Day 1 Becoming the Light

Today's Affirmation: I am the light and the light is me.

Meditation offers us an opportunity to

connect on a deeper level with our

soul.

Today's meditation will guide you into

experiencing what it's like to become

one with the light that is within each

and every one of us.

It's quite a powerful meditation and

perfect to kick off your 28 day

journey.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful

beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us." ~ Marianne

Williamson

Day 1 "Becoming the Light"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through meditation.

Page 4: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 2 Circulation

Our Affirmation for today: My blood flows easily and unrestricted.

Meditation offers us an opportunity to

access our body's power and wisdom to

heal itself.

Today's meditation will guide you into

creating healthy blood flow.

Did you know that: In Chinese Medicine,

the blood is believed to be related to the

spirit, since it comes from the heart.

New blood brings vitality to every cell of

the body, including the brain. Proper

blood flow is important for mood, and a

healthy Spirit.

Day 2 "Circulation"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through meditation.

Page 5: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 3 Concentration

Today's Affirmation: My powers of concentration are constantly growing stronger.

Meditation is about increasing your ability to concentrate and focus your attention, becoming

master of your mind instead of your thoughts having endless power and control.

When we are able to step outside of our mind and be the knower, aware of the thoughts of the

thinker, true power is gained.

Meditation and concentration are the way to a life of serenity. ~ Remez Sasson

Day 3 "Concentration"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 6: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 4 Creating

Today's Affirmation: Everyday in every way I am creating more of what I want.

We are creators. We underestimate the power and value of our ability to create especially when

it comes to our own life.

We are manifestors of the highest degree and if we can align with our ability to create we can

truly change not only our life but our selves.

Today’s meditation is about helping you to let go of your past and recreate yourself now in the

present. Because that’s where your power lies, in the present.

Our quote today: Life isn't about finding yourself. It's about creating yourself.

Day 3 "Creating"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Day 5 Heart’s Desire by Michele Bergh

I affirm that I am one with all the wisdom, power, and love that is, was or ever will be.

When you align with the energy of your heart it raises your vibrational frequency to a much

higher level, so you're not relying solely on your mind power.

This is important, as it opens the opportunity for a much more desirable result. All the power,

wisdom, love and goodness in the universe is within you, individualized as you.

The greater your acceptance of being one with the eternal energy that is within you and

everything in the universe, the greater your understanding will be, and this feeds your ability to

manifest your heart's desire. (Source: www.fernstewartwelch.com)

Our quote today: "I'm very determined and stubborn. There's a desire in me that makes me

want to do more and more, and to do it right. Each one of us has a fire in our heart for

something. It's our goal in life to find it and to keep it." ~Mary Lou Retton

Day 6 The Sanctuary by Meleta Ward

I am a spiritual being expressing and manifesting ever higher levels of consciousness.

In today's meditation you will create a sacred sanctuary and invite your guide to come in and join

you.

In that space you will connect with all that is and open up to a higher level of communication

with your spiritual counsel who is always guiding you and supporting you on this earth journey.

If you are uncomfortable with the term "guide" feel free to replace it with Guardian Angel or

God. The important thing to remember is that this is about creating a sacred sanctuary,

connecting with the spiritual realm and feeling LOVED.

Our quote today: "The space given to sanctuary is like a safe-zone for the soul." ~Christopher

Forrest McDowell, PhD

Day 7 Forest & Stream

Today's Affirmation: I project an aura of peace and power wherever I go.

Below is a "bonus" 3:36 minute video on nature and affirmations. It's quite good. I recommend

watching it before you listen to today's meditation.

3 Minute Youtube Video: Nature Meditation

Our quote today: "Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Day 7 "Forest & Stream"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 10: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 8 Goal Accomplishment

Today's Affirmation: I project an aura of peace and power wherever I go.

"Though no one can

go back and make a

brand new start,

anyone can start from

now and make a brand

new ending."

~Author Unknown

Many times we set goals and then life gets in the way and the goal turns into some fantasy that

only happens in a perfect world. Subconsciously we may be sabotaging our efforts to create a

more fulfilling life.

We may have a limiting belief that we are not worthy or deserving of peace, harmony and

happiness. Today we are going to break free from self limitations imposed on us by external

circumstances, something someone said or did to us that is still affecting our ability to be happy

now.

