I need a little help.
I know I am not new to the forum, however I haven't been practicing meditation enough, and I know this is something I need to do. I notice as I have gotten a bit older I am having a much harder time concentrating on things, its even hard to get through a movie.
What is the best way to get started? I know I need to connect with energy more through meditation and also with my "higher power" (as now I am also having much confusion with).
Any advice would be great....I hate to sound like such a newbie, I know when I meditate with my stones I do find that easier, because its something to focus on. But clearing the mind is very very hard for me to do and I don't really know how to.
Once again, and suggestions or advice would be great.
Love and Light.

Stay with your stones, and know it is totally impossible to "clear your mind" 100%.

If you find it easier to concentrate while you have stones with you, then there is nothing wrong with continuing that. You could also try concentrating on your breathing, just feel it come in and out.
The most important thing is to be gentle with yourself when your mind does wander...I always imagine the interrupting thoughts as balloons and allow them to float away so I can return to my meditation. It gets easier with time, but always be gentle with yourself :)
