How to Meditate to
Quiet Your Mind
If you
have constant chatter in your mind it is virtually impossible to hear divine
revelation and intuition. By quieting your mind, you will be able to receive
and better understand inspiration. And, you will have more harmony, joy,
and love in your heart and soul.
Meditation
is a powerful tool to quiet the mind and balance your body, mind, and spirit.
It’s simple to do and is highly rewarding. It's a mental exercise that will help you to lose weight, be less stressed, have more self confidence, be happier, be compassionate, be forgiving, attract abundance, and be healthier.
It
only takes a few minutes (if you’re short on time), but it’s best to do so for 10
to 30 minutes. The ultimate goal is to be one with your higher self and connect
with heavenly powers of pure energy and light.
Mediation is a pathway to connect with your higher self. The more
in tune you are with your inner self, the easier it is to release and let go of anything that burdens you. It's a healing method to clear limiting thoughts and beliefs to make way for truth, light, and peace.
We
create our lives with our thoughts, feelings, and emotions. When you have
scattered thoughts and feel uneasy, it makes life more difficult. Thankfully, you can become more peaceful within by meditating often, which brings about a
happy, fulfilling way of life.
Mind of Its Own
You may
find it difficult to quiet your mind when you begin meditating, not to worry, that’s
very normal. Naturally, the mind does not like to be quiet or still. It
expresses if it should stop thinking the world may stop, that’s obviously is
not the case. However, the mind seems to have
a mind of its own, which requires constant supervision and conditioning.
The mind
likes to stay busy and when left unattended it can cause confusion and upset within.
That’s why it’s important to become the master of your mind. Being in
control of your thoughts will allow your spirit’s energy to emerge brightly,
which help you to have control over your mind.
An untamed
mind can cause a long list of unwanted states, such as feeling recklessness,
overwhelmed, confused, helpless, sad, depressed and addicted. It’s vital for
your health and wellbeing to have a quiet mind and peace within. Meditation can
help release stress and tame the mind to become confident, empowered, and
peaceful.

Meditation
If you’re
new to mediating, you can Google various ways to meditate. There is no one
right way to do so. You can download apps on your phone to follow along with or
meditate as you feel impressed to.
Meditation
is simple and bring about a sense of tranquility. All it takes is a little bit
of your time, focusing on your breath, making intentions (what you want to
achieve – think in the present tense as if you’re living that way now),
visualizing your end results, and being grateful for what you set your intention
on for manifesting.
As you
mediate, always begin with a prayer of gratitude. Have love and compassion for
yourself, and for everyone in the world. As you do so, you will increase your
energy vibration to that of creation to enable you to co-create your life with
Christ and Heavenly Father.
Below
are steps to meditate. Practicing meditation regularly will aid you in your
spiritual expansion and bring about more love, joy, peace and abundance in your
life.
Simple Steps to
Meditate
- Find a
place in your home (or work) where you will be undisturbed for at least 10
minutes.
- Close
your eyes and sit uprightly on the ground (or on a chair with your feet
flat on the floor, place your hands on your thighs).
- Take
three cleansing breathes by breathing deeply, as you do so, focus on
quieting your mind.
- Set
your intention of increasing love, compassion, and inner peace for
yourself and the world around you.
- Then
focus solely on your breath for a few minutes, without having any
thoughts. When a thought comes into your mind, just let it float by,
giving it no attention. Then bring your attention back to your breath.
- As
you do, ponder and sense your beautiful vibrant divine energy within,
which is the real YOU – your spirit.
- Next,
connect with your inner child and feel the pure love of Christ fill your
heart, mind, and soul as your embrace her/him. Feel the love between you
and the safety that she/he feels now.
- Then
visualize your goals as if already accomplished. Use all five senses as
you see yourself living as you desire and intend to. As you do so, be
enthusiastic and grateful for that which is to come.
- As
you end your meditation, allow the words of our Savior encompass your
soul, “Be still, all is well”. Feel the pure love and light fill your
soul.
- Take
a few more deep cleansing breaths and finish with a prayer of gratitude.
Relish in the peacefulness within and the joy of wellbeing.
- As
you open your eyes resonate with the inner-peace, love, lightness, happiness,
contentment, and bliss you connected with. Try your best to stay in that
energy throughout the day.
Quieting
your mind will allow you to connect your body, mind and spirit. It will enable you to live from your higher self more fully, which will literally inspire you to transform your life in miraculous ways!
As you create a habit of meditating, do so with faith and believe that you can create and live the life of your dreams!
