whenever i meditate

[firesea]

whenever i visualise during meditation i find i use alot of my energy, how can i stop this? all it is is daydreaming, i shuoldnt need to use loads of energy to visualise, i find it especially hard when trying to meet up with my guides.

ground, breathe, listen to soft music, don't drink coffee or coke (don't laugh it's been done)

meditation does use energy and it is not just daydreaming . learn to pull energy up from the mother earth and down into the crown from the universe whenever you work in psionics or healing or meditation you should never feel drained . if you open your circuits with deep cleansing breaths and then draw in energy from crown soles heart and hands you will come away feeling full of energy not depleted

i prefer to sit in a comfortable arm chair
bare feel on a rug
in a comfortable temperature room
in dim light
i close my eyes and take in 3 deep cleansing breaths in my own time then i bring the energy up through my soles of feet up as far as i can feel it go before i have to breathe out then exhale and bring it up further the next time
continuing until i have lit up my legs
,my abdomen,my arms and finally my crown

Robert bruce is one of my favorites. In the new age section of a book store look for astral dynamics. GREAT read and you can keep it at your bed side for quick reference rather than going back and forth to the good ol pc.

I tend to fall asleep alot when I meditate now...and when I do meditate, it feels as if I dunno, something is near me and I'm getting chills all over my body...and then it feels as though I Obe-ed, but I don't remember seeing anything but darkness...and then a moment later it feels as if I come back into my body. Not sure why this happens, but it does.

For me and since I have done it for so long I find it I feel refreshed, calm and ready for a new day or a good night sleep. If you want pointers look for thing in the Meditating area ^_^

I have heard that 1 to 2 hours of meditation is better than sleeping for 8 hours, I really need to try that and see if it's true. Anyone ever tried this?
