Most people take short, shallow breaths into their chest. This type of breathing can make you feel anxious and drain your energy. While we can’t and don’t want to eliminate all the stress from our lives, we can learn how to control our responses to it.

Deep breathing exercises to alleviate stress, is one of the best ways to lower stress in the body. When you learn how to breathe deeply and consciously, it sends a message to your brain to calm down and relax. The brain then sends this message to your body and your relaxation response kicks in.

There are several deep breathing exercises in this guide, some of which are commonly recommended, some of which are unique, and all these techniques offer help in managing stress. Stressful experiences often trigger a cascade of fears and anxieties. As a result, we get carried away by the internal thought processes in our mind that we’re unable to cope with what is happening at the moment.

Research shows that mindful breathing is one of the most effective tools in our toolbox to reduce stress and anxiety.

5-Minute Mindfulness Body Scan Meditation Script & Mp3

Do you believe in good and bad forces in life? Well, I’m sure you do, it’s obvious that it exists. But what I’m talking about is the concept of “yin and yang” where there’s light and dark – good and bad to everything.

In the same regard, I believe that there also exists good stress and bad stress. As famous wet oil painter Bob Ross once said “You can’t have the light without the dark. You need the light areas to make the dark areas show. Just like in life.”

Let’s go through the elements of stress briefly before we talk about deep breathing…

For starters, let’s discuss the good kind of stress, and then work our way to the other kind. When you’re thrust into a situation that challenges your potential and your capabilities, it brings on a certain element of stress.

Whether it’s trying something you’ve never done before, competing in a contest, starting a new business or venture, or anything else – what you’re having is an experience with the GOOD kind of stress.

These challenges are what bring your life a constant state of change, in terms of the up and down movement in emotion. Without these sort of happenings, your life would, arguably, become far less predictable and potentially less exciting.

While it may be comfortable to remain in a zone of “knowing”, you also deny yourself the opportunity to explore your full potential as a person. Sometimes all it takes is a little bit of encouragement or a fresh perspective to inspire you to step out of your comfort zone.

Guided Meditation For Reducing Anxiety and Stress In 12 Minutes…

Instead of approaching situations as “fearful”, approach them with a heightened sense of awareness as a neutral observer.

Now, bear with me here. You want to view situations, people, and everything as an observational body. By this, I mean, rather than placing judgment or jumping to a “side”, you simply observe. Practicing this relaxed state of mind will allow your environment (and the people within it) will become more supportive and, of course, relaxed.

I believe that a lot of us are equipped with an instinct to form excuses and reasons as to why we shouldn’t tackle a challenge, or make a significant (or small) change. Meanwhile, the truth is that sometimes your rational mind does have a point.

At the same time, you should be consciously aware of your comfort zone and how rooted you become with it. The more you immerse yourself within it, the harder it can be to get out.

Think about it this way: sometimes you might be comfortable, and then all of a sudden an opportunity comes along. Your first instinct may push you to decline the opportunity, whatever it may be, and remain in a state of constant knowing and comfort. Taking an intelligent “risk” when the timing is right can end up transforming your life from ordinary to far more fulfilling.

Taking even a small step forward can be a positive movement towards growing as a person and also coping with the other kind of stress – the bad kind. Now, if you’re going through this course, then I’m sure that may be why you’re here. Dealing with the bad stress, the kind you could definitely do without in your life.

Breathe To Heal | TEDxCapeMay

With anxiety, stress, and sleep dysfunction skyrocketing around the globe, these debilitating challenges can be meaningfully impacted with ten to twenty minutes of breathing exercises per day. Max Strom, who has taught breath-work for 20 years, reveals his insights into the healing power of the breath.

I’m not going to bore you or waste your time by listing off reasons or situations that can generate bad stress. Mainly because I’m certain you KNOW what stresses you out and creates that feeling of overwhelm in your life. Just thinking about the topics and things that are weighing over you can cause your mind to escalate the situation. This, in turn, makes coming up with a solution AND dealing with the stress effectively far more difficult.

Now that I’ve given you this overview of good and bad stress, let’s learn how breathing can relieve stress in our lives.

The first thing I want you to do is to breathe. Yes, that’s all you need to do: breathe.

But hold on, you can completely stop your mind from wandering and focus only on one thing which is the process of breathing and the breaths themselves. Take notice of the breath coming in through your nose, filling your diaphragm and chest, and then release the breath slowly out of your mouth. When you exhale the air, try to release the unpleasant thoughts that are troubling you. You can’t continue to think about the issue between breaths. The idea here is to clear your mind.

When you breathe in again, (yes, you have to repeat the process several times), paint the picture of positive energy coming in through your nose. Imagine that pure positive energy, drifting out of you, upon exhale, and improving your environment. Diffusing the stress around everything that it comes in contact with.

Similar to just about every other aspect of life, in order to reap the benefits of really anything, you need to fully commit whole-heartedly.

As cliché as it may be to say, one of the strongest methods for manifesting success (which is subjective to every person, by the way), is to believe. Visualize the success and your goals. Block out the negativity and stress spawning thoughts from invading.

