Do any of you stick music on when you meditate? I try and meditate 3 times a week and play proper calming music (sounds of the earth style) or stuff by Enigma (have to cos it’s not very quiet in this house).

When I first started I’d get so into it that I wouldn’t be aware I was even breathing, I go into proper trance like states sometimes. Was a bit unnerving at first but eventually got used to it.

Also try and do it outside well away from modern life if you can. I meditated next to a river in the middle of nowhere when I was in France. that was very interesting to say the least. felt connected to nature, very cool stuff! :love:

Also if like me you listen to chilling music then try this guy out, http://www.youtube.com/user/PaulFromStokeUK some of his stuff is brilliant!

I have done so in the past yup. Anything to focus the mind, quite often I just listen to whatever sounds may be there. Most often I do this:

Close eyes, sit upright, become aware of breath, focus on breath, become aware of thoughts, notice thoughts (without judgment or any need to change them, simply excepting them as just thoughts), gently turn focus back to breath, notice thoughts, breath, thoughts, breath….and so on.

bit of a summery of a summery but you get the idea.

That’s kind of how I do it, always focus on breathing correctly to start with and going from there. Also have you had anything weird happen to you when meditating? sort of like floaty feelings and a sense of being able to move about my room even though I’m sitting down. I get it when I’m in a proper deep state. It’s very weird man!

Not yet been going for silence, I find music so distracting I’d be all nodding my head and pulling the face. It’s hard to get silence in london tho, there’s always a siren, chavs on the street shouting, and a washing machine whirring or something. Wish I could teleport to a secluded spot in the lake district next to a river..

Yeah that’s what it’s like here. I have to focus on the music to block out all the other sounds. If you find the right piece I find it kind of puts you into a trance!

Man, you would of loved it next to that river in France, It was a quality spot. no man made noises, just nature. Definitely getting my arse out there again! 😉

Depends what you mean by a higher state of conscioness really. Meditation is a hightend state of awareness put simply.
