How Can I Learn To Meditate
It’s a bit like riding a bike, once you’ve learned how to meditate then it’s a process you’ll
have access to the whole of your life.
But where can you learn to meditate?
There is a lot written about meditation on the internet, that is a good place to start
gather information to make your decission.
When you are starting out, it’s important to choose a meditation method that’s easy to
pick up.
I’d personally suggest a breathing meditation, a walking meditation or, if you prefer, a
“high tech” meditation like Insight TImer where all you need to do is sit down and play the
app. My personal preferance is to use visualisation to access a meditative state.
My suggestion is that once you are armed with the information, it is better to nd a
teacher who can work with you and answer your questions.
There are pluses and minuses to each of these methods, but as a general rule they are all
easy enough to pick up.
Once you’ve decided on a meditation method, trial it for a week or so to see whether or
not you really get on with it. If you do, keep going with it. If you don’t, then try another
method instead.
As with everything else in life, not everyone gets on with everything. There’s no
embarrassment if you nd you don’t like a particular method.
A week or two’s trial is a good length of time. Anything less and it’s unlikely you’ve given
the method a fair trial. After all, it probably took you more than one lesson to drive a car.
Do your best to meditate at the same time each day. We’re creatures of habit and this
includes meditation. Especially when you are learning something new, set aside a speci c
time of the day when you are most likely to be able to carry out your meditation practice.
