What Are Quart Crystal Singing Bowls?

Quartz crystal singing bowls are a special type of instrument all on their own, and while they may share some things in common with their metal Tibetan bowl counterparts, they have their own separate history, properties, healing qualities, and uses. Read on to find out the way by which the quartz crystal bowls came into existence, how they are uniquely special, and what they are primarily used for.

What Makes Them Special?

Crystal singing bowls are made of pure quartz. The human body is said to have many crystalline structures, such as our bones, dna, blood and even certain parts of the brain, and these structures have a natural resonance with quartz. Even our cells contain silica, the same substance found in quartz. These natural affinities make these crystal singing bowls naturally healing to our bodies. Quartz bowls, unlike their Tibetan counterparts, can also be tuned to a specific note. This makes them perfect for sound healing and the targeted balancing of specific chakras.

While Tibetan bowls have always been in use for spiritual and religious purposes, crystal singing bowls find their roots in a more modern and, some would say, completely unrelated origin. These quartz bowls came into production in the 1980′s as a byproduct of the computer industry. They were used to hold computer chips that needed to be heated to incredibly high temperatures. Scientists would actually throw them away after using them! After a while, someone realized that these crystal bowls, being made of pure quartz, must have special healing qualities and began acquiring and selling these computer-industry byproducts on their own.

The bowls are made through a special and fairly involved process. First the purest sources of silica sand is gathered for the manufacturing process. Then, this sand is dropped into a centrifugal mold heated to over 4000 degrees centigrade. This process melts the sand and fuses them particles into one solid crystal. After that, the crystal is tuned to a specific note, one so strong that it is perceptible even 2000 feet away. The sound qualities of crystal singing bowls rival the highest quality instruments ever produced.

These are just a few facts on the special qualities of quartz crystal singing bowls, and as you explore more, you will be sure to find many more fascinating pieces of information about these objects.

Crystal Singing Bowls Can Harmonize Your Body And Mind

In ancient times, such bowls were made of metal. Now we also have crystal singing bowls. The healing power of rock-crystal bowls is particularly notable. It is believed that rock crystal accumulates clean solar energy, which can harmonize the entire body by passing a flow of fresh energy through its cells. This energy flow affects all body organs, and especially those that are “related” to the sun: heart, plexus, back and eyes.

Crystal Singing Bowls have a unique sound, which is different from the Tibetan bowls made of metal. Depending on the size and thickness of the crystal bowl, it will make different notes. Crystal bowls are renowned worldwide for their powerful resonance and ability to tune the energy of the body at optimal frequencies.

The fact is that every cell in the body produces vibrations, and our bodies respond to other sound vibrations readily. Sound is energy, and our bodies are an interweaving of energies. The energy of sound always affects our bodies. We use sound to communicate and express our feelings and thoughts. Sound acts on the nervous system and creates vibrations in the entire body. This effect has been known for thousands of years, and ancient people often used singing and music for healing.

Theoretically, everything in the universe is in a state of vibration, including people. Modern physics has determined that the universe is composed of small particles, which are in constant motion. This continuous activity creates certain vibrations that can be measured. The human body also creates certain vibrations. Like all things in the universe, singing bowls also have their own unique vibration – it depends on their size, shape, materials and production technology. Contemporary research in physics suggests that different parts of the body resonate with different tones (notes) from singing bowls.

The powerful vibration of crystal singing bowls can pass through the body (it is easy to do for sound, as a human body is 60-80% water) and massage each cell delicately. The human body vibrates at different wavelengths, where each body part has its own frequency. Moreover, healthy organs are well-tuned, while the ill ones are in a dissonant. Singing Bowls can restore the harmonic frequencies by adjusting and stimulating the ill organs and the rest of the body. Furthermore, the sound of crystal singing bowls can restore the nervous system. Healers of antiquity also knew about the impact of music and sound on the chakras, and used it for centuries in the practice of nada yoga.

Today, you can find CDs with recorded music of crystal bowls, as well as books that provide information on how to work with each track. The sound of these bowls is enchanting, healing, soothing, clear, and airy. These magical vibrations penetrate deeply into the body, making it “plunge” into the world of the pure crystal. The clear and rich sound of these bowls make the listener feel “weightless” and “light”. Crystal singing bowls make great energy-rich music for relaxation and healing. These and similar techniques are often used in feng shui.

