ARE YOU READY TO MEDITATE

This meditation should be done every morning, before eating, for ten minutes, gradually increasing time up to twenty minutes.

This meditation will tend to keep you awake longer so if you decide to do it in evening please do it before your evening meal.

Now that you have decided to meditate, choose a comfortable chair which allows you to sit upright,loosen or remove any tight clothing. If you are extra tense, you can shrug your shoulders, roll your neck and use your favorite body stretches.

1.Inhale a deep breath to count of four and slowly exhale to count of six. Repeat five times.

2.Assume normal breathing.

3.Close your eyelids and focus your eyes upwards to third eye. This is point between eyelashes directly above bridge of nose.

4.Let your chin rest on your chest, head relaxed downward.

5.Let your hands rest easily on your lap, palms turned upwards as a sign of receptivity.

6.Make sure your spine is upright and also have bottom of your feet rest on floor thereby keeping you grounded.

7.Your mantra is word "aum". Mentally repeat this word over and over without moving your lips or tongue.

As you are mentally repeating your mantra "aum - aum - aum", if other thoughts enter just gently push them aside.

By doing this MANTRA Meditation on a daily basis, you will feel inner peace, inner serenity. This inner serenity will glow to such an extent outwardly, your friends man even comment on it.

I cannot repeat this enough, "This meditation is very powerful".

Within thirty days, you yourself will surely notice a lot of little changes, all positive changes and just by doing this "MANTRA Meditation". You will surely notice its "miraculous healing powers awakening within you".

By referring to ourselves as survivors, we keep ourselves locked in grips of abuse. Say these two sentences out loud.. 1. I am an abuse survivor. 2. I have prevailed over an abuser and his attacks against me.

There is a difference in emotions these two sentences invoke. In first sentence, I am an abuse survivor, following is present: 1. The word abuse is given a prominent location in sentence, focusing attention on that word, rather than on survivor. 2. When said aloud, word abuse is given strong accent.. I am an abuse survivor. 3. This sentence defines YOU according to abuse. I am an abuse survivor. This defines you.. meaning you have allowed abuse to define your life. It implies that primary character and life shaping event in your life was being abused. I don't know about you, but while abuse played a part in my character & life development, it falls far from being most important life & character shaping event of my life.

In second sentence, I have prevailed over an abuser and his attacks against me, following is present: 1. The word prevailed is given a prominent location in sentence, focusing attention on that word and what it means, rather than event (the abuser and his attacks). 2. When said aloud, word prevailed is given strong accent.. I have prevailed over an abuser and his attacks against me. This focuses attention on your accomplishment, your reaction to attack - rather than giving attention to abuser and what he did to you. 3. The phrase, "I have prevailed over.." gives yourself and any other listener impression AND THE TRUTH about what happened. You were abused, but you also prevailed over abuser because their goal was complete destruction of you and they failed. 4. This sentence does not define you according to abuse. It's simply a statement about one thing you have accomplished in your life. You prevailed over an abuser an his attacks against you. You are not defined by that event or time period in your life, rather, you have grown from it.

It's possible that some may not believe that way you say things makes a difference.. but, just look at old saying "Is glass half full or half empty?" It is a fact that way you say things affects way you think and way others think. Perception and impression can be changed simply by making a few changes in way you word a sentence.

I do not use my experience with abuse as an excuse for anything I may do. I do not require any person's sympathy. I do not define myself or my life by event of abuse. So, I make sure that words I use to describe that event reflect my feelings.

I have prevailed over an abuser and his attacks against me.
