CHAPTER 10:
MEDITATION 101
You are never alone or helpless. The force that guides the stars guides you
too.
—Shrii Shrii Anandamurti; Indian philosopher, social revolutionary,
author, composer
Meditation, otherwise known as sitting still and thinking about nothing, is one
of those things that can be just as stupidly simple as it is surprisingly hard. It
reminds me of those contests where a bunch of people stand around a brand-
new car or truck, and whoever leaves their hands on it the longest gets to take
it home. The winner winds up on the front page of her local paper, victorious
and  sleepy,  smiling  from  behind  the  wheel  of  her  newly-won  ride  with  a
thumbs up for the camera: “Tarrytown’s very own Jill Boender was the proud
winner of the 2012 Chevy Stand Off, held in Green Bay, Wisconsin, this past
weekend.  Jill  beat  out  68  other  contestants  from  around  the  country  by
standing for 173 hours and 9 minutes in the Home Depot parking lot with her
hands placed with unyielding determination on the hood of what would soon
be  her  new  Chevy  Silverado.  ‘I’m  so  excited  I  won,’  she  said.  ‘There  was
some stiff competition, some folks who I thought would never back down, but
I really brought my A-game.’”


With meditation, the simplicity is equally misleading. That’s all I have to do
to connect with Source Energy? Sit there and do nothing? It can’t be that easy.
Well . . . it is.
And it’s not.
Which is why it’s called a meditation practice.
When  you  shut  up  and  meditate  for  even  five  minutes  and  start  to  really
notice  the  thoughts  that  are  squirreling  around  in  your  brain,  it’s  rather  .  .  .
illuminating.  If  you’re  like  most  people,  the  majority  of  your  thoughts  are
about as valuable and interesting as a bunch of two-year olds fighting over a
sippy cup. The goal is to quiet your mind of the chatter so you can connect to
Source Energy and instead listen to your inner guidance.
I’m going to give you the breakdown on how to meditate, but first I want to
recommend that you start small and work your way up. Try meditating for five
to ten minutes each day at first and add on time as you get less squirmy.
There’s  no  right  way  or  wrong  way  to  do  this,  no  set  amount  of  time,  no
correct things to feel, no rules about how you have to sit or where you have to
do it. All that matters is that you do it if you want to massively improve your
life. It’s like drinking lots of water or exercising regularly or not badmouthing
other  people—you  don’t  have  to  do  it,  and  the  temptation  to  blow  it  off  is
extremely large, but if you make a habit of it, not only will you start to crave it,
but  your  entire  life  will  change.  Because  when  we  meditate,  we  practice
getting into The Vortex and connecting to Source Energy, which automatically:
• Brings us into the present moment
• Raises our frequency
• Opens us up to receive unlimited information and ideas
• Relaxes us
• Relieves stress
• Strengthens our intuition and ability to focus
• Allows us to hear our inner voice more clearly
• Fills us with light and love


• Puts us in a good mood
• Helps us love ourselves
Meditating, and being in The Vortex, is like riding
the airstream of awesomeness.
Here  are  the  extremely  short  and  simple  steps  of  some  different  ways  to
meditate:
BASIC MEDITATION
• Sit in a comfortable, cross-legged position on the floor, or in a chair,
with your hands on your knees or in your lap.
• Sit up straight and relax your entire face, especially your jaw and your
forehead.
• Close your eyes, or, if it helps you focus and not fall asleep, keep them
open and gaze softly at a spot on the ground a couple feet in front of you.
• Focus on your breathing. Notice it moving in and out of your body; you
don’t have to breathe in any special way. Just focus on it.
• Gently release any thoughts that come into your brain and refocus on
your breathing. Keep your mind as clear and empty as possible and listen
for intuitive hits that may or may not come through.
Tah-dah! That’s it.
OPTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
1. Set a timer. You’ve got enough distracting thoughts without checking
the clock to see how long you’ve been at it every thirty seconds.


2. Light a candle and focus on it. Sometimes having a place to rest your
eyes can help you get centered and in the Zone. Sit and face a candle that
you place on the floor in front of you while you meditate and see if that
works for you.
3. Imagine a bright beam of light shooting down from the sky, shining in
through the top of your head, running through your entire body, out your
bottom and up to the sky again so that it makes a complete circle. I
sometimes find this easier to focus on than the ever-popular breath
method, plus it fills me up with energy and light and makes me feel more
deeply connected to Source Energy.
4. Use a mantra. Sometimes when the squirrels in my head are