Using Meditation Music To Relieve Stress And Tension

Children are a prime example of how powerful the concepts of imagination and inspiration can be to self-righteousness. They often use their imagination in such ways that it creates life and the world around them where the stresses of the outside and the real world don’t affect them. They remain entertained by this powerful environment all build from imagination and freedom of the mind.

Alright, alright, I know you’re probably scoffing at this point and saying how as we get older, we seem to lose that imagination. Not to mention, we take on a multitude of different responsibilities and even burdens. As adults, we have to work, cook, clean, care for ourselves and often others, manage bills, and have a personal life too.

While this may be true, that doesn’t dismiss the fact that you, just like any child, you can use your imagination and inspiration to better impact your life. Not surprisingly, many self-help guides, books, and so on often refer to the term “visualize” when describing these situations and this process.

In reality, both visualizing and imagining, to me, are just one and the same. They don’t have to be boring, they can and SHOULD be fun. Visualizing the goals, your successes, and happiness, will, in turn, help you to RELEASE the bad kind of stress from your life.

Guided Breathing Meditation Course For Anxiety, Worry, and Stress

Without getting off track, let’s shift focus on to relieving BAD stress. Remember, we’re practicing breathing techniques.

Once you’re at the point where your body is being filled with pure positive energy (air), you want to visualize (or imagine) that this energy is transforming every cell throughout your body. Think of it like an “internal massage” of sorts, where your organs and everything will be touched and refreshed with a renewed energy.

I know that in a way it does sound crazy and farfetched, but just try to experience this sensation when you practice breathing in this way. Recognize this energy, your positive and creative energy, all full of color and life, and let it “wash” through your body internally and invigorate your mind.

I understand that this whole “imagining” or “visualizing” process may not be as easy for some as it is for others. This often comes from the inability to take life “less seriously” in a way. Sometimes it seems as though the more serious you take life, the more serious of occurrences and situations will be thrown your way.

You may even watch other people laughing, enjoying their life, and being just all around happy with the way thing are going. In this process, you may eventually become resentful and envious. This can only feed further into the negative energy and stress that exists in your life.

What needs to happen, is you need to come to a point where you breathe easy (literally) and realize that life doesn’t have to always be so serious. It’s fine to let loose, enjoy things, and be silly every now and again. Do things that make you smile, take opportunities and go out of your comfort zone.

Because the reality is that these very same people you see loving life, are doing this exact same thing. For all you know, they may be stressed beyond belief and stepping out of their comfort zone regularly because they know it inspires positivity and happiness in their life.

Since we’ve gone over how to think and focus your mind and thoughts while you breathe, in order to both relieve stress and center your mind, I think it’s important to also touch on how breathing impacts our body and health. Beyond just breathing techniques, there’s a lot that breathing plays into the mind, aside from the fact that we need it to survive.

To summarize, this is what happens when you have poor breathing habits (yes, that’s actually a thing, believe it or not).

 You lose out on your most important source of energy.
 You get hungrier, especially for junk food and sweets.
 Your body suffers from a lack of efficient oxygen, which negatively affects
your “free radicals” and can increase your chances of long-term illnesses.
 You feel more stressed, which reduces your body’s ability to fight off illness.
 Your body’s lymphatic system functions badly, so it can’t eliminate toxins as
efficiently as it should.
 Even your thinking is impaired.

So, now you’re probably scratching your head and saying “how should I breathe?”

Well, there’s plenty of breathing exercises that you can make use of. Some are designed to cleanse your body; some to reduce your stress; and so on. But before looking at exercises, let’s first just take a brief look at your breathing habits.

Check Your Breathing

The best way to check your breathing is honestly to stand in front of a mirror and take a deep breath in. Notice what happens. In particular, I want you to look at all of these things:

 What happened to your shoulders (did they rise or stay roughly still)?
 What happened to your chest (did it rise high or stay roughly still)?
 What happened to your stomach (did it go in, stay roughly still or expand)?

From there, here’s what you should do next…

 Stand in front of a mirror.
 First, breathe out — empty your lungs.
 Take in a deep breath, and notice what happens to your shoulders, chest, and stomach.
 Again, empty your lungs and again notice what happens to your shoulders, chest, and stomach.
 Repeat this as many times as you need to notice what’s happening.

Correct Your Breathing

If you’ve ever watched a baby sleeping on its back, you may have noticed the correct way to breathe. For instance, when breathing in, the baby’s stomach rises (expands). When breathing out (exhaling), its stomach goes in. Its shoulders and chest don’t move, or if they do move, it’s hardly at all.

This is exactly what your aim should be when practicing breathing and trying to correct your breathing overall. Here’s a short checklist for what you should notice in the mirror when you breathe in deeply.

Right vs Wrong

 Your shoulders stay level
 Your shoulders lift up
 Your chest rises only a little
 You use your chest to store all the air
 Your stomach expands
 Your stomach goes in
 Breathing relaxes you
 Breathing in tenses you

A Habit to Carry With You For Life

This may take a while at first, but I promise if you stick to it, it’s going to become a healthy and beneficial habit to practice. If you’ve already adopted this habit, then good! If not, for your own peace of mind, I strongly encourage you to adjust the way you’re breathing.

