Meditation with background Music?

Most people find it difficult during exercising their meditation, to focus and to empty totally their minds.
There is a technique helping to eliminate that problem.
Start by choosing a certain daytime to your convenience to do your every day meditation.
Over time, it will become your most pleasant hour of your day, you'll awaiting it from day to day. It will become your most intimate time during your day and a secret place for you to retire to.

You can meditate how long you ever like and have time to. It can be during the daytime or also in evening (but attention - do not fall asleep).
Do it for 10 minutes or for ten hours, it's by you.
You can do it sitting in a comfortable chair or lay down supine.
Your position should be comfortable enough to permit you a complete relaxation.
During your meditation, you should be all over relaxed and not forcing any muscles of your body.
Before you start your meditation relax a little, calm down from stress and try to eliminate any thinking about whatever, even not about the thinking itself.

Focus your attention onto your breathing, follow your respiration with your thoughts, feel how the air goes in and out through your nose and brings a stream of energy to you. (Never breath through your mouth!) Imagine your breathing as a stream of pure energy coming in to you.
Pay attention for your neck, often you'll force it without being conscious about it or feel it.
Try to avoid that because it makes you get headaches.
You respiration should be like that what you've learned from the yoga positions, meaning the complete yoga respiration.

Again, think nothing, try to empty your mind completely.
If you should find that to difficult to do, let your thoughts simple flow without that you pay any attention to them, the mind will never stop with the interior dialog, so the best thing to do is let them simple flow.

A little trick can help stopping your mind from thinking; try to turn your closed eyes up right to the middle of your front between your eyes brown.
There is, following the Indian tradition your third eye and in fact you'll perceive there during deeper meditation states all of your existence or being.
During deeper meditation states you perceived being is not anymore in your body, your body presence will fade away and you'll feel your existence and your being only there - on the third eyes dimension.


Don't scare about any strange sensations or feelings like a warm stream along you spinal column or shiver or else.
You don't have to fear nothing, nothing can happen to you.
You have full control of yourself even if you do not perceive your body anymore, you can wake up whenever you want, in every instant.
You are the master of yourself.


With more practice, you'll start to perceive different colors - choose one of them as your favored one and concentrate to it the next times.
Let yourself slip into this colors till you're one with the color itself.
That can you make happen with every image you like or should arise during your meditation; it can be a flower, the sun, the sea or water generally, it can be love, it can be friendship, it can be whatever you chose and focus on.
In this way you can even program your meditation.
You can concentrate to any purpose to stronger your behavior  on this purpose.  Of course, you should chose only themes that are noble like altruism, love and so on.
Don't chose themes that are not noble they can drive you to bad experiences.
In any case surrender yourself, do never combat any impression or imagine arising during your meditation. Be conscious that nothing can happen to you - you are the master of your meditation.

Use the meditation music technique to ease it for you and to reach deeper meditation states by getting faster real great results.

With meditation you can grow yourself and model your character and your way of life.
The power is inside yourself, use it to make more out of your life.
