Meditation is mentioned in many bible verses. Contrary to some beliefs, mediation is not Witchcraft, negative, or evil in any way as long as you are doing it with the purpose of what is best for you and within a perspective of love. Here are just a couple.

Why meditate? To raise your vibration and consciousness. This helps relax the mind, quiet the ego, and better connect you with your Higher-Self, spirit guides, and angels.

Angels, must in turn, slow their vibration down to meet yours. The higher you make your vibration, the easier it is to connect with them and the stronger the experience/feeling for you. Meditation can also positively affect the energy in and around your body therefore helping you physically as well as mentally. Remember, this gets the conscious mind out of the way. You may try this at the same time each day and ask your guides to meet you.

Before you begin meditating, lighten your mood by moving your body around a bit. Slowly move, dance, or stretch as you breath deeply. Do what makes you feel happy and relaxed. Take a salt bath to relax your muscles and release negative energy. Hold an attitude of gratitude in your heart. Think of what you appreciate. These things can begin the process of releasing the negativity that my be stored within your thoughts and energy.

Now prepare yourself further. Put on some soothing music. I recommend music from a group called Liquid Minds. You want soothing music that will be in the background, but not take your attention away from your thought. Find a quite spot where you will not be disturbed. Make sure your electronics and phone are off. Sit in a comfortable position. Keep your spine straight. This will allow energy to flow from the bottom of your spine to the top of your head or Crown Chakra. You can sit in a chair, on the floor with legs crossed or uncrossed or simply lay down with a pillow under your head. Take your shoes off to connect better with the ground.

You can burn incense if you like. Incense helps raise your vibration. The more you involve your other senses the better (smell and music). Frankincense and Myrrh are two very good incenses for meditation. Have a piece of “dark” chocolate before you meditate. This can also release a sense of pleasure and peacefulness within you.

Be in the moment. Think of nothing, but the Now. This is best achieved by concentrating on your breath. By breathing deeply, slowly, and deliberately. Be sure to set your intentions. Say, I want to relax, raise my vibration, connect with my spirit guides and (fill in the blank). Whatever you want to achieve. Say it to yourself. Out loud is even better.

Begin by breathing in through your mouth, hold it for a three count, then release it through your nose. Let all your air out. Envision your lower back meeting the front of your stomach. Breath in again. Repeat the process 10 times. You can then switch it up and breath in through your nose, hold at the top and breath out through your mouth. Do this 10 times. With each breath feel the stress of the day melt away. You can begin envisioning this from the top of your head and work your way to your toes. See the stress simply shoot out of your fingers and toes as it leaves your body. In its place is a golden loving light that enters through your You can also think of breathing from any part of your body (i.e. from your heart Chakra). This will bring energy to that area. If you have a back ache, breath energy into the area to open it up and relax it.

If at any time you feel you are thinking of something specific, don’t fight it. Let it pass through your mind. You can always bring your thought back to your breathing.

Now envision a cord of light coming from your ankles and the bottom of your spine and into the Earth. See it travel down deep into the center of the Earth. Feel it travel down and hook into the Earth’ core. You may feel a sensation of it taking hold. Don’t rush it. If it doesn’t happen right away, give it a moment. Keep seeing the energy travel into the Earth.

Next, see a ball of energy just above your head (or crown chakra). See this energy travel up toward the sky. See it go directly into the sun. Don’t worry what time of day it is now… just envision the sun above you and the energy going right into it. You are now connected to the Earth and the Universe. 

Protection: It is important to shield yourself from energies that are not positive or from the light. This is a MUST! Simply, see yourself enclosed in an egg shaped ball of white or golden light. Next, wrap that energy in a vibrant blue light. In between each, think of a vacuum where anything that is negative gets automatically sucked out and sent to the sun to burn up. Only positive, loving light, and light that you invite in can penetrate and reach you. Ask your spirit guides for assistance. Simply say, dear spirit guide, please help protect me from all things that are not from the light. Only let energy in that is of the light and is for my highest and best good. You are now protected.

Return to your breath for a bit. Continue to relax. Continue to envision the stress falling away. Relax deeper into a state of weightlessness and peacefulness. 

At this point, you can ask your Guides questions or for assistance with something. Pay attention to what happens next. You may get an energy feeling, a tingling, a sense of warmth or any number of reactions. You may feel nothing. This is ok to. Believe me, they heard you. The answer is available. It just may take a period of time for you to receive it.

Be with the energy. Enjoy the feeling.

When you are complete, reverse the process and become aware of your breathing again. Become aware of your body, your fingers, your toes. Begin to stretch them out. Open your eyes, if they were closed (you don’t always have to meditate with your eyes closed). Become aware of your surroundings. Take your time.

Meditating this way is how you get in touch with yourself and create a relationship with your Guides and Angels. Meditation builds upon itself. The more you do it the better results you will have. 21 days of something will but it in your subconscious. You will find that it becomes easier and easier to get yourself into a meditative state. Your energy will be higher and higher each time. You will get to the point where you can’t wait for the chance to sit quietly and meditate.

No matter what may be bothering you in your day, if you meditate it will bring you back to the energy that is much higher in vibration. One that is full of love and peace. It will re-connect you with who you truly are and help put things in perspective.

You can meditate as often as two times a day if you like. It does not have to be long. You can start with 15 to 30 min. if you like and work up to an hour. Or simply keep in at 30 min. You will soon find what works best for you.