Meditation Techniques And Healing

If you find yourself struggling with major health problems, or even the daily aches and pains of a stressful life, imagine being able to find true relief through the practice of healing meditation. It can happen! The healing meditation process uses various techniques to allow you to place yourself in a meditative state, focused upon healing issues. These issues may range from insomnia to pain management to stress reduction. Practitioners swear that the use of healing meditation can even help people recover more quickly from major surgery.

Most practitioners of healing meditation techniques utilize some combination of techniques for relaxation and focus. Many of these techniques have been used in stress management and self-hypnosis for decades. Placing them in the context of healing meditation creates a powerful focus on the mind-body connection and allows a sense of self-healing to begin.

Healing meditation techniques.

Following are some of the most common techniques used in healing meditation.

Relaxation exercises.
Part of the act of meditation is placing your body in a more relaxed state. A tense body and a tense mind go together, and you can begin to relax both by learning simple techniques to calm your breathing, muscles, and thoughts. Common relaxation techniques include deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and the use of music. One of the simplest relaxation exercises uses cleansing breaths: Take 4-5 deep breaths. Begin by inhaling slowly and deeply. Hold the breath for at least 5-10 seconds. Then slowly release the breath. As you release it, imagine all sickness or pain leaving your body with each cleansing breath.

Creative visualizations.
Creative visualizations allow us to use the power of the mind to envision anything that is the focus of change. For example, if you want to rid yourself of pain, you can start by visualizing the pain itself as a shadowed place that needs light and warmth. Then imagine a glowing ball of warm light that travels over the pain, releasing it from the cold shadows. By positively visualizing events either symbolically or literally, your mind can bring actual change to your body.

Positive affirmations.
Along with visualizations, positive affirmations can effectively increase your power of more positive thinking. A positive affirmation is a simple statement you say about something you want to be or have happen. It is always stated in positive terms. For example, rather than saying, “I’m going to stop having so much trouble sleeping all the time,” you might say: “My body feels ready for rest, and I am about to sleep peacefully.”

Repetitive sounds.
For centuries, Eastern philosophers have taught the value of using repetitive sounds to enter a deeper meditative state. Techniques may range from the repetitive “ohm” of the transcendental meditation practitioner to the kirtan kriya chants of the yogi to drumming meditation. What these techniques have in common is the ability to clear the mind of everything but the object of its focus during the meditation.

Research studies have shown that meditation can reduce blood pressure, decrease stress, and improve patient attitudes. If you are willing to invest a every day in the practice of one or more healing meditation techniques, you may find that meditation becomes the proverbial apple a day you need to keep traditional medicine away from your door.

Collection of Raw Hematite

With the characteristic, metallic luster for which it is known, each piece of hematite offers a surface that shines almost like graphite, while also showing the coarser edges and qualities of the minerals in which it was formed. Not only beautiful to look upon and curious to study, hematite`s iron composition makes it a one of the more common ores mined for iron, and it is often found to have magnetic properties. In magical practices, crystal healing, and other such spiritual pursuits, hematite is highly valued as a stone that can help keep you grounded. It is used within these purposes sometimes to help maintain focus, and to keep you at the task on hand. Hematite is used sometimes to draw negative energy away, being used to absorb these energies to allow positive influences to reign. Each collection contains approximately 50 raw hematite stones, each measuring from approximately 1″ in diameter to 2″-3″ in length. Please allow for variation in exact sizes and quantities, as these are natural formations.

SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTMENT

What Is Spiritual Enlightenment

Spiritual enlightenment is the basic goal of any spiritual practice that you undertake. Spiritual enlightenment marks the culminating point of your practices: when one attains spiritual enlightenment, one feels the unity of soul with everything and all the mental and physical engagements are left aside. Spiritual enlightenment is the possession of highly evolved souls, and great spiritual masters of the whole world propagate the fundamentals that they experience through spiritual enlightenment.

As it seems, spiritual enlightenment is often categorized into levels for practical purposes. Highest stage of spiritual enlightenment marks the attainment of God, but still there are certain levels through which the individual needs to evolve. It is like rising from the levels of animality to which we often tend to degrade ourselves. From the levels of animality, we rise to the level of humanity, which constitutes our true nature. And further from humanity to divinity, where we merge back in the source from where we have come. Let us, for our practical purpose, put them in stages and analyze the state of being in each stage:

At the very first level of spiritual enlightenment, the individual starts experiencing the reality as it is. It means that your mind ceases to interfere with what you are experiencing. Quite often, we are engaged in continuous talk, gossip, analyzing the environment around us, planning about future, and so on. However, when spiritual enlightenment dawns on your being, you take everything as it is.

