Meditation 24/7
I bought a book called Meditation 24/7; it's essentially a guide to making daily activities meditations in and of themselves, until you get to the point where you're almost always meditating. I need to start getting more into it; my mental, physical and spiritual health is pretty out of shape; meditation would be a big step in the right direction. I've really let myself go; used to be able to control fire with my mind when I was a little kid; among a bunch of other strange abilities of an extrasensory and supernatural/paranormal nature.
I still occasionally get little hunches, but by and large, most of my childhood powers went away as I became a teenager and started partying and getting into drugs and alcohol to fit in with the "cool" kids so I could stop being seen as a freaky little demon child (my town was really devout; word spread around school that I was a witch because I could see things others couldn't; do things most would say is impossible). The most wild thing that's ever happened to me is a close call between a UFO encounter, (one of three that I've had), and a separate incident where I traveled through space/time and ended up in an alternate reality not too unlike the original one, just a little different in terms of colors and the choices people made.
...That last one freaked me out pretty badly. Fortunately it's only happened once; totally by random too; I wasn't TRYING to travel between different realities; if I could do it on purpose, I'd go back to my original reality.
I sometimes wonder about that...if that Universe somehow created another "me" when I slipped into this one....or if my mom and dad from that Universe just ended up losing their little boy forever, because he fell through a wormhole or something in his sleep...
....I try not to think about that though; it's too sad.
Sorry....kind of got off topic there.

Wow! I'd say go for it!!! That's my goal. Go with joy and be at your heart, your heart is the lamp that guides you anywhere. Let go and let God. Be.

meditation is a state of being you can have it all the time if you have necessary awareness.

meditaion
Get comfortable and prepare to sit still for a few minutes. After you stop reading this, you’re going to simply focus on your own natural inhaling and exhaling of breath.
Focus on your breath. Where do you feel your breath most? In your belly? In your nose? Try to keep your attention on your inhale and exhale.
Follow your breath for two minutes. You can use the breath ball—inhaling as the ball expands, exhaling when the ball contracts.

This is how I do it: I lay down on my bed, on my back, with my hands around my body, then I relax, when a thought comes into my mind, I just let it be and then it fades away because I am not feeding it ( I am not focusing on it ) and I keep doing this until there is no more chattering ( that inner voice that talks 24/24 disappears ).
Last night I had one of the most peaceful session of meditation that I had in months, it was pure bliss!

Beautiful. When we give attention to our thoughts then we feed them with energy and the thoughts are never-ending. When we withdraw our energy from thinking then the incessant internal mental chatter becomes quiet. In the absence of thinking there is no mind to be experienced. In the absence of mind we get a glimpse of what we really are.
Peace

Try becoming completely open to all your feelings of depression. This is difficult because these feelings are painful and we want to avoid pain. Simply be present with the depression and open yourself to going deeper into it. You may find that you go through the depression into the deeper feelings which underlie your depression. Again, these deeper feelings will probably be painful, but stay completely present with these deeper painful feelings and go deeper into them. Be open to whatever happens. You may find that you go into still deeper painful feelings. Just be present and open. Completely feel whatever you are feeling. Eventually you break through the deepest level and then you find yourself resting in peace.
Brandon Bays describes this process in her book The Journey.
Peace
