Writen by Tempest Owlsbard Meditaion.
I have heard a lot of people saying, "Tempest, I haven't been able to get any time to meditate," or "Ewwe, why would I do that?" or even the dreaded, "How do I do that again?" I don't blame you, some weeks I get no time to meditate either but that doesn't mean we can just slackoff. This phrase isn't mine but it does push the try button, "Anything worth doing is worth doing wrong," so try it you might like it.
First, concentrate on your breaths slowly trying to lengthen the breath, relax your muscules in your toes and slowly work your way up into your foot and into your calves until you come up all the way to your head. Concentrate on your shoulders back and neck a lot of tention is held there. A good way to enhance this process is to visualise dark smoke of tention being expeled on the exhale. For the inhale breathe in a white or blue light that fills the spot you were relaxing. When you are relaxed and calm, become aware of the energy in your body it may feel like heat or cold but for me it is electricity. I want you to experiance this energy inside yourself, feel it grow stronger, feel how it circulates through your body.
Now you are in a basic meditaive receptive state. Start to bring your self out but do this slowly as not to shock your system too much. Ground and center and visualise a cocoon of white light surounding and protecting you from all harm. Make sure that you make it real to you, tell yourself that you are compleatly awake and revitalised. Then, stretch out your body and move around some. Note: choose a time that is conveinant for you to practice every day then do it, it will help you to get rid of all possible distractions; like the cat, phone and screaming kids.
In the receptive state of meditation you can talk with your favorite gods and speak to angels all you have to do is visualise them and call, they will talk and comune with you. While you are talking to that goddess feel their energy but remeber meditation is listening to gods, prayer is talking at them.
About messages that are receiceved as advice, take this as the advice of a freind not an all powerfull deity cause then you give your self room to not believe what they say if it sounds too strange. Some times we project in our minds what we want to hear and that is all we get from them when the real mesage is blured so be self aware of how you feel about the topic.