Remind yourself about the way you breathe, every time you…

 Walk through a doorway
 Lie down to go to sleep
 Wake up in the morning
 Get into a car, bus or train
 Get out of a car, bus or train

Finally, the part you’ve been really building up for. There’s no shortage of breathing exercises in existence today, especially with the internet. However, I want to share with you three very simple but highly beneficial breathing exercises that anybody can make use of in their life.

Deep Breathing Benefits

Diaphragmatic or belly breathing is what we should aim for, where every deep breath goes straight to the lungs and fills the body with oxygen.

Deep breathing benefits both physical and mental health. It alleviates stress, improves confidence, and helps create better blood circulation. Breathing is free and effortless.

Deep breaths are more efficient: they allow your body to fully exchange incoming oxygen with outgoing carbon dioxide. They have also been shown to slow the heartbeat, lower or stabilize blood pressure and lower stress. To experience deep breathing, find a comfortable place to sit or lie down.

Cleansing Breathing

Here’s something that will set you up for the day. It’s a great habit to get into first thing in the morning. A lot of people, after mastering it, even find it rather addictive – yes, more so than even coffee. If possible, do this in a clean area — away from traffic fumes, or anything else, and with plenty of ventilation.

To start, remember how you should breathe (from earlier). Breathe out.

 Breathe in slowly and as deep as you can, to a count of about four seconds.
 Hold your breath for 12–16 seconds (less, if it feels uncomfortable).
 Breathe out slowly, emptying your lungs as much as possible, for a count of about eight seconds.

Repeat these steps several times. You may feel slightly light-headed. As someone once told me, “That’s your brain saying, Thank you!” I find this such a lovely feeling, that sometimes I’ll start to wander around the garden, breathing away, realizing after about five minutes that I’m still doing this exercise!

Fire Breathing

Although this has a fiery and abrasive name, it’s actually a stimulating quick stress relief trick. Do this whenever you have to keep going, but feel, “It’s getting too much for me!”

 Inhale through the nose.
 Hold for a moment.
 Breathe out in short, sharp bursts: fuo-fuo-fuo-fuo…
 Do this six times or so.

Anxiety Breathing

Feeling overly anxious? Here’s an excellent breathing exercise you can practice.

 To start, sit comfortably in front of a table. Elbows on the table, palms over eyes, eyes closed.
 Imagine (visualize) your palms lighting up brightly.
 Imagine this light flowing down through your arms…
 Back up to your shoulders…
 To your chest…
 Down to your solar plexus. Light up your solar plexus strongly.
 Beam the light backward to light up your spine. Let the light flow down to strongly light up your coccyx (your tailbone).
 Take notice of your breathing.

Remain like that, noticing your breathing, for as long as you’d like.

Now, I know that this brief course was to cover breathing, but the mindset and approach behind it are just as important as the process of breathing itself.

Practicing the art of “breathing relief” is truly a blessing in a lot of ways. What I strongly encourage you to do is realize that bad things are going to happen in life and that you can’t avoid them, to an extent. Stressful situations are going to rear their ugly head and you’re going to have to deal with them face first.

With breathing in mind, always take a few deep breaths before you react to any situation, especially those that are stressful to you. The situation’s you may be faced with will definitely become infinitely more management if you allow your mind and imagination to take you to a positive place.

Brainwave Entrainment: Achieve Deep Relaxation and Emotional Balance

When you go out in public, be conscious of how you look to others. Present a positive appearance and smile at others. I know it seems wild but the more you embrace the unexpectedness of life, the better your life will become. Less stress will bother you and impact your life in a negative way.

Just as if you were to approach an angry person out in public, maybe on the street and you looked them straight in the eyes with a genuine smile on your face. Look at the undesirable situation with the same positive energy that you’re working so diligently to submerge your life with. Nearly 9 times out of 10, that hostile person will be far less agitated, and the difficult situation will be, as a result, less daunting.

Wrapping things up, I want to thank you for taking the time to go through this short course and I truly hope you’ve taken a thing or two away from it.

I’d like to encourage you to take some time to practice breathing and visualizing positive scenarios in your life. Prepare yourself for the future, whether it’s stressful or comfortable, and you will find that you’re able to manage situations far better.

Merkaba meditation technique is a very powerful meditation tool for transition, healing, manifestation, and ascension. It utilizes an understanding of Divine Love and Sacred Geometry.

This meditation technique reactivates the fields of energy around the body that gives beginning to your personal Merkaba (time and dimensional vehicle).

What does “Merkaba” mean? The word Mer-Ka-Ba is made up of three smaller words: Mer, Ka, and Ba. The Merkaba is a counter-rotating field of light generated from the spinning of specific geometric forms that simultaneously affects one’s spirit and body.

In accordance with the teachings of Drunvalo Melchizedek, The Merkabah meditation techniques are one of the most powerful tools for mental, emotional and spiritual development. The purpose of creating a Merkabah is to expand the different energy fields of the subtle bodies by activating the Merkabah field.

Merkaba for healing and balance

The varieties of benefits of using the Merkaba are greatly varied. It is a powerful healing and protection tool. By utilizing the ancient Prana breathing technique, we are able to restore the Prana flow through the pineal gland at the center of our brain. This revived use of our gland, which has been virtually dormant for 13,000 years allows the heightened use of our telepathic and extrasensory perception abilities.

