Effortless Meditation

How to make things softer, more effortless, and understandable? Really how?

Open your heart. How? Open Heart Meditation is a natural practice to cleanse negative emotions from our spiritual heart, relieve anxiety, reduce stress, and help us to feel calmer, more peaceful, and joyful in our daily life. This beautiful and straightforward meditation brings significant benefits by opening our spiritual hearts.

Let me tell you an old story. Once upon a time, a father and seven-year-old son walked along the river and reached a vast sweet water leak. Father said: son, let's rest here over this rock. So he took off his back Pak and took out a cup and bag of salt.

Then he looked at his son and said, "Let me teach you how to open your heart to the world. Son asks: father, how?

Father pure the salt over half of the cup, then filled it with water, mixed it, and gave it to son. Ask him to drink it. Son with hesitant Durant a little, and the taste was horrible, and he almost threw up.

Father said, ok, enough, then took another cup fill it with salt, and threw it into the lake. Then fill the cup with lake water and give it to son. He drank it. It was sweet and much better taste than the first one.

Father said, " Son, I want you to open your heart as wide and deep as this lake. Salt is negative thinking, doubt, unhappiness, hate, anxiety, and anger in this example. Water is you and your heart. If your mind expands and your heart wide open, all of this salt ( meaning unwatered feeling, anxiety, anger ) will not affect you. So be like a lake-wide and deep.

I wish all of you to be the lake, take it easy, live in the moment, accept the reality as it is, and know you are a good human being, and all of us are progressing each day. I hope your Christmas is filled with joy and laughter this year.

The body scan is one of the most effective ways to begin a mindfulness meditation. The purpose is to tune in to your body, reconnect to your physical self—and notice any sensations you're feeling without judgment. While many people find the body scan relaxing, relaxation is not the primary goal. 

I wish you a Happy New Year with blessings and much success. Just remember: No one can go back in time to change what has happened, so work on your present to make yourself a fantastic future. Thank you for your support and feedback. 

Greeting, My friends welcome back. Glad to be with you. It is an honor to be with you and sit with you to do this mediation.

Align your body and mind.

Allow me to welcome you to your inner Awesomeness.

You have all you need.

It lies within, just below the surface of your skin, and on the other side of your limiting beliefs.

Right here, waiting for you to remember who you are.

Inner Awesomeness has two key elements,

Acceptance and Courage

Magic of acceptance start when you accept reality with all beauty and ugliness. When you take the responsibility of being you, you get to reside in the present time and not the past time or future.

The magic of courage is to face the demons, stop resisting, stop running away. Courage is the act of surfing. First, you meet the wave head to head Till you pass through the waves, and finally, you ride them back to shore, you practice till you can handle huge waves, and you dance over them.

War is Mara. Troubling emotions is Mara. Greed, Hatred, and Delusion are Mara. We can say, “I see you, Mara,” when this feeling comes to us. Recognizing and accepting Mara will create an opportunity to convert these feelings to love and compassion. Mara is real; we all have witnessed it in our lives through history. Dealing with Mara is to understand it. Pay attention and have the intention to have a conversation with Mara. I invite you to listen to this poem from Margot Bickel, which I think is a perfect conversation with Mara. Remember, Never run away from Mara. 

How many times did you hope

and lay a trap

to grasp at a loving word

a caress

or a hearing ear?

How many times bare

did you find your trap?

Don't give up

get ready to spread the trap

over 'n' over.

The purpose of mindful breathing is to anchor yourself in the present moment, so you can let go of worrying about the past or the future. Conscious breathing has been shown to reduce anxiety, help with burnout, provide certain types of pain relief, and decrease negative thinking.

Deep breathing slows your heart rate, allows the body to take in more oxygen, and ultimately signals the brain to wind down. It also balances your hormones- lowering cortisol levels and increasing the endorphin rush in the body. 

Breath-work helps put the brakes on acute stress response and diverts the health problems associated with chronic stress. By eliciting the body's relaxation response, deep abdominal breathing helps reduce blood pressure.

Thank you for your feedback, suggestions, and support.

 Meditation may help you sleep better. As a relaxation technique, it can quiet the mind and body while enhancing inner peace. When done before bedtime, meditation may help reduce insomnia and sleep troubles by promoting overall calmness. Today we use sleep visualization in this meditation to relax and fall asleep faster. As you know, sleep is involved in the healing and repair of your heart and blood vessels. Ongoing sleep deficiency is linked to an increased risk of heart disease, kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and stroke. Meditation before bed help many people, so you may like to try that.

Shower meditation is mind cleansing. It is a practice of using the water as a mechanism to wash away the stress, tension, and anxiety within your body.  Mindfulness in the shower is important so you can take a beat during your regular self-care routine. You let your mind wander, go completely into autopilot, or just shut down mentally. Instead, you can use this time to work on your mindfulness practice. Make your shower time a cleansing ritual for the body and the mind, using the prompts in this exercise. You can practice with any or all of your senses in the shower, but you will focus primarily on the physical body for this practice.

Welcome, back my friends. I am so happy to be with you today and doing this meditation together. Today's meditation title is Let it go.

Letting go is the essence of mindfulness meditation. Thoughts, emotions, ideas, opinions, beliefs, emotions, sensations are all to be observed, explored, and then let go. This can be a difficult part of mindful living.

The only way you can let go is by not engaging with anything that is going on in your mind, which means anything that you feel and anything you think about what you feel. So you allow it all to pass by without getting involved at all simply.

This guided meditation helps you let go of things, people, and circumstances causing anxiety and unhappiness in your life. You can let go of trying to anticipate the future, control the present, and reason with the past through powerful visualization.

I know my friend, Letting Go In Meditation Isn’t As Easy As It Sounds, but we can do it with meditation practice. 

When was the last time you engaged all of your senses while eating?

For this meditation, I invite you to bring a piece of fruit or bowl of food and place it in front of you. We can be sitting on the ground, crossed legs lotus position, or at the table for this practice. Focus all of your attention on the food in front of you.

Being mindful of the food you eat can promote better digestion, keep you full with less food, and influence wiser choices about what you eat in the future. It can also help you free yourself from unhealthy habits around food and eating. Mindful eating, paying attention to our food, on purpose, moment by moment, without judgment, is an approach to food that focuses on individuals' sensual awareness of the food and their experience of the food. It has little to do with calories, carbohydrates, fat, or protein.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for your support and your mindfulness. With Many blessings till next episode
