Guided Meditation

What can you expect from a guided meditation session? Are you looking for a starting point? Guided meditation sessions can be a great way to begin this valuable practice since you will be able to learn from others as you go.

You can attend a guided meditation class or buy yourself a guided meditation CD to do at home. You will have to decide if you're looking for a meditation program that will address a specific need--such as smoking cessation or dealing with a loss--or if you are meditating just to learn how to meditate.

If you go to a guided meditation class, you’ll have the advantage of seeing how others practice. You will learn how to sit comfortably, which is more challenging than you might guess. Many people find the group setting helps them establish discipline with their practice, especially in the beginning. You’ll also have the advantage of seeing your guide and learning some about his or her practice.

When purchasing a guided meditation CD, look for one that is at least thirty minutes long (sixty minutes is best).

Find a secluded spot where you can concentrate for the entire time without interruption.

Once the CD gets going, close your eyes, settle into a position that will be comfortable but in which you can stay alert, and focus on the guide's voice.

Pay attention to your breath as you follow the breathing exercises, deepening your relaxation and meditation. The guide will help you get deeper into a meditative state by describing imagery or telling a storyline that will help you follow along. Then the instructor will guide you through thoughts about change or acceptance or relaxation, depending on the focus of the CD. The instructor will finally gently bring you back to a fully conscious state, readying you for your daily situations.

Guided meditation can provide many benefits, including stress relief and improvement of mental focus.
