If you are one of the millions of people who suffer from headaches you may have chosen to consider alternative treatments as an addition to medications or perhaps even as a replacement for them. Meditation is one such treatment and its roots are, in fact, very old.
has been used in cultures around the world and through many centuries. It is considered a form of mind and body healing and it is intended to balance a person's physical, mental and emotional states. Stress and tension are often implicated in headache pain and meditation is a way to decrease anxiety, leaving your mind and body relaxed and comfortable. Meditation can relax breathing patterns, lower blood pressure and reduce or remove stress, which can then reduce headache frequency and severity.
Concentrative Meditation
Concentrative meditation is a form of meditation that focuses on something simple such as a breath, image, or sound. The idea is to calm the mind and bring about a strong awareness and clarity within oneself. It essentially allows you to narrow your focus.
A basic way to try concentrative meditation is to sit quietly and calmly; you should focus your attention on just breathing. Since anxiety tends to yield labored, rapid breathing, the aim is to focus breathing and slow it down so that it is calmer and more regular. By focusing on the inhalation and exhalation of breath, you are practicing a simple but effective form of meditation. Your mind should then become more relaxed and clear as you continue to focus and you may experience a sense of tranquility.
Mindfulness Meditation
Mindfulness meditation is a way of training your mind to remain in the present moment. It's a way of taking note of both conscious and unconscious thought. With mindfulness meditation, you become aware of what is happening within your body as well as your surroundings. Try sitting in a place free from external noise or interference. Allow your mind to run freely and accept all of the thoughts that you experience. Try not to judge them or become too involved in them, but simply let them enter and exit your mind.
Stress Management
Meditation is thought to have many benefits on stress from different areas of life, whether that is home, work or personal related stress. By using meditation to cope with stress, your headaches will hopefully become a thing of the past.
Ease Pain
Frequent and intense headache pain can really decrease quality of life, affecting relationships and functioning in both work and home. Despite a great deal of research focused on new drug treatments as well as investigations into causes of headaches, many people still prefer a non-pharmaceutical approach to easing pain. Meditation is touted as an effective way to address pain without the potential side effects of conventional treatment. It's worthwhile to try meditation and see if it makes a difference in your headaches.
There isn't really a right or wrong way to perform meditation; the aim is to spend time on yourself. It's a way of giving your mind and body the care it deserves and you may find that a reduction in stress and headaches is only one of many benefits you experience.

Enjoy meditating!
Meditation is an exercise and practise where we seek to discover our own inner Source. Through meditation we can learn to identify with a vast, infinite consciousness that embodies peace, light and abiding satisfaction. Everybody has these divine qualities of inner peace and joy, it is just that at the moment we are not aware of them. Meditation is our conscious effort to experience these qualities and make them part of our nature.
To practice meditation we don’t need to follow a particular religion; anybody can meditate, the only requirement is our conscious aspiration to silence the thoughts of the mind. At the same time if we can have the help of a qualified teacher and associate with others who meditate then our progress will be quicker and more assured. We gain inspiration by meditating with others and following a certain path of meditation.
There are many different approaches to meditation but ultimately the various teachings of meditation share a common objective; to stop our mental thoughts. In essence meditation is an experience where we are not using the mind to think. If we can empty our mind of thoughts, then we will be able to enter into a meditative consciousness. When we enter into this meditative consciousness we actually find our inner being, our inner pilot will spontaneously meditate on our behalf. In the beginning we may need to make an effort to silence the mind. However when we have achieved this task of silencing the mind we find meditation is something that is very spontaneous and natural.
To be able to be able to go from an ordinary mental consciousness to this elevated consciousness we need to master the practice of concentration. To concentrate we only focus on one thing at a time; we need to avoid getting distracted by thoughts and emotions. To help us achieve this there are various meditation exercises, which help us to silence the mind. These exercises can include the use of mantra, visualization exercises and concentrating on certain objects.
Unless we are very fortunate, meditation may not come easily, but if we practice regularly we will begin to increase our meditative capacity and over time we will learn how to experience the lasting peace and satisfaction that meditation can give us. As Sri Chinmoy says of meditation
“Meditation gives us peace of mind without a tranquillizer. And unlike a tranquillizer, the peace of mind that we get from meditation does not fade away. It lasts for good in some corner of the inmost recesses of our aspiring heart.” [1]
But to describe the experience of real meditation in words is always inadequate. It is one thing to talk about peace and love but it is only when we meditate that we can experience these qualities as a living reality.

