yeh um i think this ones pretty good giv it a try... sit down comfortably liek on a pillow on the ground. cross your legs and lay your hands gently on your lap. place sumthing shiny eg a coin, on the ground about a metre infront of you. let it reflect the sunlight. Absorb urself in its shine. relax and only think about the shine of the coin good luck!  |

mm....I do this kind of meditation...I learned it from a book, it was fiction, but I find it works wonderful. I guess partly because, it does clear my mind from so many thoughts and I am focusing on something.
I breathe in for a count of 3, hold it for a count of 3, and breathe out for a count of 3.
It clears my mind as I focus on one thing. It helps especially when I am in a difficult situation.

Anyone else with any methods for calming one's mind? Clearing it of thoughts?
Come on, need some more!!
This is an issue with me as well; I can't seem to ever completely turn off the stream of thoughts that goes through my head, and recently, I've become aware of the greatly increased need of a technique that would help me out in this area.

And every moment involves me either sending or receiving things that I could do very well without. My "oneness" is me pissed at the fact that my thoughts are being broadcasted, or confused and wondering about the phrases that I pick up.
oh wait, was this a form of meditation, or just a word of general advice? If it's meditation, give some details about what I should do, please please pretty please ate ole buddy.
And if it's not, do you know any techniques that would help me out?

Here's a meditation that has helped me a little bit. Get into a comfortable position, but not to the point where you would fall asleep. Close your eyes and visualize the ocean and the tides. Breathe in and out with the tides.

*nods*
I was taught by a guide a good meditation that can be for relaxing or sleeping using a similar idea.
Picture in your mind of a open ocean. Then imagine a floating raft. Think about how it would move about. Then imagine yourself on tht raft. Let the gental bobing waves lull you to sleep.
