Mental Health Meditation
Here's a little Mental Health Meditation for you in a modern pandemic. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, came shelter in place orders, which then lead to an increase in domestic violence acts worldwide.

A Mediator Movement
Mass meditation. It sounds like something from a Sci-Fi movie doesn't it? I don't know about you, but with the way things are going lately the only comfortable I've been able to find has been through the power of positive and persistent kindness. Some may consider topics like "celestial stargate" to be fake, or some type of conspiracy theory which it potentially could be. None of us actually know. But, it's quite interesting and gives hope during times that seem to be hopeless.

The Highest Vibration
Let's take a second and meditate together. Imagine you are a being from another place in the galaxy. I want you to imagine the place, imagine a name. It could be your own paradise. Your own rules. Your own landscape. Your own everything.

My “Kundalini Awakening” Wasn’t “mystical”! It was a Neurological Experience!!!!! No Woo Woo Needed!
The most psychedelic thing that ever happened to me was during a group meditation. My wife and I were invited to a Deeksha Giving session in Eugene, Oregon in 2007. I had been a sort of an off Soto Zen guy for years, but at the time I didn’t know much about Kundalini, Shaktipad, or Deeksha, as it was called in this case.

That I Am
24/7 caregiving causes you to become creative to oftentimes maintain meaning of self. I’ve gone from journaling, to painting, working all kinds of puzzles to finally meditating. After searching Utube for about two weeks, I decided to try meditation.

Nature As Art for Art's Sake
Life is composed of a series of events that arise only to collapse. Nature is a perpetual work in progress – a process of infinite change. The rate at which change precipitates is beyond our brain’s capacity to calculate.

Mindfulness
If there is one thing that I’ve learned through the years, it’s that the mind can be a powerful tool to help guide us and make sense of the world around us. It can help us create works of art, it can help us with various skills and talents, and it can even help us overcome challenges. However, despite the amount of good the mind can do, it can also do a lot of harm. While the mind has indirectly attributed to suffering in the world through creations and actions that have caused physical harm, it can also directly cause suffering to the individual it belongs to. This is usually brought about through ruminating on things that may cause fear, anger, or sadness.

Meditation for the Easily Distracted
Does the thought of meditation bore you? Do you find it difficult to sit quietly and calm your thoughts from the hustle and bustle of daily life? Perhaps you just haven't found 'your' method of meditation!

Your Brain on Meditation
Introduction To say that Meditation is a well-known concept in western society nowadays would be a severe understatement. From weekly yoga classes to about a thousand meditation apps scattered across app stores worldwide, the gig is up: everyone knows about the concept of meditation and its myriad of benefits.

I Meditated Every Day for a Month
This year, I really wanted to get a handle on my anxiety. So I set out to try the most popular remedies and I noticed a reoccurring theme. Meditation made the top of most lists. I had tried it here and there but never consistently. It was hard for me to focus and my mind would wander. Part of me was always skeptical of the process and would never commit to the idea.

A Beginner's Dive into Yoga + Meditation
The yoga world can appear really intimidating. Modern media depicts thin, fit practitioners with their ankles behind their ears and balancing on their heads. I get why a lot of people feel like they “can’t” do yoga! But that’s unfortunate, because the physical strength is such a small part of this greater lineage of practices for your body and your mind. I’ve been practicing for over five years and I still struggle with headstands! That doesn’t mean you can’t try yoga.

Cello: Mindfulness & Slow Scales
It's easy to find playlists of cello music compiled for relaxation and mindfulness. Listening to the low, rich and reedy quality of this string family member can be soothing and uplifting, perhaps touching a nerve through its similarity with the human voice.
