Any tips on meditation before going to sleep?

Hello all

I just wanted to ask about any specific kinds of meditation before you go to sleep? Any you recommend?

I've noticed then when I do try to meditate I hear some noise-like some banging or some kind of movement-is there something I should know about here?

Thanks guys,

Lots of love,

S xxxx

Maybe you will end up in a trance-like state which might be dangerous. I hear bangings and stuff too when I try. Now I do meditations earlier in the day or an hour before I sleep.

Oh ok-thanks for that it's always good to know:)

But do you have any idea of why you hear these banging noises II?

Hey Lj,

I meditate before going to sleep because it's often the easiest time for me to do so. I hear bangs and cracks, i get flashes of light and my wife and children seem to be tuned into my meditation as well sometimes - I don't consider any of it dangerous just a test of my ability to surrender and let go as is all life/dream. I used to just meditate on my third eye although recently and after reading the emerald tablets of thoth I focus my attention on alternate nights from my head one night to my body the next to the head again the next and so on. Whichever end I focus on needs to be pointing North and this is supposed to balance polarities and give better health and mental functioning, just experimenting with it at the moment to see what happens really, its on one of the later tablets i think like 10,11 or 12 if you want to check it out. Definately does something weird and wonderful for me anyway.

Question

Hi everyone,

i meditate last thing at night too, I find its the best time for me to do it as all my physical work has been done, it's quiet outside so no noise interferance, it's trully beautiful,

there's been the odd occasion when i've gone so deep into meditation that it feels like i've gone to sleep but i'm asking myself am i going into trance as i'd like to work with spirit in this field, who knows?

love and light

Kia ora, hello,

I've posted steps for a 'mindful meditation' (by Deepak Chopra) in the 'My Space' part of SF. Look in 'My Angelicious Space' post #16. It's a good one to do for 15 minutes at night before retiring to bed.

Hi lj

I was told not to meditate before going to sleep too, but i just do a little tune in after i've said my prayers for protection, blessing, guidance, and sent out distant healing to people and animals and prayed for peace in the world.. i just tune in quickly and sometimes see my guide and get a quick message.. then i usually just drop off to sleep quick.

If ur having trouble getting to sleep there's a yoga practice u can do lying down in bed. U just tighten up ur muscles and then releasing them, starting with ur toes, ur feet, ur ankles, ur knees, etc etc .. after that just place ur hands on your either side of ur belly button and that usually helps u to relax and nod off .... sweet dreams to u

love n light

Hahaha, now that's just trippy (in the best possible sense) Jan!!!! Lol

I just came back here to suggest the very same yoga practice for I use it too, lol. In fact, lastnight in bed while I was performing this ritual and the mindful meditation, I thought, "Ah, yes, must remember to post this technique."

I'm an open vessel to glorious universal energy at these times whilst meditating as I cleanse myself of the days energies. So, I guess either you, or I, telepathically transmitted this message, hmmm?

Anyway, it's flippin'ilicious fantasticilicious when it happens between strangers, it mostly happens with family & acquaintances.

Awesome, awesome, awesome!