[1] Excerpt from The Seeker's Mind by Sri Chinmoy
R.Pettinger has studied meditation under the guidance of Sri Chinmoy for 7 years. He teaches meditation classes in his home town of Oxford. For more articles on meditation and spirituality see: http://www.writespirit.net/blog
Meditation can be practiced in many ways and there are several meditation exercises available for people with different objectives. For people who are body-oriented, there various physical forms of exercise can be used to get in touch with the inner self. For the heart-oriented, prayer is considered the best form of attunement; for the intellect-oriented, meditation is their path to enlightenment. All types of meditations follow the same pattern where they begin with transforming the body, then move through the heart, next they arrive at the mind and then they go beyond. Meditation exercises are designed for reducing stress, building self-confidence and self-esteem, and maintaining good health.
One of the most popular meditation exercises is the breathing exercise where the meditators have to focus on inhalation and exhalation. The idea here is to become aware of the gap between inhalation and exhalation that is present for a fraction of second. Breathing meditation is popular as it is easy to understand and practice. The benefits of this exercise are also visible after a relatively shorter span of time when compared with other meditation exercises. This type of meditation can be done either by quietly sitting in a posture or by coupling it with other actions such as walking and eating.
Another type of meditation is the objective kind of meditation where the meditators choose any object to look at and then meditate on its origin. Meditators can allow their thoughts to wander to the origin of the object, the process of its making and then various stages involved in bringing the object to its present situation. This type of meditation is ideal for beginners as they may find it easier to relate to things that they can see than to something abstract.
Meditators who may be unsure about the benefits or the way of performing meditation exercises can consult qualified health professionals, specialists, or reputed teachers for advice.

Do you feel overhwelmed and at odds with your life? Does it seem like your mind rambles incessantly, as if you can never experience a moment of peace? Many people in our modern world describe their lives as frenzied and imbalanced. The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way. Many Asian cultures have understood something for the past several thousand years that modern people are gradually beginning to discover: That we have to learn how to work with our minds in a conscious and healthy way if we are to attract peace, abundance, and joy into our lives. Without a consistent method of cultivating awareness, we will be forever resigned to circumstances that feel out of our control. That is why so many modern people are struggling. We have lost the ancient practice of connecting our inner world of thoughts, feelings, and energy with our outer world of the circumstances we attract into our lives. Because of this, everything that appears seems to be random. We lose trust in the unfolding of the universe. As a result, our minds are filled with anxiety and worry, which only attracts more seeming chaos and confusion into our lives. Does this sound familiar?
The law of attraction states that what you focus on expands. If your thoughts and feelings resonate with anxiety and confusion, then you will attract more of those qualites to you through your relationships, work, finances, etc. The key is not to trick our minds into creating positive thoughts through affirmations or other methods, but to develop space around the workings of our minds altogether. Herein lies the magic of mindfulness meditation. Mindfulness is a method of becoming acutely aware of everything that happens within the scope of our perception. We shed light on what we think, feel, and sense. We make conscious all of the subconscious material that typically sabotages our good intentions. We don't try to change it. Instead, we just become extremely aware of it. We do this by sitting still and doing nothing but watching how our mind works without attachment or judgment. We just sit and witness what takes place within us and we start to draw parallels between what we believe to be true and what we are constantly attracting into our lives.
Many people, particulalry Westerners, try meditation for a period of time and then give up after getting frustrated with the process. This is because we are always looking for results. We are deeply attached to our expectations of what should happen. Most of us try to use meditation to shut our minds down, to dwell in a space of 'no thought.' If you try to use meditation to stop thinking, you are in for a rude surprise. You simply cannot do it. In fact, the harder you try to stop thinking, the louder and more obnoxious your thoughts become. This is not the way. The main intention of mindfulness is to be fundamentally OK with whatever arises as you practice. Whether you have a good thought or a bad thought, you give it the same attention. You remain neutral. By doing this, you stop feeding the energy of your thoughts. This is the first step in cutting through the vicious cycle of
thought-feeling-reaction that keeps so many of us habitually attracting the wrong kinds of energy, people, and circumstances into our lives. If we believe what we think, the energy of the thought will evolve into a feeling. The momentum of the feeling will cause us to react to it, which will create a cause in the world that will always lead to an effect. The effect will always be a reflection of that initial thought impulse. So, if your thoughts are habitually centered around negativity, greed, fear, or narcissism, then the effects you will see in your life will mirror this back to you.
