Newbie here looking to develop meditation knowledge

Hi Everyone

Im new here and fairly new to meditation. Im reading Eckhart Tolle atm as it resonates quite deeply with me. I have a 6 month old and a two year old so am not working atm and developing a 20min x 2 meditation per day practice comes with its challenges! Im trying to practice "TM" style meditation and using a mantra and mala beads, although Im not completing the official course as the $$$ is not an option. Also I feel that meditation/mantras should be free to all and accessible to all as we are all one and all humanity should be able to benefit from such practices I believe. Thoughts ect welcome :)) Namaste

Welcome Jenny Q -

You're going to find a ton of info on meditation in this forum especially the meditation thread Good for you for learning how to meditate while raising young children. The great benefits will rub off on them. I remember when I used to pick a spot to meditate my young ones would end up playing there. It's the same with pets. You will create lovely energy that heals and uplifts the space. You can shop around on YouTube and discover a lot of for-free meditation techniques, guided meditations and music.

Hugs
Uma

Hello Jenny Q and welcome to the forum. A lot of knowledge out there should be free I completely agree. In my own path of finding the "right" path I often wonder if people share their knowledge just to sell me stuff I don't really need. But like others said YouTube is quite good to find meditation techniques.

I guess you will get a ton of meditation information but alot of it will be conflicting - and right, $$$ for an imaginary sound that isn't even a word? Welcome to the jungle!

The idea that someone charges money to show you treasures that already sit at your feet is repugnant. But--they have their way, and you have yours--let it pass. You will find as you begin to quiet your mind in meditation that their is an inner voice that will guide you; and you will follow with no effort. The treasures will rise up and blossom, and you will realize that it was you whispering to you all along. Welcome!