At the second stage of spiritual enlightenment, you feel yourself in almost everything around you. You feel that you have some connection to every object and every individual in the world. It is like losing your own individuality. Spiritual enlightenment has its culmination at merging the soul in Supreme Soul, and this is where you start experiencing it. You feel that you are not individual anymore and not separate from anything. You feel that you are in everything and everything is just a part of the Supreme Soul from where you also have emerged.

 

spiritual

 

At the third stage of spiritual enlightenment, you no longer feel connected to everything but realize you are everything. Because spiritual enlightenment gives you the experience of oneness with God, you feel that you are not separate from anything. You are not merely the body, sense, mind, and faculty of intellect: you are what everything else is. This stage of spiritual enlightenment imparts the direct experience of oneness.

Spiritual enlightenment is the fruit that sets you free, as you lose all wants and wishes to receive the fruits of your actions. You feel the bliss of completeness through spiritual enlightenment. At first it gives you the feeling that you need “Light”. At the next stage, you feel that you are merging in “Light”. At the culminating stage, you feel that you are no more separated from “Light”—you and “Light” are one.

 

How Meditation Can Lead You To Spiritual Enlightenment

Have you ever found yourself struggling in meditation? You sit to meditate expecting bliss or enlightenment but instead all you really experience is frustration?  That’s because the very attempt to get something out of meditation, blocks you from actually meditating.
Meditation is a bit like gardening,  you plant some carrot seeds and then every day you water it, you pull the weeds, you nourish the carrot plant in every way you can. You don’t expect a carrot instantly. But out of love for gardening you do the work without expecting anything in return. And then one day to your surprise,there is the carrot, beautiful, orange and delicious.  Same with meditation.

If you commit yourself to meditation without expecting anything in return; If you give yourself to this moment out of the love of giving. Because some days meditation will be challenging, some days meditation will be blissful and some days meditation will be a challenging surrender to the intensity that is here.

But simply by meditating and by nourishing your awareness in every way you can,one day, without even focusing on it, you could be reading a book or walking in the woods and suddenly there is an opening. Suddenly, bliss is radiating freely from your heart.

Enlightenment will happen without you thinking about it. Without you do anything on your part.

It arises on its own, at its own time, yet it arises also because you planted the seed and helped it grow.

And the best way to help your meditation grow into enlightenment is by sitting in the presence of an enlightened teacher, one who has mastered high states of meditation. Such a teacher naturally radiates a bliss(known as shaktipat) that can be felt by others. And so simply by sitting with them, you easily enter deep states of meditation.

But you can experience this same bliss by listening to a very unique Enlightenment CD.  Simply by listening to beautiful meditation music, you effortlessly attain deep states of meditation and bliss.

Creating Your Own Private Meditation Room
Meditation rooms are not separate rooms all the time most of the time they are just secluded nooks,  in someones home where one can be in total isolation to be able to think, relax and meditate. Having a private meditation room, however, is not something that has to be exclusive to yoga practitioners. You too can have your very own meditation room which you can use as a place just to sit back and get away from the fast-paced and stressful daily life that most of us live. Your meditation room can be your own hideaway, where you can breathe freely and gather your thoughts together.

When choosing your meditation room quietness and isolation are the primary qualities that a meditation room must have,  No matter how small your home is it is possible to have a meditation room where you can have a bit of peaceful respite. If possible,  just find a place to set it up that is a little out of the way in your home.

You could use your bedroom if you like as long as there are o distractions,  or noise that would hinder your meditation or peacefulness! Any corner that can be made secluded can do, in fact. All you need to do, if your meditation room is not a separate room in itself, is to partition it creatively so you would not be bothered if you are inside your nook. For it is a zen feeling you are trying to achieve, and all you should worry about.

A meditation room does not require much in terms of furnishings, and as long as you are comfortable that’s all that should matter to you. The most essential piece of furniture  is a comfortable chair that is wide enough for you to curl your legs in,  and even at that, a chair is not that necessary. If space is a problem, a cushion can serve in its stead.