Merkaba balances and revives the activities between the two sides of our brain. Such training strengthens our sensitivities and mental abilities, (at this time we use only 5-10% of our brain). The Merkaba assists us in our spiritual and personal growth. It connects us with our higher self (i.e. ourselves on a higher level of consciousness).

The Secrets Of Deep Meditation For Spiritual and Personal Growth

Merkabah Mysticism

The word originally referred to the moving throne of God in the Bible, like the vision of Ezekiel, and spiritual practices based upon it historically. Merkaba Mysticism or Merkaba deed is a term referring to the Jewish mystic books such as the secret Torah, Pardes and some also include in it the book of creation  (Yetzirah).

The word Merkaba or Merkava means chariot and was based upon Ezekiel vision from chapter 1. In the vision, he saw the four Cherubim riding a chariot of fire.

The word Merkaba is actually composed of three separate words: Mer, which means light, Ka, which means spirit and Ba, which means Body. Put together, these three words connote the union of spirit with the body, surrounded by light.

The symbol, which takes the shape of a star, is believed to be a divine vehicle made entirely of light and designed to transport or connect the spirit and body to higher realms. Ancient Jewish texts reveal that the word is also the Hebrew for a chariot, and the Bible reveals that the word Merkaba itself is found in the Old Testament a total of 44 times.

To be acquainted with the general aspects of the Sacred Geometry that act as a starting point for activating the Merkabah field. The ascension process begins when you remember the Merkabah energy field. This is an energy field that extends 55 feet around the body and is of a geometric crystalline nature.

Merkabah means counter rotatory Light-Energy field

It is known that this energy field was an active part of human beings 13,000 years ago and due to the dimensions phase out, conscience decreased towards the third dimension and the Merkabah conscience was lost. The memory of this field is activated by drawing and meditating on the mandalas of Flower of Life, which include within themselves all.

Merkaba enables us to feel unconditional love thus healing ourselves as well as others. It gives us the possibility of creating any kind of harmonious reality we desire. The Merkaba can be “programmed” to do anything (the only drawback being our own belief and imagination).

As you raise your vibration your Higher Self is able to become embodied and guide your Golden Merkaba in the manifestation of your soul’s purpose for this lifetime.

It meets you at your current frequency and expands with you as your consciousness continues to awaken.

You align with the Higher Good and your life begins to unfold in balance and harmony with Universal Law.  Old wounds and past life traumas that are affecting your wellbeing begin to rapidly drop away as you become the embodiment of Divine Order ~ Peace | Harmony | Balance.

Your Merkaba system receives the solar light codes that are essential for the restoration of the planetary crystalline DNA.  As you raise your vibration, you contribute to the restoration of peace, balance, and harmony on Earth through the projection of the light codes in your energy field.

Angelic Chakra Cleansing Meditation Guided Meditation Mp3

As you learn how to meditate, the Merkaba is also a tool that can be used to transcend into other dimensions. Revived studies and practices of the Merkaba are emerging all over the world after so many years of being suppressed from different sources, including the Old Testament, Kabala, and even the traditional Tarot cards.

Universal knowledge that correlates with all knowledge co-integrated in the pineal gland, which is within the brain. This process impels the pineal glandís ulterior purpose, which is to retake the ancient ways of breathing. The interconnection between breathing and conscience is the key to a higher conscience and to access other dimensions. This will propel Christ Conscience evolution. Merkabah is a natural field of protection.

Merkaba is activated through an ancient way of breathing and meditation, through love and mudras (hand positions) that restart and spin the geometric energy fields surrounding the body.

VIDEO: What is a MerKaBa

To prepare for Merkaba meditation, create a place in your home that you can perform the meditation, it should be a place where you can’t be disturbed and distracted. You can do a Guided Candle Meditation and using a cushion or pillow to sit on may be helpful to make you feel relaxed and focused. Then let go of all your worries and just feel complete love for everything around you and become one with love.

Merkaba meditation aligns the energy fields of your body and enables easier energy movement. The meditation elevates you to higher consciousness and takes you beyond the limitations of daily life.

It is an advanced meditation technique and is recommended to be studied and practiced carefully under a certified guide.

Merkaba Meditation Benefits

A Merkaba Activation Meditation Script:

Sit or lie down, close your eyes and settle your mind.

First let us see the tetrahedrons surrounding your body: the male pyramid points upwards and begins at your knees, extending several feet above your head. The female pyramid extends downwards from your shoulders and reaches several feet below your own feet.

Are your pyramids spinning? Let us activate them now so that each pyramid spins in a different direction – the male pyramid spins from left to right around your body, and the female pyramid spins from right to left around your body.

Together, they energize your meridians more fully. As they spin, see them create a light field around your body, growing larger and larger in a saucer-like shape expanded by the centrifugal force of the Merkaba.

Breathe in, and out, in and out, a circular pattern that further fuels your Merkaba.

Now think about how you, personally, would like to pattern your Merkaba. How will you put your personal computer to work for you? Take some time to focus your attention on the matter, and set your intention with your Merkaba now.

Know that whatever you have intended, your Merkaba is now working on it completely, without deviation of failure.

As you have willed it, so shall it be.

