I have been meditating for almost 40 years and I cannot recommend it enough. Meditation is probably one of the oldest and most efficient ways to grow spiritually. I have been meditating daily since my early 20s, and I am a huge fan. I could go on about the benefits of meditation for days, but to number just a few: spiritual awakening, healing your soul and body, helping to raise the collective consciousness, connecting to your spiritual guidance.

There are thousands of different ways of meditation known to humanity, and that is why you can find a perfect meditation for yourself. You can meditate sitting, lying down or in movement. You can meditate with your eyes closed or opened. You can meditate at home, in nature or at a spiritual retreat. You can also focus on different things, such as: breath, words, visualization or energy flow during your meditation. And finally, you can meditate with infinite intentions, such as: to connect with your Higher Self, to balance your chakras, to relax, to heal, to connect with the morphic field. 

Meditation is not about stopping thoughts. Because the more you try to stop them, the louder they get. First you just observe them as the clouds in the sky without attaching to them or following them. Then you identify with them less and less. And one day you realize you’ve already spent some time (you never know how long it has been) in the beautiful void in between your thoughts. And then the world around you can no longer hamper your growth, and instead it starts to teach you how to do spiritual work under any circumstances. You also become more aware of what’s going on around you — as you step out of the meditation you start to see the bigger picture.

As your consciousness expands, and you learn to master your thoughts, you also learn to consciously navigate your emotional states. Which in turn prepares you to be a quantum observer consciously creating your reality and co-creating it with others. Hence, you step into self-mastery and power.

The beauty and simplicity of meditation lies in the fact that it’s available to everyone and everywhere. Also, there are no grades — for it can never go wrong — every minute and every hour you spend meditating is a success in itself.

The more often you meditate, the easier it gets. It becomes easier and easier to be the neutral observer — not identifying with your thoughts and not following their train. You just observe them as you would observe the clouds in the sky — without judgment or attachment — just being aware as they appear and disappear. And then — in the silence and stillness in between the thoughts — you meet the Divine.