The real truth, the only truth is that happiness is a choice. It is our choice. When we become

aware of unhappiness in that moment we can choose again. So today I invite you to CHOOSE

AGAIN.

Day 8 "Goal Accomplishment"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 11: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 9 Higher Consciousness

Today's affirmation: I am a perfect spiritual being in human form.

"We are not human beings on a spiritual journey.

We are spiritual beings on a human journey.”

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Connecting with our soul can move us into higher states of consciousness.

It is by "remembering" who we are, a spiritual being, that brings us closer into alignment with

our highest good.

When we are operating from our highest good we are pure love, pure light, pure bliss.

So today I invite you to remember the divine being that you truly are.

Day 9 "Higher Consciousness"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 12: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 10 The Garden of Your Life

Today's Affirmation: I choose to let go of the past and embrace the present moment.

"Do not let the present be held hostage by the past."

Neal A. Maxwell

I am a huge fan of the Fire Ceremony as many of you know. Today we are going to create a

burning, sacred ceremony right in the middle of our own mind.

This meditation will help you burn up those things in your life that are holding you back from

being calm, peaceful and radiant.

If it feels like I am speaking directly to you today, it's because I am and you are ready to release

and let go.

Day 10 "The Garden of Your Life"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 13: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 11 The Lift

Today's Affirmation: I am peace in this moment now. I choose peace in this moment now.

“Breathing in, I calm body and mind.

Breathing out, I smile.

Dwelling in the present moment I know this is the

only moment.”

― Thich Nhat Hanh, Being Peace

Meditation is whatever you desire it to be.

It can be for relaxation, rejuvenation, healing, connecting to your soul, love…whatever you

intend you can create in this space of meditation.

Yesterday we focused on releasing and letting go, today we will focus on embracing and

empowering.

Once again we are going to connect to your soul, your essence, that which is pure peace, pure

love.

If you find your mind drifting, gently bring it back to your breath. Your breath will bring you

home every time as Thich Nhat Hahn tells us. Your breath is your connection to the present

moment.

Day 11 "Higher Consciousness"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Day 12 Inner Stillness by Catherine Fenske

Today's Affirmation: I have boundless energy that lasts all day long.

"My true relationship is

with myself –

all others are simply mirrors

of it.”

~ Shakti Gawain

Today Catherine guides us into a deep, relaxed state as we experience a beautiful tropical island

and spend the day relaxing in the warm, refreshing water.

Day 12 "Inner Stillness" shared by Catherine Fenske

Catherine is a dear friend and an excellent Coach at Live With Intention.

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 15: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 13 Clarity/Freedom by Catherine Fenske

Today's Affirmation: I am never stuck. I can always change my thoughts.

Today Catherine's soothing voice takes us to a place where we can release blocks and worries

and step into the freedom of peace and joy.

“As long as you think that the cause of your problem is “out there”—as long as you think that

anyone or anything is responsible for your suffering—the situation is hopeless.

It means that you are forever in the role of victim, that you’re suffering in paradise.”

― Byron Katie, Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life

Day 13 Clarity Freedom Replay now available:

Day 14 Energy

Today's Affirmation: I possess an endless supply of energy.

"Energy flows

where attention goes”

- Michael Bernard Beckwith

Our meditation for today is designed to help rebalance and refresh your energy field.

Many of us get quite drained from the business of just living day to day. Taking care of the

house, the bills, the kids or animals. Making dinner, shopping, laundry, caring and cleaning for

yourself, your partner maybe. There’s just always so much to do…so much to do.

But not today! Today we are going to turn that around.

Today we are going to create an ENDLESS supply of energy for you to tap into at any time

when you are feeling worn out or drained.

Day 14 "Energy"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 17: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 15 Chakra Balancing Meditation

Affirmation: My chakras are spinning in perfect harmony for my health & well being.

"Happiness is not a matter of

intensity but of balance, order,

rhythm and harmony.”

~ Thomas Merton

Today’s meditation is designed to assist you in rebalancing and realigning your chakras.

“Chakras are our energy centers. They are the openings for life energy to flow into and out of our

aura. Their function is to vitalize the physical body and to bring about the development of our

self-consciousness. They are associated with our physical, mental and emotional interactions.”

http://healing.about.com/cs/chakras/a/alignchakras.htm

When our chakras are out of alignment physical dis-ease may present itself. It’s quite simple to

move your chakras into alignment through your intention in an easy meditative process.