Mindfulness is a process of becoming truly proactive for the first time in your life. Most of the time, we are just reacting to what we think and feel, which brings us endless cycles of conflict and disappointment. When we remain neutral to our thoughts and feelings, then we will gradually make contact with an aspect of ourselves that is spontaneous and awake. We will act (not react) from this place. We will attract what we truly desire into our lives based on a conscious process of heightening our senses. And, yes, at some point the mind does slow down. We experience wonderful and refreshing moments of peace and openness. The universe is naturally seen as a benevolent place.
Instead of our typical attempts to outsmart the universe, mindfulness is a humbling process of surrender and gratitude.
Cultivate space, endless space, around your thoughts and feelings. Allow your spirit to inhabit your body fully. Don't buy into self-defeating storylines and beliefs. Don't try to force yourself to see the positive in life or repeat useless affirmations that you have no innate connection with. Instead, taste the perfection of this moment as it is. If you can feel in your bones that you are fundamentally OK and that life is precious, you will attract much more meaningful relationships with people, better health, more fulfilling work and more prosperity on all levels of being. That is the power of mindfulness.

We are meditating, or perhaps just walking on the beach, and WHAM! the insight strikes. Wow! But then what happens? In a millisecond, the interfering mind elbows right in, “WHAT WAS THAT? WHAT WAS THAT?” and our insight evaporates like ephemeral foam on a wave.
If only we could keep that meddlesome, nosy mind away for one more moment, then the insight would remain, and deeper and deeper we would go until there would be that immense flash that shifts our consciousness into glorious new levels.
But not our luck; we can’t even watch our breath for more than a few minutes before the manic mind takes over, let alone expect it to behave itself when a tremendous insight crops up. Our hyper mind must immediately identify the insight and figure it all out, completely destroying the subtly that all insights are.
So, what to do? How can we keep the mind quiet so that these insights can ripen? We can’t use a power play, where when an insight arises we force the mind away, because the one doing the forcing is the very mind itself, laughing at us and our pathetic attempts to quiet it. Let’s face it; our minds are powerful, and not easily tamed.
Okay, let’s try this; the mind gets involved because it is protecting us – that’s the mind’s job, and it performs that job well. If we are about to step on a snake, the moment the mind glimpses the snake our body will involuntarily jump back as a reflex, that’s how fast and efficient our mind is, and in many ways, this keeps us alive.
If this is the case, what chance do we have of ever convincing the mind to just leave us alone during insights - but perform it’s regular efficient job with everything else? Fat chance! It doesn’t work that way. So, what can we do? If we don’t solve this problem, our insights will never have a chance to deepen. Fortunately, there is a way to solve this predicament, and it involves a strict training of the mind.
The “jhana” levels of deep concentration meditation explain it best:
In regular meditation, the mind is still caught up in the busy mind with thoughts gone wild, but at the first level of jhana, there are periods where the thoughts subside temporarily, causing rapture and pleasure to suffuse the body. If an insight is experienced during first jhana, the insight will deepen for a long moment before the mind ruins it, resulting in a shift in consciousness.
At the second level of jhana, thoughts are no longer present at all, only feelings of unification, serenity, and internal confidence. Insights experienced at this level will remain for an extended period of time. One might understand, for example, that an awareness permeates all elements, cells and molecules, and that consciousness is the very protégé of this awareness, and therefore all beings, all things in the universe are connected, with no differentiation in any way at a fundamental level. This insight will remain, and manifest itself as unconditional love.
The third level of jhana involves a pleasurable feeling accompanied by equanimity. When insights arise now, the mind cannot jump on them as it has in the past. Now the mind is subdued, tranquil, and the insights go deeply within the meditator with tremendous shifts in consciousness that alter the meditator’s basic being.
At the fourth level of jhana, there are only equanimity and mindfulness, with a complete absence of pleasure and pain. There is only bright awareness now; the mind is now only a mosquito trying to bite an iron bull and cannot interfere with insights at all. The mediator’s insights now deepen dramatically, particularly when the meditator focuses his or her attention on such things as the body, feelings, consciousness, and truths.