Now slowly take your focus off your Merkaba, and return to your aura, see the healthy glow all around you, your chakras in tune, your cells turned on to their full potential. You are energized and you are well.

Return now, into your body, into this room, and be ready for LIFE!

VIDEO: Unified Heart Merkaba Activation
and 08-08 Gateway of Light

~ The Sacred Cosmic Fire of Divine Love and Universal Peace ~

On July 29th, 2013, we experience a Unified Heart Merkaba activation through the configuration of the Star of David in a Grand Sextile formation. As this formation further expands into the star tetrahedronal shape, surrounding Mother Earth and all Life in the Divine Blueprints of Creation, it amplifies the Unity Grid of Divine Love in new encodings of Light.

In this holy trinity of configurations, two Grand Trines, one of water, one of earth, a Stargate Portal of Light activates through the Sun and Solar System, assisting all Life to complete old karmic lessons and to experience Divine Love and Universal Peace in this Golden Age of Light.

We are further offered an opportunity to truly surrender our individual will to the Divine Will of Mother/Father God. In doing so, we clear our lower triad, which is the three-fold personality of the physical, emotional and mental bodies, and begin to manifest our reality as a co-creator to the Company of Heaven on Earth through the upper triad of Intuition, Spiritual Will and Higher Mind.

Furthermore, the Patterns of Perfection through our original Divine Eight-Cell Blueprint are cleared of the earthly ego allurements and karmic patterns no longer necessary to be re-experienced as the star tetrahedron activates within our original Divine-Eight Cell Blueprint Overlighted by Lord Michael, Lord Metatron, and Lord Melchizedek.

In this Golden Age of Light, as the karmic and Christed Timelines merge, many Light Workers have experienced deeper levels of initiations and perceived challenges. For we have been clearing the karmic energies on Mother Earth for not only ourselves but for all Life, so together we may truly experience the Cosmic Heart of All Creation.

As we experience this Unified Heart Merkaba activation, we activate our Light Body/Merkaba fields, and as One Heart, One Unified of Light, we clear the karmic timelines by bringing a focus to those countries most needing to experience the Christed Timelines through the sacred Cosmic Fire of Divine Love and Universal Peace.

Our Light Body/Merkaba is a living, organic Divine Intelligence, powered by our Beloved I Am Presence working in alignment with Mother/Father God. As we receive the amplified Light frequencies through this Stargate activation, we convert this Light energy into electrons and spin the sub-atomic particles within our bodies in increased Light frequencies. Lord Melchizedek further gifts us with the Melchizedek Platinum Healing Flame, which spins off the density frequencies and can be used in the healing of ourselves and others.

As we enter into the month of August, surrounded in the Copper-Gold and Pink-Gold Flames of the sacred Cosmic Fire of Divine Love and Universal Peace, and Overlighted by Helios and Vesta, and the Sirian Archangel League of the Light, we experience the 08-08 Lion’s Gateway as Melchizedek Initiates of Light.

Through the Lion’s Gateway, the Divine Feminine energy amplifies in its full magnificence. We further bring a focus to the Golden Flower of Life and the Golden Solar Sun Disc of Light within our hearts. We receive and transmit the energy of Self Mastery through the streams of Christ Consciousness accessed through parallel realities as the timelines merge and take us ever deeper into the Christed Timelines with the knowledge that we are already these sacred transfiguring Flames of Divine Love.

The energy of the Unified Heart Merkaba activation further amplifies through the Full Moon on August 21st, culminating in a second Star of David configuration on August 25th. And in this Now moment, we are given the opportunity to integrate the new Solar Crystalline keycodes of Light and to balance the energies of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine Principles of Light in Divine Love, Peace and Harmony.

Together we are co-creating our Heaven on Earth and over this next month, we are offered an opportunity to deepen our service work, to clear old discordant energies and karmic ties for ourselves, all countries and all Life. And we do so through our collective Light, as the Group I Am Avatar Race, and as these sacred transfiguring Flames of Divine Love. And so it is.

Merkaba Meditation Technique – First 14 Breaths

Merkaba Meditation Breath 1 – Inhale

Heart

Open your heart and feel love for all life. If you cannot do this completely you must at least open to this love as much as is possible for you. This is the most important instruction of all.

Mind

Become aware of the Sun (male) tetrahedron (the apex facing up to the sun, the point facing to the front for males, or the point facing to the back for females filled with brilliant white light surrounding your body. Visualize it the best you can. If you cannot visualize it, sense or feel it surrounding you.

Breath

At this same moment, with your empty lungs, begin to breathe in a complete yogic manner. Breathe through your nostrils only, except at certain places which will be described. Simply put, breathing from your stomach first, then your diaphragm, and finally your chest. Do this in one movement, not three parts.

The exhale is completed either by holding the chest firm and relaxing the stomach, slowly releasing your air or by holding the stomach firm and relaxing the chest. The most important aspect is, that this breathing becomes rhythmic. Begin by using seven seconds in and seven seconds out. As you become familiar with this meditation, find your own rhythm.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 1 – Exhale

Heart

Love

Mind

Become aware of the Earth (female) tetrahedron (apex pointing to the earth, with the point facing to the back for males, and the point facing to the front for females), also filled with brilliant white light.