Day 15 "Chakra Balancing"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 18: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 16 Relaxation

Today's affirmation: Every breath I take fills me with harmony, peace and relaxation.

"Sometimes it's important to work

for that pot of gold.

But other times it's essential to

take time off and to make sure

that your most important decision

in the day simply consists of

choosing which color to slide

down on the rainbow."

~Douglas Pagels, These Are the

Gifts I'd Like to Give to You

We are half way through our Meditation Challenge…how are things going for you? Are you

meeting your goals? When we began you had the option of committing to 3 different levels: 3X

a week, 5X a week, or daily.

Have you been able to make good on that promise to yourself? If not, that’s okay. Don’t be too

harsh on yourself. It’s never too late to get back on track and renew your goals and

commitment. If you just change one thing in your life you will be a different person at the end of

the year.

It doesn’t have to be a mind blowing change…it can be a little, teeny weeny baby step. So

instead of beating yourself up because you’ve fallen short of your goal, be gentle, be kind and

pick yourself up off the floor and begin again.

Sometimes not meeting our goals is about resistance. Resisting change.

Even if it’s good for you for your body, your subconscious mind sometimes sabotages your well-

intended efforts. So if you find your mind arguing with your desire to meditate planting negative

Page 19: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

seeds like: This is a waste of time, I deserve to skip a day, or 2 or 5. My mind is still racing all

the time. On and on and on….recognize those thoughts for what they truly are.

Self Sabotage. Because you know deep down inside that creating a regular, consistent

meditation practice really can change your life, you will be happier, more well-adjusted,

healthier, calmer and that list goes on and on and on.

I encourage you to meditate with a friend or in a group. Be sure to check out my website for

group meditations that I offer. Watch for our Meditation Mastermind group that will meet

every other week through a live webcast.

We will become masters of our mind through group meditation. This is an opportunity for

support and accountability and to take your spiritual experience to another level.

Day 16 "Relaxation"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 20: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 17 Mountain Trip

Today's affirmation: I listen. I trust. I take guided action.

"You must train your

intuition – you must

trust the small voice

inside you which tells

you exactly what to say,

what to decide.”

– Ingrid Bergman

Sometimes we get so busy with our life that we can't hear that still, small voice inside of us.

We really do have a team of angels, guides and loved ones working with us to help us make good

decisions in our life and move us on that path that will lead to our highest good.

I love today's meditation because it not only allows us to quiet our busy minds but invites us to

ask spirit a question.

So if you are faced with a decision or uncertain about which direction to move in, think about a

question you might like to ask spirit and toward the end when I invite you to ask, be ready. Also,

know that if you don't receive an answer immediately it's okay. It doesn't mean that you have

not been heard, it just means to be watchful. The answer will show up later or unfold during the

day or week or month.

I hope you have been finding value in our time together and would so love to hear your

thoughts. Feel free to message me privately or share in our Facebook Group page: Dare to

Meditate Group.

Day 17 "Mountain Trip"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Day 18 Good Sleep

Today's affirmation: I sleep in peace and awake invigorated.

"And if tonight my soul may

find her peace in sleep,

and sink in good oblivion,

and in the morning wake

like a new-opened flower

then I have been dipped again

in God,

and new-created.

~ D.H. Lawrence

I am amazed at how many people have trouble sleeping at night. Did you know that 25% of

Americans have occasional sleeping problems and 10% of people have chronic sleeping

problems.

Not getting a good night's sleep can affect your ability to carry out daily responsibilities because

you are too tired or have trouble concentrating.

All types of insomnia can lead to daytime drowsiness, poor concentration, and the inability to

feel refreshed and rested in the morning.

Today's meditation will assist you in creating a new pattern of healthy, restful sleep. If sleeping

well is an issue for you I encourage you to listen to this recording at your regular meditation time

but also as you are falling asleep at night.

It will serve as a good reinforcement for creating that beautiful, relaxing state as you drift off into

a deep, peaceful sleep.

Day 18 "Good Sleep"

Day 19 Breathing Exercises with Anity Pzyski

Today's affirmation: I take deeper, stronger more relaxed breaths.

Animals just instinctively know how to breathe well. You don't hear them complain about

anxiety or stress.