A CD player, however, may be necessary. It helps a lot to meditate while listening to soft, instrumental music, or perhaps to recorded natural sounds like the singing of the birds or the sound of the waves or the sound of the falling rain. Music is very helpful in getting you relaxed and in the right mind-frame.

How your meditation room is lighted may affect how well you focus and concentrate in clearing your mind here. The lighting you ought to install in your meditation room is something soft and subtle. Stay away from the harshly glowing fluorescent bulbs when you light your meditation room.

You do not have to decorate the walls. If you can paint the walls a neutral color, it would be best to do so. You do not need anything that can distract you from your meditation inside your meditation room. To set and enhance the mood, however, you can put shelves where you can place some scented candles or a vase of flowers or perhaps a figurine or two. A potted plant can help set the mood, too. These are all the decoration you would need for your meditation room.Your meditation room is ideally the one place in your house, if not in the whole world, where you can get away to relax and to clear your mind of anything that is bothering you. The one thing that will defeat this purpose is if you leave clutter in your meditation room.

No matter how busy you may be with your daily life, always find the time to keep your meditation room clean and free from clutter. Cleaning your meditation room may be seen as a form of meditation in itself. After all, the reason you have a meditation room is to keep your mind clear and unburned by chaos. To achieve that, you have to keep your meditation room clean and unburned by chaos as well.

Meditation Chairs & The Benefits Of Having One
Now, with meditation chairs, you can easily enhance the experience of exploration. This unique chair gives you an opportunity to sit in a relaxed and comfortable position when you are engaged in a relaxation session, being totally comfortable is very important so really think about whats important to you and your quiet space.

A meditation chair will help you a lot in enhancing your knowledge related to meditation and also meditating in the right form. People with problems inflexibility or restricted flexibility, this chair provide a comfortable alternative to sitting on the floor.People who have just begun with their meditation practice will definitely find this chair, a great way of increasing concentration level.

You can easily get different types of meditation chairs available on the market, you would find an amazing variety of meditation benches, inflatable cushions and even ergonomically designed to fit chairs.With a meditation chair, you can easily sit straight and that too without putting too much pressure on your back. A meditation chair lets you provide adequate support to the back and also helps you to remain in the best possible upright position.

Most companies have started providing quality meditation supplies. They are also manufacturing inflatable cushions, portable meditation chairs and folding benches. Now, with so much of variety, you can easily focus on meditation in any environment.
You must consider investing in a good portable meditation chair,  this will help you in meditating even while you travel.

Meditation will be possible only when the mind and body is in harmony, when you face any sort of physical discomfort, you will not experience the best of meditation. Your mind will instead turn to the discomfort you are feeling. You need to be as comfortable as possible in order to expand,  your consciousness and obtain good clarity of mind. You also require to sit at a single position for a longer period of time,  this usually causes a lot of distress and cramping in the body.

Meditation chairs are specially designed for adequate support and alignment one requires in order to obtain the maximum out of your meditation experience. Remember that an ordinary chair will never work towards providing you the same ease as a meditation chair.

If you are about to purchase a meditation chair for yourself, there are certain things you need to take in to consideration. You need to focus on buying a meditation chair that has a slight forward angle,  this will prevent you from slumping while you meditate. Also take care that the chair is not too steeply angled,  too much of a steep angle will result in over-arching. A good meditation chair will not angle more than just a few inches. The best option for you would be to purchase a meditation chair that you can easily adjust as per your body weight, height and comfort level. Take advice from an experienced person in this field, if at all possible as this will make your purchase a good one.

If you are keen on practicing Zen meditation, then nothing would be better for you than a proper meditation chair. You can find the best meditation chairs online or a spiritual store, and with a little detailed research on your part. Try a few out and you will know which is just right for you!

Healing Meditation – How To Do Healing Meditation?

healing meditation is used to heal you or to heal others. When you are just starting out, it is best to focus on your own healing first. What we’re going to see here is the self healing.

You can help your body to recover from an illness or disease by doing healing meditation.

How to do healing meditation?

Start your meditation process as usual.

Then, once you are happy that you are in a relaxed state, you can start your healing meditation.

In your mind, fill the area that needs healing with a bright healing light. Once you get proficient at this technique, you can research the different colors that are said to help even more with the healing process. But as a starter, use a bright white light for your healing process.

Flood the area that needs healing with the bright white light. See everything brilliantly illuminated. Then visualize the affected area starting to heal and return to its regular, i.e., 100% healthy state.

