End: Inhale deeply, hold your breath and visualize the person you want to send healing to (it can be yourself). Make that image in your mind very clear and see a glowing green light around the person. Keeping that person in your mind, exhale. Inhale deeply, hold your breath and continue to send the person healing green light. Still keeping that vision in your mind, exhale. For the last time, inhale deeply, hold your breath and see the person very clearly, see the green healing light bathing the person, bathing every cell in the body. Exhale and relax.

Minutes:

3 minutes of meditation affects the electromagnetic field (aura) as well as the circulation and stability of blood.

11 minutes of meditation begins to change the nerves and the glandular system.

22 minutes of meditation balances the 3 minds - Positive, Negative and Neutral - and they begin to work together

31 minutes of meditation allows glands,breath and concentration to affect all cells and rhythms of the body. It lets the psyche of the meditation affect the 31 Gunas, all 31 tattvas and all layers of the mind's projections.

62 minutes of meditation changes grey matter in the brain. The subconscious "shadow mind" and the outer projection are integrated.

2 1/2 hours of meditation changes the psyche in its correlation with the surrounding magnetic field so that the subconscious mind is held firmly in the new pattern by the surrounding universal mind.

Days:

40 Days - It takes 40 days to change a habit. A 40 day meditation provokes the subconscious to let go of old habits of thought and emotion that hinder you.

90 Days - It takes 90 days to confirm the habit.

120 Days - In 120 days the new habit is who you are

1000 Days - In 1000 days you have mastered the new habit.

As taught by Yogi Bhajan.

"When a musical instrument is out of tune, it creates discord. Similarly when human beings are out of harmony with the divine order of things, we draw disharmony and disunity to us. Swimming against the tide, we exhaust ourselves but get nowhere. To keep yourself in tune and find your own note within the rhythm of life, you have to learn the art of vibrating the word. The more you vibrate the word, the more clearly you can reflect on the qualities of your soul. In turn, you will find that you are in harmony with yourself, and that internal harmony will be project into your life. Once you are in tune with life, life flows smoothly. You do everything at the right time and everything falls perfectly into place. All you have to do is vibrate the word so as to find your direct contact with the creator. Then keep sounding your particular note loud and clear and take your place within the vast orchestra of life. Miracle upon miracle will come about and this way of living will become normal because you are in tune with God through the power of the Word."
—Joseph Michael Levry, "The Code of the Masters"

Week 2 and 3 - Sound Bath Meditations

The Science of Naad Yoga - The yoga of Sound

Naad is the essence of all sound. In Naad yoga, sound is used as a teacher. It is a "quantum" use of sound, because it manipulates the smallest particles of sound and energy, and focuses them to achieve the primary goals of yoga. Balance, energy, vitality and the transformation of energy into fine consciousness. We learn in Naad Yoga, that sound in itself is capable of awakening deep states of mystical consciousness that lead to healing and spiritual transformation. This works, miraculously with a gentle steady sound, not brash and loud.

How do we utilise sound for this purpose? A mantra is a sonic tool that we use for directing sound. We use mantras to work through and cut away at old patterns, like a sculptor chipping away at all that is extraneous in order to reveal the inner self, the true self. When we sing mantras, we use yoga of the tongue. There are 84 meridian points located on the roof of the mouth. The movement of the tongue, during mantras, stimulates these meridian points and therefore stimulates the secretion of neurotransmission fluids.

Repetition, pulse and timing is key to a successful mantra. It is a very good way of meditating, as any distractions of the mind are eroded by the continual sound.

Try a mantra next time you meditate.

Grounding - Week 1

We start this 5 week meditation course with the theme of Grounding.

The practise of grounding yourself is an essential component to a healthy lifestyle. The process of grounding helps to connect your body's energy to the energy field of the earth. Our body has an electrical circuit running through it, which is directly linked to the earth and also to the sky. Feet are the negative pole of the body. When we are grounded energy flows through our body, into the earth and vital energy from the earth flows up into our body. Through meditation one can find a deep state of groundedness. Using the tree root meditation, helps bring your awareness into the now, not the past or future. It helps one to develop a strong sense of being.

When we are grounded and relaxed, we know what to do in each moment without needing to think about it.

Being Ungrounded

You may feel as if you are not your normal self. You may feel 'spaced out' or 'with the fairies'. You may also feel highly sensitive and moody, where problems in your life seem to build out of proportion. Thinking too much, where energy is rising to the head, is a very common occurrence in our society. We are constantly performing mental, intellectual activities in our jobs and professions, taking us away from that grounded, rooted feeling.
Most people have experienced some trauma in their life. This can cause 'soul loss', where part of our energy is no longer in our body but stuck in a past event that we haven't come to terms with. This will cause us to be ungrounded and not in present time.

Sound Bath Meditation
We will explore grounding through sound meditation. Using instruments, we will be guided into a place of rootedness, where, from the void, we ground our being.
When grounded, creative energy flows through our bodies, like electricity.

Other ways of Grounding....

Take off your shoes and walk on the Earth.
Eat lots of root vegetables, slowly.
Hold the crystal Obsidian or Smokey Quartz.
Walk in the woods, nature, and let the wind blow around you.
Stamp your feet, dance.
Sing a deep sound.