Just for a moment today take a deep breath and relax into the energy of the animals.

I have two Yorki Poo dogs who are forever lounging around napping and I love to just snuggle

into their peaceful bliss even if it's just for a moment.

Today we are blessed with Anita's calm, relaxing voice as she explains that: "One of the best

ways to learn how to meditate and to control monkey mind is to concentrate on your breathing.

While you're concentrating on your breathing, that busy monkey mind has something to do.

Any time during any meditation, if you can't focus on the meditation bring yourself back to

breathing and just concentrate on the feeling of your breath going in and out."

Today's quote: "When you inhale you are taking the strength from God. When you exhale, it

represents the service you are giving to the world." B.K.S. Iyengar

Day 19 "Breathing Exercises" shared by Anita Pizycki.

Anita owns International Association of Spiritual Entrepreneurs.

Day 20 Connecting with Spirit by Anita Pizycki

Today's affirmation: I am healed by divine love.

"Instead of asking

“what do I want from life?,”

a more powerful question is,

“what does life want from me?”

Eckhart Tolle

Today's meditation will allow you to go deeper into the spiritual realm.

Anita will guide you into a deep meditative state and then invite a spiritual being (maybe it's

your Guardian Angel, Spirit Guide, Loved one who has passed, or God) to connect with you to

answer some of your questions.

You've been asking for help and they want you to know that they have heard you and are here to

help.

Then Anita will move you into a relaxing, restful space to just be and experience divine love.

Day 20 "Connecting with Spirit" shared by Anita Pizycki.

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Day 21 Mental Nothingness

Today's affirmation: I am nothing but IS. I do nothing but BE. By Aham Asmi Raama

Hare.

As the Buddha tells us in today’s

quote:

"When you go into the

space of nothingness,

everything becomes known."

Today we are going to relieve your attachment to things by stepping

into the blissful state of “nothingness.”

Day 21 "Mental Nothingness"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 25: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 22 Colors

Everyday I allow myself a few moments just to be. I am peaceful, relaxed and centered.

"Meditation is a state of

consciousness in which

personality is connected to

soul."

It is through meditation that we can tap into the wisdom of our higher self and feel the

connection to all that is.

Today we will move through various colors to create and enhance our meditative experience.

Day 22 "Colors"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 26: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 23 Self Acceptance

Today's affirmation: I add value to other people's lives just by being myself.

"If your compassion does not include

yourself, it is incomplete.”

Buddha

If you want peace in your world it really does begin with yourself, in your mind. Do you beat

yourself up all day long in your head? Criticizing your every word, questioning your every

action?

No wonder why you're exhausted by the end of the day. You not only have all of “life” to deal

with, but you’ve constantly got an inner critic to handle. Your assignment today is to become

more aware of your thoughts and when you are needlessly beating yourself up. We do it so

automatically that this is really important, to become aware of what you are saying to yourself.

Are you being kind, and nurturing like a loving mother with a newborn child or are you being

cold and merciless like the bully on the bus.

The key to transformation is awareness and meditation helps to bring that awareness into our

life. It’s time to stand up and decide once and for all that living your life on auto pilot is not

okay anymore. The bully has to go. Now that you know better, you do better. So today is about

honoring the beautiful spirit you truly are with love and compassion.

Day 23 "Self Acceptance

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

meditation.

Page 27: Dare to Meditate - Heaven Sent Healing · Day 10 Meditation ~ The Garden of Your Life Day 11 Meditation ~ The Lift Day 12 Meditation ~ Inner Stillness shared by Catherine Fenske Day

Day 24 Gratitude

Today's affirmation: I am grateful. I am grateful. With every beat of my heart and every breath that I take I am grateful. (www.morningmessages.com)

"Gratitude bestows reverence,

allowing us to encounter

everyday epiphanies, those

transcendent moments of awe

that change forever how we

experience life and the world."

John Milton

Today is the perfect day to take a moment to honor and acknowledge all of the good things and

wonderful people we have in our life.

I am excited to share with you what I call a “POWER” meditation because it is filled with very

powerful affirmations that will create endless joy and gratitude.

Over the past 23 days we have been creating a consistent, regular meditation practice, whether

you are meditating once a week or everyday it is through discipline and consistency that

transformation occurs.