Now the insights come non-stop, and the meditator, no longer encumbered by mind, holds on to none of the insights, and as a result, the insights come faster and faster, and still the meditator lets them all go. Then, one day, the great insight appears momentarily, and the meditator understands, in his or her heart, that they are now free.
So don’t be satisfied with that first insight, regardless of how powerful it is. It is only the beginning of what you truly seek – ultimate freedom. Don’t allow your mind to steal your insights, identify, and label them, or capture them and begin using them for its own purposes. Practice your meditation, calm your mind, and your fear will disappear while your entire life changes and has a new meaning. Now you will understand things that never in your wildest imagination had you ever thought of discovering.
Begin with only a few minutes of meditation each night before retiring. If you do it every night, no matter what, in time you will want to do it more. Then you will be on your way to tremendous insights, and a new life.

A “thoughtless” person can be very dangerous to ourselves, and unpredictable as well. Thoughtless people are all over the place, we seem to run into them constantly these days, and when we do, we must be prepared to respond in the appropriate manner.
Perhaps “thoughtless” is not the correct terminology here. When we typically think of a thoughtless person, we think of a person who is actually filled with thoughts, constant thoughts, and not thoughtless at all. They are filled with endless thoughts about themselves, so much so, that there is no room for others, or the opinions of others. This person is filled with himself to the point that he no longer notices others, or attempts to help them. He only helps himself. If he does happen to notice someone else, it is usually from the standpoint of contempt.
But this is not the thoughtless people that I am writing about. I am writing about truly thoughtless people – people who can see so clearly that they act without the burden of thought interfering with their actions. You know who they are; the soldier who falls on a grenade to save his buddies, the mother who gives her life for her child, our champions in the movies that so endear us with their selfless actions, the football heroes that sacrifice all personal safety to help their team win.
But when thought has a chance to interfere, we become careful. Thought is the protector and architect of our “self,” our ego, and as such will hesitate when it comes to selfless action. If Mother Teresa wasn’t a thoughtless person, she would have thought twice about risking her life in a disease ridden country to help poor kids that could never pay her back.
Therefore, thoughtless people are a danger to our “selves.” The reason they are a danger is because when we see how a thoughtless person’s actions are pure, without agenda, without consideration or cunningness to receive something in return, or save themselves, then our small “self” feels ashamed, and when our self feels ashamed, it begins to justify its cowardly actions.
So how should we respond to these thoughtless people that we run into constantly? I think that we should embrace them – recognize them for the heroes and heroines that they truly are. But since they are thoughtless, the praise that they receive will go in one ear and out the other, as will any criticism that they are in some way irresponsible.
They can’t help it that they are thoughtless, they just see life differently. They see life as it actually is, not merely tools for our personal security. The thoughtless person envisions all of us as one, and whatever they do; it is never considered to be a sacrifice. How could giving up a self, that doesn’t exist in a thoughtless person’s mind, be sacrificed for anything.
Mother Teresa could easily have died in India, and if she would have, she would not have felt that she was any better or different from the children she saved. This understanding only occurs to thoughtless people, because thoughtless people are humanity; not merely separate parts of humanity. Did Mother Teresa care if the children were Catholic, or Hindu, or Buddhist? No, she never asked; she knew that such unimportant things such as religious beliefs only mattered with thoughtful people, never thoughtless people. Thoughtless people only worried about their fellow human beings.
So as meditators, we watch our thoughts, and we are constantly asked how we can survive in this world without relying solely on thinking.
I ask in return; have you noticed the world lately, one that is completely ruled by thought?

A lot of people I know laugh at it. Whenever I bring up the subject, they give me a smirk and change the subject. How could meditation have any kind of health benefits? Isn't it no different from sitting in a chair and watching some mindless TV? Well, in actuality, meditation, when practiced correctly, is a lot different from sitting in a chair and watching mindless TV. This article is going to share with you just a few of the many health benefits that come from meditating. I have no doubt that after reading this, you will see how meditation may just be the one thing that will improve your health considerably.
One of the main benefits of meditation, and maybe one of the most important is that it lowers your oxygen consumption. The reason for this is because meditation, when done correctly, actually slows down the heart rate. This in turn leads to shallower, more regular breathing, which is turn lowers oxygen consumption. This in turn is better for your heart as well as your whole respiratory system.
Another benefit of meditation is for heart patients. Those who have either suffered from heart attacks or who have heart problems benefit greatly from meditation because they build up more tolerance to exercise, which is important in getting back in shape after a heart attack.
