Understanding Meditation
Powerful studies show the effectiveness of meditation. Meditation is often misunderstood. It does not have to be boring, nor done in the morning or right before bed. Meditation does not belong to one religion or culture. There are no rules to meditation. However, I believe regular practice time is important for general well-being.
Meditation is…
A handy tool that is with you all the time, wherever you go and whenever you need it.
An emotional, mind, body, and spirit “go-to” for when you need to feel centered and grounded.
A connection to your highest state of being and communication with God, Source, the Divine.
The calming of your mind, body, and emotions, meditation may be looked at as an equivalent to prayer time.
The Power of Affirmation
Carefully crafted affirmations are words that seed your whole being. The power of affirmation, mantras, and chants is recognized all over the world in many different societies and cultures. An affirmation is a positive thought that affirms a positive feeling. Your word is your magic wand, speak it, and so it is.
Examples of Positive Affirmations:
- I am slim
- I am joyful
- I am healthy
- I am a 6-figure income earner
You can be detailed in your affirmations; the more detailed you are, the more clear and profound the seed is for yourself and the Universe to recognize (i.e., are you just planting flowers in your garden? Or are you planting white roses, Shasta daisies, and mammoth sunflowers?)
Go into your state of meditation and chant aloud or repeat the words in your mind of your carefully crafted affirmation, and begin to feel you are living the words of your affirmation. The “I am” is the most powerful statement you can say; the “I am” claims what words you place after it. You may find this effective when you need a tool to shift or change your habitual thoughts or behaviors (for example: combating negative self-talk, putting down the cigarette, stepping away from the donut).
Meditating by feeling emotionally connected to your affirmation, your highest self, and God, you will begin to radiate a higher level of energy. As a result, you will begin to see changes happening in your life; opportunities will arise as the affirmations will transform from your words and thoughts to become manifest and realized.
You truly can live your dreams; the process is in universe and mind, body, and spirit alignment. This is a manifestation and implementation of the law of attraction.
A colorful garden full of life blooms awaits you! Begin your seeding now.
I appreciate the detailed explanation of how positive affirmations can be used in conjunction with meditation. The specific examples of affirmations provided are useful for someone new to these practices. It’s a helpful guide for those looking to incorporate these techniques into their lives.
The notion that meditation and affirmations can be tailored to fit individual needs and preferences is compelling. However, I’m interested in seeing more empirical evidence supporting the efficacy of affirmations. Are there any reliable studies mentioned?
The analogies used, such as comparing personal growth to a blooming garden, make the concepts more relatable. It’s an inspiring read, but it would also be interesting to hear about any potential challenges or pitfalls one might face when starting these practices.
While the article provides a motivational perspective on meditation and affirmations, it would be beneficial to include more scientific references. Understanding the psychological and physiological mechanisms behind these practices could offer deeper insights.
The article presents a comprehensive overview of the benefits of combining meditation with affirmations. It is intriguing to see how these practices can potentially transform one’s life when integrated into daily routines.
I agree, Annie. The emphasis on the flexibility of meditation practices is particularly refreshing. However, I’m curious about how to maintain consistency in these practices amidst a busy schedule.
