I still have to update some tidbits from my Texas trip.

Anyway, my horoscope mentioned that today (May 17) I should meditate. Now, it just so happens that recently I read in a book (James Van Praagh's Looking Beyond) about meditating. The way he explained it was that mediatating was really quiet time for yourself, where you feel safe and all bad thoughts and energies disappear from your body. And you're instead, filled with peace and calm. Now if that's what meditating really is then I was meditating the entire Spring and Summer of 2010. And let me just say it was one of the best times in my life.

What I would do was sit in front of my window and listen to music that I loved. My favorite band.. :D whom I love!!!!!!!! I would sit there and feel absolutely safe and serene. It made me excited to hear that that was a form of meditating. I now have awesome memories of looking at beautiful sunsets from last year.

So today I sat and opened the patio door and felt the breeze. I put on some nice relaxing music and closed my eyes and felt the peace take over me. I imagined my self breathing in gold and breathing out gray mist. As if I was taking in all the good and letting out the bad. I would think empowering thoughts to myself. When I was "golden," I would think about things, ask questions to myself. I looked at all the nature. Felt the breeze. And I was at peace. I watched the sunset.. My favorite memories were some of those from last year's "meditating sessions." I hope to meditate more in the future.

Summary: Mediating is awesome and you can personalize it!
Recommendation: James Van Praagh's Looking Beyond. (The book for teens, it's easy reading!) I read it in one night. My mom had borrowed it from the library.