Body

Keep the same Mundra.

Breath

Do not hesitate at the top of the inhalation to begin the exhalation. Exhale quite slowly for approximately seven seconds, in a yogic manner. When the air is out of the lungs, without forcing, relax the chest and abdomen and hold the breath. When you feel pressure to breathe again, after five seconds or so, then do the following:

This combined exercise will clean out the negative thoughts and feelings that have entered into your electrical system. Specifically, it will clean out the part of your electrical system that is associated with this particular mudra you are using. Immediately upon pulsing the energy down your spine, change mudras to the next one and begin the entire cycle over again.

Mind

Be aware of the flat equilateral triangle at the top of the Earth tetrahedron located in the horizontal plane that passes through your chest at approximately three inches below the sternum. In a flash, and with pulse-like energy, send that triangular plane down through the Earth tetrahedron. It gets smaller as it goes down and pushes all the negative energy of the mudra or electrical circuit out the tip or apex of the tetrahedron. A light will shoot out of the apex toward the center of the earth. The mental exercise is performed simultaneously with the following body movements.

Body

Move your eyes slightly toward each other, or in other words, slightly cross your eyes. Now bring them up to the top of their sockets, or, in other words, look up. This motion of looking up should not be extreme. You will feel a tingling sensation between your eyes in the area of your “third” eye. Now, look down to the lowest point you can, as fast as you can. You may feel an electrical sensation move down your spine. The mind and body must coordinate the above mental exercise with the eye movements. The eyes look down from their uppermost position at the same time the mind sees the triangular horizontal plane of the Earth tetrahedron move down to the apex of the Earth tetrahedron.

The next five breaths of the Merkaba meditation technique are a repetition of the first breath with a change on the mudra as follows:

Merkaba Meditation- Breath 2

Mudra change: thumb and second finger together

Merkaba Meditation -Breath 3

Mudra change: thumb and third finger together

Merkaba Meditation – Breath 4

Mudra change: thumb and little finger together

Merkaba Meditation – Breath 5

Mudra change: thumb and first finger together (as breath 1)

Merkaba Meditation -Breath 6

Mudra change: thumb and second finger together (as breath 2)

These first six breaths of the Merkaba meditation are for balancing the polarities and cleansing the body’s electrical system.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 7 – Inhale

Heart

Love

Mind

Visualize or sense the tube running through your body. The instant you begin the seventh inhale, see the brilliant white light of prana moving up and down the tube at the same time. This movement is almost instantaneous. The point where these two light beams meet within your body is controlled by the mind and is a vast science known throughout the universe.

In this teaching, however, you will only be shown what is necessary to take you from 3rd to 4th-dimensional awareness. In this case, you will direct the two beams of prana to meet at your navel, or more correctly, within your body at the navel level, inside the tube.

The movement of the two beams of prana meet, which is just as the inhale begins, a sphere of white light or prana about the size of a grapefruit is formed at the meeting point centered on the tube. It all happens in an instant. As you continue to take the inhale of the seventh breath, the sphere of prana begins to concentrate and grow slowly.

Body

For the next seven breaths, use the same mudra for both inhale and exhale; the thumb, first and second fingers touching together, palms up.

Breath

Deep rhythmic yogic breathing, seven seconds in and seven seconds out. There is no holding of the breath from now on. The flow of prana from the two poles will not stop or change in any way when you go from inhale to exhale. It will be a continuous flow that will not stop for as long as you breathe in this manner, even after death, resurrection or ascension.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 7 – Exhale

Mind

The prana sphere centered at the navel continues to grow. By the time of the full exhale, the prana sphere will be approximately eight or nine inches in diameter.

Breath

Do not force the air out of your lungs. When your lungs empty naturally, immediately begin the next breath.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 8 – Inhale

Heart

Love

Mind

The prana sphere continues to concentrate life force energy and grow in size.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 8 –Exhale

Mind

The prana sphere continues to grow in size and will reach maximum size at the end of this breath. The maximum size is different for each person If you put your longest finger in the center of your navel, the line on your wrist defining your hand will show you the radius of the maximum size of this sphere for you. This sphere of prana cannot grow larger.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 9 – Inhale

Mind

The prana sphere cannot grow larger, so the prana begins to concentrate within the sphere. The visual appearance is that the sphere grows brighter.

Breath

The sphere grows brighter and brighter as you inhale.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 9 –Exhale

Breath

As you exhale, the sphere continues to grow brighter and brighter.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 10 –Inhale

Mind

As you breathe in the tenth breath, the sphere of light in your stomach area will reach maximum concentration. Approximately halfway into the inhalation of the tenth breath, at the moment of maximum possible concentration, the sphere will “ignite” and change color and quality. The blue electric color of prana will turn into the golden color of the sun. The sphere will become a golden sun of “brilliant light”.

As you complete the tenth breath inhale, this new golden sphere of light will rapidly reach a new and higher concentration. At the moment you reach full inhalation of the tenth breath, the golden sphere of light in your body is ready for a transformation.

