Meditation

Meditation is simply about stilling your mind and going within, focusing and getting in touch with your inner consciousness rather than the external environment. With practice, you can connect with your inner guidance, your higher self and spiritual guides.

Breathing is commonly viewed as a very important technique for meditation. Meditation techniques also often involve visualisations although they are not essential. Tools like new age music, candles and scents can be helpful to obtain a deeper state of meditation, though again, they are not essential.

Aaron (channeled by Barbara Brodsky) explains:

What is meditation? Meditation is your way home. It is the means to know yourself at deeper levels, and this knowledge allows you to be in harmony with the universe. It is the path out of the illusion of separation in which your human form and feelings bind you. Meditation frees your awareness from such personal identification. It is the way to know your oneness with each other, with all living things, and with God.
