Preparation:

Find a quiet place - free of distractions. This can be indoors. Indoors - you may want to adjust lighting, room temperature - create ambiance with music from Crystalinks file, candles, crystals, incense, or anything else that enhances the mood.

Outdoors meditations might include a beach or meadow - anywhere in nature that is quiet and serene.

You can meditate alone or with a group.

Meditations can be long or short. There are no time restrictions.

Meditations and Initiations can be guided by another person reading the notes on the files below - by an audio tape of the notes on the files below - or you can memorize them and create your own rhythm.

Before you begin - you may want to keep a paper and writing implement near you - so you can quickly record what you see or hear after the meditation. You can also use a tape recorder to that end. Please remember to make a notation of the date of the meditation.

Be sure that your phones are off - mobile/cell or land lines.

Loosen your clothing - remove eyeglasses - footwear - any restrictive garment.

Getting Started:

Now you are ready to begin.

Sit down or lie down. Find a position that is comfortable for you.

Inhale slowly through your nose. Hold the breath as is comfortable for you. Exhale slowly through your mouth. Repeat two more times or until you feel completely relaxed.

Relax your body -starting with your neck, head, jaw, shoulders, arms, back, and legs.

Proceed with chosen meditation or initiation.