Merkaba Meditation Breath 10 – Exhale

Mind

At the moment of exhaling, the small sphere of golden light, 2 hand lengths in diameter, bulges to expand. In 1 second, combined with the breath talked about below, the sphere expands quickly to the sphere of Leonardo, to the fingertips of your extended arms. Your body is now completely enclosed within a huge sphere of brilliant golden light. You have returned to the ancient form of spherical breathing. However, at this point, the sphere is not stable. You must breathe 3 more times to stabilize the sphere.

Breath

At the moment of exhaling, make a small hole with your lips and blow out your air with pressure. As you feel the sphere begin to bulge, all within the 1st second of this exhale, let all your air out rapidly. The sphere will expand at that moment.

Merkaba Meditation Eleventh, Twelfth, and Thirteenth Breaths – Inhale & Exhale

Mind

Relax and just feel the flow of the prana flowing from the two poles, meeting at the navel and expanding out to the large sphere.

Breath

Deep rhythmic yogic breathing. At the end of the thirteenth breath, you have stabilized the large sphere and are ready for the important fourteenth breath.

Merkaba Meditation – The 14^th breath – Inhale

Heart

Love

Mind

On the inhale of the 14th breath, at the very beginning of the breath, move the point where the two beams of prana meet from the navel to about 1 inch above the sternum, the 4th-dimensional chakra. The entire large sphere, along with the original small sphere, which is still contained within the large sphere, moves up to the new meeting point within the tube.

Though this is very easy to do, it is an extremely powerful movement. Breathing from this new point within the tube will inevitably change your awareness from 3rd to 4th-dimensional consciousness, or from Earth consciousness to Christ Consciousness. It will take a while, but as I have said, it is inevitable.

Body

This mudra will be used for the rest of the meditation. Males will place the left palm on top of the right palm, and females will place the right palm on top of the left palm. Let the thumbs lightly touch each other. It is a mudra that relaxes.

Breath

Deep rhythmic yogic breathing. However, if you continue to breathe from your Christ center without moving on to the MerKaBa (which is recommended until you have made contact with your higher self), then shift to a shallow breath.

In other words, breathe rhythmically but in a comfortable manner where your attention is more on the flow of energy moving up and down the tube meeting at the sternum and expanding out to the large sphere. Just feel the flow. Use your feminine side to just be. At this point don’t think. Just breathe, feel and be. Feel your connection to all life through the Christ Breath. Remember your intimate connection with God.

The Merkaba Meditation – Last three breaths

The last three breaths of Merkaba meditation are intended for those who are ready to take the higher level, and should not be attempted until one has made contact with his or her higher self and the higher self permits to proceed. This part is to be taken seriously and is recommended that these breaths be thought in class.

By carefully practicing these specific Merkaba meditation breathing techniques, the meditator is able to create a heightened sense of awareness and focus all of their attention on the energy field surrounding their body. This allows the individual to achieve a spiritual balance, which in turn allows them to connect with their higher being.

When people start to practice Merkaba meditation, they often feel a stronger connection with the living world around them, as well as experiencing an increased feeling of energy. As they practice their Merkaba meditation exercises over the following months they may become used to these feelings, and actually, stop noticing them.

At this stage many people stop practicing, believing that their energy field is repaired. However, stopping the technique will only lead to the individual falling back into a state of unbalance.

It’s important to realize that Merkaba meditation requires a lot of dedication and self-discipline in order to gain benefits. It can be extremely hard to find the time to meditate, especially as it is so easy to become distracted with family and work commitments.

Guided Meditation – Manifesting From the Deep Self By Kelly Howell

The experience is of No-thing is not Nothing. There is a spaciousness and just Pure Awareness or Consciousness, and timelessness. You are That.

Occasionally people can experience varying degrees of Samadhi and the experience can be of rapture, deep peace and often bliss.

People who go into meditation with expectations of Samadhi or looking for any other experiences or states create an obstacle in their meditation.

One way to begin to go into deep meditation can be to stay with the thought/sense ‘I Am’ just quietly being with that, or you can follow the ‘I’ to its source and stay there.

The Secrets of Deep Meditation

I’ve noticed that when experienced meditators go in search of a means to deepen their meditation, they often start by looking for a new technique.

Sure enough, you may find that a new technique gives your meditation a boost, but in most cases, once you have learned how to meditate, the best way to improve the depth of your meditation is to keep using the same technique, but to approach it a little differently (I’ll get into this more in a moment). It may also be beneficial to you to make some positive changes to your lifestyle.

So instead of pondering over techniques or trying to learn some new trick, take a step back with me and let’s consider the larger picture of your life. If deep, blissful meditation is your sincere goal, then let’s explore the real factors that can help. You are already capable of deep meditation. What you may need are some reminders about what it takes to “go deep”.

All that’s really involved is listening to music that contains a technology known as “binaural beats”. It’s easy, it’s very relaxing, and for many people, it brings about a turning point in their meditation and leads to a rapid acceleration in depth.

Theta Wave Binaural Beats Meditation For Insight and Intuition

I know, I know…commitment and persistence isn’t two of the most “fun” words in the world, but like so many things in life, they are essential to achieving true and lasting results. If you want to be able to slip easily into deep meditation on a regular basis, then you will have to dedicate a little time and effort to succeed.

In it, I describe some of the steps you can take to easily elevate the status of meditation in your life and how the status of meditation in your life has a great bearing on how deeply you will be able to meditate.

