10 Commandments for Meditation Practice
Here
are my 10 Commandments for Meditation Practice:
Research shows the long-term benefits of meditation to be significant, even life-changing and positively mood altering. People prone to anger and depression are less likely to have meltdowns if they practice meditation, and stress levels are reduced. Though meditation techniques can be learned quickly, it's no instant fix and requires discipline. But in a world of constant activity, even a little stillness goes a long way. Become mindful of the insight and hope within.

Though meditation techniques can be learned quickly, it's no instant fix and requires discipline. But in a world of constant activity, even a little stillness goes a long way. Become mindful of the insight and hope within.
1. THOU
SHALT MEDITATE SAME DAY, SAME TIME, SAME PLACE.
To
be successful, find a comfortable environment and stick with a
routine. My office is transformed into a meditation alter each
morning and evening. Meditation is a rejuvenating way to start my
day, and a relaxing way to end my day, gearing me down for a peaceful
night's slumber. Try different times and places, then decide what is
most effective for you. The key is consistency.
2. THOU
SHALT MAKE ADJUSTMENTS.
No
matter how good your intentions, some days won't allow for
commandment #1. A successful meditation practice includes the
flexibility to occasionally adjust your schedule. If you have to skip
your regular time, try not to miss it altogether. Instead, find a
niche earlier or later in the day, even if you have to cut your time
a little shorter. Skipping too many days is a slippery slope. Be
flexible because perfection isn't required.
3. THOU
SHALT USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM.
We
all begin with the best intentions but schedules can get in the way.
Recruit a buddy, local or remote, who is interested in meditation and
agree to "meditation check-ins." A once- a- week email,
instant message or even a 5-minute call can spell the difference
between success and defeat. Monks and nuns meditate in groups for a
reason!
4. THOU
SHALT CREATE YOUR OWN RITUALS.
Seasoned
practitioners will tell you their practice evolved as they did, so
know your methods will change over time. Don't let conventions
dictate your practice, it should be as unique as you are. Your
meditation style is completely YOUR CALL because you've got to use a
format that's right for you. If you meditate best to music, chants,
Guided Meditations or Hypnosis, give yourself permission to do it. If
you'd rather be outside than in, find your groove under a tree
(Buddha did that). If meditating in the dark with candles is your
Gothic twist, draw the curtains and enjoy the show. If you're an
eye-open-type meditator, trust your eyes to find their meditative
muse (maybe water, a tree, clouds or a field inspires peace).
Whatever rituals and location you prefer, if it feels right-go with
it. No apologies necessary, meditation should be guilt-free.
5. THOU
SHALT BE HAPPY WITH THE LITTLE THINGS.
There's
a reason it's called "practice." Some days you'll be in the
zone and exhilarated and other days you'll be bored or distracted.
Remember, you're practicing. Meditation is mind training
and brains don't change overnight. As you're practicing, be excited
for the big leaps forward but also acknowledge that tiny steps are
forward movement, too. Rome wasn't built in a day and patience is a
virtue.
6. THOU
SHALT ALLOW YOUR MIND TO WANDER.
Contrary
to popular belief, meditation isn't about clearing or stilling your
mind. It's really about observing what your monkey mind is doing. The
restless monkey is going to wander, get bored, complain that it's
sleepy and jump around. It may pick on you, and pick fights-all in
your head! The goal of meditation is not to make the monkey sit and
stay but to watch the monkey with detached awareness. When you catch
the monkey at play, remind it gently to simmer down and observe as it
begins to quiet. Concentrate anew on your breath, or on whatever
focal point you've chosen (like the music, the candle, or the cloud).
The point is, your mind will wander because that's what monkeys do.
Don't be alarmed and but don't give up, either. It happens to every
monkey, even experienced ones.
7. THOU
SHALT RELAX THE BODY.
Begin
your meditation with a "body scan." Your body will "talk
to you" if you tune into it: Ask:
1.
Head-Is there any pain, tension or tightness?
2.
Neck and shoulders-Sit erect with arms still and palms facing up.
Notice any tension stored in the shoulders and neck. Roll your head
from side to side for maximum flexibility.
3.
Torso-Is my stomach in a knot? Am I sitting upright using my best
posture, and is my stomach pulled in?
4.
Pelvis-Am I seated as comfortably as possible?
5.
Legs-Are they intertwined or in alignment with my upright spine?
6.
Arms and hands-Are my arms resting comfortably and are my fingers
still?
7.
Feet-Are my feet planted firmly on the floor, grounding me to the
earth? If sitting in the lotus position, are my feet free from
tension and strain?
8. THOU
SHALT BE PATIENT.
It's
easy to think you're doing it wrong, or think someone else is doing
it wrong, or the opposite-that their practice is superior to yours.
Instead of criticizing yourself or someone else, be reminded that
there is no magic way to meditate. Whatever works for you is the
right way. If what you're doing isn't working be willing to adjust
your approach, benefiting from someone else's experience. This isn't
a race-you're not competing with anybody. If you or a friend is
making headway, have faith that in time you'll become meditating
superstars.
9. THOU
SHALT LEARN TO BREATH.
Breath
work is the core foundation of meditation. Begin each session focused
on breathing exercises. Place your full attention and awareness on
your breath, shifting from the exterior world to your interior world
where meditation really comes alive. Meditation is an exercise in
re-focusing, and breath work is the fastest, most time-tested method
of getting you to your goal of deep connectedness.
10. THOU
SHALT HAVE A GOOD TIME.
I
saved the best commandment for the last. If you're not having fun
then something is wrong because meditation should not be
stress-inducing or anxiety provoking. The goal is to alleviate
stress-not add to it! If you go easy on yourself, applying patience
and allowing yourself to be happy with the small gains, meditation
should be a treat you'll look forward to. Make your practice
uniquely yours. Own it, and you're more likely to stick
with it. If you're having a good time, odds are you are doing it
right.