Another great benefit of meditation is for muscle tension. Meditating regularly is great for relieving tension headaches and other muscle aches. It even helps in reducing the pain from arthritis. As a natural pain reliever, meditation is a near miracle. I overcame numerous painful earaches simply by meditating.
For women, mediation is great in combating pre menstrual syndrome. Many of the terrible symptoms of PMS are reduced from meditating, including cramps and headaches.
If you want to build up your immune system, mediation is an excellent way to accomplish this. By regular meditation, your cells will rebuild themselves quicker over time. In general, you will simply feel better if you regularly meditate.
There's a lot more but this should give you a pretty decent idea of how beneficial meditation can be to you. So while a lot of my friends are laughing, I'm feeling better than I have ever felt in my life.
Meditation: Try it sometime. You might find the results surprising.

Stress can strike you at any time. It can hit you hard and the way you deal with a situation can be made a million times worse simply because of the stress build up. One of the cool aspects of meditation is your ability to use meditation to gain an instant calming affect even when you are not in the traditional meditation posture.
The first step in the meditation for Instant Calming is to practice your breathing. When you feel that stress is creeping up on you simply practice breathing lightly like a mouse in and out. Focus on the quality of your breathing; ensure that it is light and even. Then slowly make the breathing deeper.
Next in this process is to ensure that your posture is balanced and even. Keep your back straight and your head up. Many people who become stressed will slouch their back and have a hunched look.
Clear your mind. Imagine in you mind that you are bathing in a wave of relaxing waves. Consciously feel the waves flowing past taking away the anxiety and stress. Ensure that the waves constantly flow through your body.
The next important step is to acknowledge the stress and look at the root cause of the stress. The worst thing you can do with meditation is to deny the stress. In your mind during the meditation speak the words clearly in your mind, "This stress is real but I have the ability to hand it. Let me think straight and find a way to deal with this stress and to cope immediately with the challenges in front of me."
Continue repeating this statement in your meditations for a period not less than ten minutes. It is now time in this meditation to take control of this stress. Focus on the person who has caused this stress and robbed you of the control you have the right too. Take control of your mind and rid your mind of the stress.
Finally as you come out of this meditation focus on these words, "I have a right to a free and peaceful mind. Nothing anyone can do or say to me will rob me of this right." Speak these words each time you need this meditation.

Read my review of the one of best meditation methods I've come across to date at http://personaldevelopmentreviews.org/index.php/2007/04/17/secrets-of-abundant-energy
There are many ways to meditate. Some of the most popular ways of meditation include chanting a mantra while sitting and eyes closed. The mantra should be a word that has no meaning to you so that you do not get distracted by the meaning. For example if you chant "car' or "Toyota', you probably be thinking about what your next car going to be, although this might help you to manifest a new car quickly in the near future. If you have watch Ronda bryne's 'The Secret", you will know what I mean.
Another popular way of meditation is to focus on one object in your mind's eye, for example you can visualize a candle in front of your mind's eye. Keep your focus on the candle and gently let go of any intrusive thoughts like have I paid my parking fines.
Also another way of meditation is to visualize a clock on the wall in your mind's eye, and watch it tick second by second or minute by minute. This can help you focus your mind.
If you are looking for any insight into a problem or an issue, Mentally say to your self that you wish to know this or that. And continue doing the meditation. Sometimes after awhile, your subconscious mind you show you something. It will show you in the form of a image or feeling. When you are relaxed, you should be able to know that an insight is given.
I sometimes like to use a pendulum when doing meditation. A pendulum can be a ring with a string tied to it, or you can buy one from new age stores.
Before I start, I will test the response. You should already have calibrated it. You should already know the position for YES and position for NO. Most common position for YES is swing in front of you and side to side is NO.
Sit in a comfortable chair and hold the pendulum in one hand. It is preferable to have a chair that can support the elbow holding the pendulum.
There are too many things to ask your inner guidance, but after 5 minutes querying you inner guidance, you would naturally fall into a meditative state, you brain wave would have slowed down and you now feel relaxed.
I once ask my inner guidance if a certain area on my physical body has a past life problem, In the meditative stage, it show me a warrior who was impale from behind. It may be possible to query your inner guidance as to how to heal the problem. But you need to ask the right question.
The advantages of meditation are widely known, and as a practice it is garnering more and more respect amongst alternative and traditional medical professionals the world over.