Deep Meditation – A Holistic View

As you have by now realized, the technique that you use to meditate is generally less important than the manner in which you approach your meditation and your life as a whole.

Regardless of whether you do a simple breathing meditation, Zen meditation, vipassana meditation, Merkaba meditation, Buddhist meditation, or even standing meditation, the method that you use is secondary in importance.

All meditation techniques have the same ultimate aim, and while there are many factors that can influence your ability to meditate deeply, quite often it’s what you do when you are not meditating that can make all the difference!

Deep Meditation Music for Troubled Individuals

Many forms of meditation are applicable to many situations. If you’re a music lover, then perhaps you might want to try meditation music. In fact, as a human being, you can be compared to musical instruments because you can hum, sing, whistle, and make other pleasing and expressive sounds.

Every person’s musical experience is often described with words like harmony, flow, stimulate, healing, in trance, in tune, uplift, and many others. When you express yourself through musical sounds, something unusual is happening inside your system.

Numerous distractions bombard individuals as they go through their daily lives like noise pollution, social melodrama, the stress of a daily commute, the tedium of work, and a lot more. Life today is considered fast-paced because of a lot of new technological advancements, and therefore, people suffer from continuing stress.

You can’t focus on your work effectively because your mind is already overloaded, uninspired, and burnt out. This results in a creativity block that can bring hopelessness to a person. But here’s the good news, there is a way to combat and cope with this kind of situation and that is through deep meditation music.

It was only after 1973 when music was used for meditation. All the programs make use of binaural technology. Through this technology, the brainwave frequencies (right and left hemispheres) are synchronized.

Through deep meditation music, the brain can create fresh neural pathways. By doing so, the maximum potential of your mind is tapped at a shorter time. Usual meditation practices take longer periods but with music, you can find increased intelligence, inner peace, and reduction of stress.

Using Meditation Music To Relieve Stress And Tension

Different goals and needs can be met by the wide choices of programs available. The specific program should be used to address a certain need/goal since programs vary in their brainwaves, and this is necessary to get the preferred effects.

Meditation music can benefit a lot of individuals. In fact, some specialists recommend deep meditation music as a form of therapy to address certain problems like that of stress-related illnesses. Many people are actually using this very effective tool and they are amazed and pleased with the results. They are able to achieve personal growth as they continue listening to meditation music.

If you’re suffering from extreme stress, or if you’re always unfocused, burnt out, and uninspired, it wouldn’t hurt to try meditation music.

This is already accepted in our society today and many doctors are now recommending such therapy. If your medications seem to have no effect at all, then it would be best to start with music therapy. This is a very good form of meditation. It relaxes your mind, as well as your soul.

Online or offline, there are a lot of resources that you can use to help you in finding the perfect meditation music suited for your situation. Get family and friends to help or even your officemates. Better yet, consult your doctor or a specialist who knows a great deal about meditation music. You will soon realize that you’re slowly recovering from your problems.

Finding Relief With Deep Meditation Techniques

I would like to take you beyond the limits of your customary thoughts and experiences. This new way of life begins with two questions that are very simple.

The first question is would I want this to be true: “Every event that will befall me is absolutely the best possible event that could occur.” Meditate before answering this so that you can think about it with a clear mind and answer it truthfully.

The second question is the more difficult part, is to truthfully answer this question: Will I give that a chance to be true?

Imagine using meditation that God has appeared before you this instant and said: “I promise you that everything that happens to you from this moment forward will be of the greatest benefit to you and will bring you the utmost good fortune,”.

Suppose God went on to tell you, “Even though what happens will appear at times unfortunate or even hurtful, in the end, your life will be wonderfully blessed and hugely benefited by whatever may happen to you. Stop and meditate. How would you feel about that wonderful news? Happy? Perhaps you may even be filled with joy.

Wouldn’t it be the greatest news that you could ever hear? Wouldn’t you have a deep sigh of relief and feel as if a great burden had been lifted from your shoulders? Wouldn’t you then respond to the next thing that happened-even if it was hurtful or took something from you or seemed bad or even unlucky-as though it was going to be wonderfully beneficial for you, the best possible thing that could have happened?

If you have not enthusiastically answered yes, clear your mind, meditate on it. Perhaps you have mistaken what I am talking to you about.

I am not talking to you about the common phrase we commonly hear, “try to make the best of things,” which basically means ” The situation or event really is bad and terribly unlucky, but do what you can possibly think of or meditate to salvage some good out of it.”

Guided Breathing Meditation Course For Anxiety, Worry, and Stress

Nor do I mean that within even the worst event possible, there can be found a tiny bit of good. I am not thinking in terms of such limited ideas. I am thinking in unlimited terms, where every event that befalls you is absolutely the best event that could occur-that there is no other event imaginable that could benefit you to any greater degree.

So, again, while you meditate ask yourself wouldn’t that be the best piece of news you could hear? If you are willing to give this new concept a chance and actually believe that everything that happens to you will happen for a reason.

When thinking about anything, to get a great deal of relief just clear your mind and meditate about the good things that are to come to you in the future. Meditation can be much better than medication and you might just be really surprised how much better you will begin feeling after practicing it for a while.
