i never understood how to meditate, what is the difference between this and sleeping?
you must sit up? and breathe deeply?
Why not lie down? Does it matter?

hi and thanks for your comment... I totally agree! I have never meditated much and dont claim to be an expert by any means, but when I do it really does have an amazing effect on me... ask my wife!
Although... can we refrain from calling him / her god and go for 'creator' or something else please? Im really not into organized religion and that word makes me think of that.
Also it has the potential to turn this into a christian bashing session which I would also like to avoid if possible. Ta

Unfortunatly no i can not refrain from calling him/her/it God... Would you prefer Father?
Just so you know, im not "into" organized religion either... or any religion for that matter.
If Christians come here to bash people, let them come... This is not a religious thread so they will get their posts removed for being off topic...
Besides, Meditation is rarely a part of Christian teaching... They prefer to pray... i say let their prayers fall on deaf ears...
Praying is talking to God... Meditation is listening to him...
That is why i said even small amounts of meditation is great

There is a reason why Yoga is like thousands of years old. If it didn't have any effect it would not exist now.