I want you to take a moment to feel gratitude for yourself and for your desire to want more in

your life, to want a better quality of life, and for taking the steps you needed to ensure your

success.

Day 24 "Gratitude"

If you know of others that may benefit from this meditation experience be sure to reach out and

and let them know about this program.

Day 24 Embarking on a Journey

Today's affirmation: I feel absolutely marvelous today!

"Let your mind start a

journey through a strange

new world. Leave all

thoughts of the world you

knew before.

Let your soul take you where

you long to be.

Close your eyes, let your

spirit soar and you'll live as

you've never lived before."

Erich Fromm

Today we are going to embark on a journey. A journey of simple peace and relaxation. Today’s

meditation will give you an opportunity to get in touch with your body. I am going to use a

technique I call “Touch Points.”

This is an excellent technique to use when you are trying to fall asleep at night as a matter of fact

I use it practically every night when I am falling asleep. It kind of gives your body permission to

step out of the business of your day and unwind and relax. You simply go through all the points

in your body and tell them to relax, gently and easily. You can begin with your head or your toes

and when you’re done if you’re not fast asleep you can start all over again.

It feels quite wonderful and very simple to do. This is also a great technique to use with children

who have a hard time settling down at night to fall asleep.

Day 25 "Embarking on a Journey"

Thank you for joining our mission to raise the consciousness of our planet through

Day 26 Gateway to Spirit

Today's affirmation: I am a gateway to infinite manifestations of spirit.

“There are only two mistakes one can

make along the road to truth;

not going all the way,

and not starting.”

- Buddha

There are many ways to work with the chakras and your subtle or energy body. From a health

and well-being perspective, balancing and clearing them as you did on Day 14 has a profound

impact.

In Kundalini Yoga traditions, the focus is on moving kundalini – or spiritual life force energy -

up through the chakras, from the root to the crown, so that you may experience a complete union

with Source.

In other traditions, each chakra is considered a unique gateway into Source. Traveling through

our 1st chakra we can experience a profound connection with our physical selves, through our

2nd chakra a connection to passionate creation, through our 3rd a merging with pure power,

through our 4th, universal love, through our 5th, authentic expression, through our 6th, cosmic

stillness, and through our 7th, absolute bliss.

As today’s affirmation reminds us, we are each a gateway into an infinite number of

manifestations of spirit. In today’s meditation, we will once again focus on the chakras, but this

time, try to experience each one as the unique doorway it is into the divine.

Day 27 Connecting Elements by Lisa Erickson

Today's affirmation: I am at one with all the elements of nature, wherever I am.

Spending time in nature is a profound & powerful way to clear our energy bodies & connect with

spirit. Each of the chakras in our subtle body is associated with an element from nature:

1st /Root– Earth

2nd

/Sacral – Water

3rd

/Navel – Fire

4th

/Heart - Air

5th

/Throat – Ether or Pure Energy

6th

/Third Eye – Light

7th

/Crown – Source

In today’s meditation, we will again focus on the chakras, but this time we will also visualize

ourselves surrounded by the associated element, enabling a communion of sorts between our

energy body and nature itself.

What is so powerful about this type of meditation is that we can experience the cleansing and

empowering effects of nature even when we are in our home, office, or car. Today, allow

yourself to believe in your ability to connect with these elements through the power of your

imagination, and feel it’s joyful impact.

Quote: “Nature is full of genius, full of the divinity; so that not a snowflake escapes its

fashioning hand.” - Henry David Thoreau

Day 28 Stress

Today's affirmation: I can change my stress with my perception. Peace is a choice.

I can't believe we have journeyed through 28 days. I have learned so much (way more about

sound and recording than I ever wanted to) and am so grateful for connecting energetically with

all of you.

Whether you joined and just read the daily posts or started and stayed with me every single day, I

honor your desire to change.

In guided meditation we use the voice and visual imagery as a focal point to begin to train the

mind to detach from thought.

Technically the psychological state for meditation is yin, calmness, focus, but no grasping, no

yearning, no aversion, no emotion, no analysis or trying to do something.

When you meditate today, allow the words to bring you out of thought but let your mind and

feeling nature be impressed with the soul energy that you need at that moment in your life - be it

peace, understanding, love, tolerance, courage, or whatever. Then experience the energy as part

of you. (soulsigns)
