TWIN HEART MEDITATION

If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to meditate, but didn’t know where to start, this blog is for you.

What is Meditation?

Meditation isn’t about becoming a different person, a new person, or even a better person. It’s about training in awareness and getting a healthy sense of perspective. You’re not trying to turn off your thoughts or feelings. You’re learning to observe them without judgment. And eventually, you may start to better understand them as well. Why meditate? What are the benefits, and how are they measured? How do you learn to meditate? Is there a difference between meditation and mindfulness? Will you need to sit on cushions and find perfect silence? All are valid questions, and we’re here to help you with this guide to meditation. We’ll explain the meditation basics and dig into the setup, the styles of practice, the science behind it, and the discoveries that may happen over time.

When we meditate, we inject far-reaching and long-lasting benefits into our lives: We lower our stress levels, we get to know our pain, we connect better, we improve our focus, and we’re kinder to ourselves. Let us walk you through the basics in our new mindful guide on how to meditate.

A Basic Meditation for Beginners

The first thing to clarify: What we’re doing here is aiming for mindfulness, not some process that magically wipes your mind clear of the countless and endless thoughts that erupt and ping constantly in our brains. We’re just practicing bringing our attention to our breath, and then back to the breath when we notice our attention has wandered.
Get comfortable and prepare to sit still for a few minutes. After you stop reading this, you’re going to simply focus on your own natural inhaling and exhaling of breath.Focus on your breath. Where do you feel your breath most? In your belly? In your nose? Try to keep your attention on your inhale and exhale.Follow your breath for two minutes. You can use the breath ball—inhaling as the ball expands, exhaling when the ball contracts.

HOW TO DO TWIN HEART MEDITATION

1.Begin with a physical warm up through simple exercises like neck rolling, eyeball movement, shoulder rolling, knee rolling, squatting, push-ups, pull-ups and stretching. This warm up session should last for at least 10 minutes. The physical warm up session makes the body and brain active. It opens up different energy blockages and also eliminates negative energy from the body.

2.After the warm up session, you need to sit in a very comfortable position. The spine should be properly aligned and erect. Breathe deeply for few minutes until your complete body becomes relaxed and calm.

3.Begin the positive thought process of your mind by recalling the blessings from your parents, teachers, spiritual healers, and god. This is the first step of activating the heart chakra.

4.Place your hand on the center of your heart. Start thinking of the best moments you had in your life with a special friend, teacher, lover or spouse. Heart chakra activates positive thoughts, memories and feelings in life. Thus, triggering the thought process of positive and happy feelings is the best way of activating the heart chakra.

5.Continue to think of those happy moments until you completely lose to your spiritual self.

6.After you start feeling positive and happy, touch on the center of your head. Head is the activation center of the crown chakra. Touch your head for 2 minutes and start blessing the complete world.

7.By this time you will start feeling the presence of the heart chakra and crown chakra simultaneously in your body; then start blessing the entire universe.

8.Start imagining a pure bright light in the center of your brain. Chant the holy word Om while visualizing the presence of the pure light. Let the light spread through your brain and the entire body.

9.Once your body gets filled with this positive light, release it to your surroundings.

10.Slowly open your eyes and repeat the same process every day.