Some people find it helpful to visualize their white blood cells attacking the harmful elements in the affected area.

Some other people find that they can build their own construction team in their visualization. This team of miniature experts goes about the process of reconstructing the affected area and putting it back to normal.

The power of this visualization is fantastic. Let your mind run riot while you perform your healing meditation.

See the area that needs healing transform into a completely healed part of you. If you find it difficult to “see” the area, then just imagine what it would feel like if that part of your body was completely healed and working perfectly. It doesn’t matter if you don’t get all the details completely right. Just get a sense of what will happen. Your mind is powerful enough to fill in the gaps – all you are doing is telling it the direction that you would like it to take.

You can lead a healthy life using this healing meditation.

Meditations: A Simple Healing Meditation Practice

The role of meditation in essence is to assist you in maintaining your mind and body. The power of our mind is often overlooked in Western Society where as in other parts of the world like Asia, they recognize the power of the mind to assist in healing your body. This meditation is one that you can use to simply help heal you body. I should note that it is not a substitute for other medical assistance, but should be used in conjunction with traditional medicine.

The first part of this meditation is to get you into the meditation position. For this meditation either the seated meditation position or sitting on a chair will be appropriate. I also recommend for this meditation that you use Baroque Style Meditation music played at 60 beats per minute as we want your brain to be in its optimum mode to help with the healing process.

Whilst you are seated make sure that your back is straight, shoulders straight and your head should be upright. This will ensure that you can breathe clearly through your nose. Begin the healing meditation with simple breathing meditation that is light breathing out through your nose. As you are doing this clear your mind of yours thoughts. Once you have got to the required state of relaxation it is now time to begin the Healing Meditation.

In your minds eye, open your mind to you being seated by a beautiful flowing stream with the most brilliant colors of green around you. You should feel the sun touching your face so gently. As your mind is opening your imagination you should feel the stress and pain in your body slowly sink away into the ground. As that tension and stress flows into the ground, you should feel renewed energy fill the void of that tension.

Now the healing can begin. As the tension and stress slips away and the new energy comes into your body, focus that energy on parts of your body that have been in pain or hurting. Feel the energy encapsulate those points of pain and the healing to begin. To help you further with the healing process, now put your feet into the stream. Feel the rushing water pass by and the tension flow away.

Continue this meditation till you feel refreshed and vibrant. When you come out of the meditation session spend a sitting on the flow or in the meditation position you chose and simply feel the renewed energy in your body. This is worth doing at least once a week to help you renew the energy in your body.

7 Health Ailments Eased By Healing Meditation

Do you suffer from skin conditions such as psoriasis? Are you battling blood pressure and heart disease? Do have trouble controlling your anxiety? If you suffer any of these conditions then you should add healing meditation to your arsenal of health and wellness tools. However, these health ailments are not the alone ailments that benefit from healing meditation. There are numerous health conditions that can be alleviated through the use of healing meditation.

Following is a listing of common health ailments that can be alleviated through healing meditation:

1. Psoriasis: Psoriasis is a skin disease that produces scaly red patches on the skin. It can be painful and embarrassing. Sufferers can also have painful flare-ups. Healing meditation can help to reduce the frequency and intensity of these flare-ups and clear up their skin patches.

2. Heart Disease and High Blood Pressure: According to the American Heart Association, Heart Disease is still the #1 cause of death for both women and men. Heart Disease is the result of a variety of factors including genetic predisposition, diet, and weight level. Combined with a proper diet, daily exercise, and heart disease drugs, healing meditation can help alleviate the effects of heart disease and reduce blood pressure.

3. Anxiety: At one time or another we all experience anxiety. Some people experience extreme anxiety on a daily basis which can even attack their immune system. Anxiety can also increase blood pressure. Blood pressure is known as the silent killer so it is critical to minimize the amount of anxiety you experience. Healing meditation can alleviate stress in your mind, soul, and body.

4. Arthritis and Fibromyalgia: Arthritis and Fibromyalgia sufferers deal with pain on a daily basis. Sometimes this pain can be crippling. Healing meditation can decrease the stress on muscles and joints. This reduces the pain sensations that these sufferers experience. Healing meditation can also help reduce inflammation thus reducing pain.

5. Premenstrual Syndrome: PMS can stop an otherwise healthy person dead in their tracks. Devastating headaches and painful menstrual cramps can be reduced through healing meditation. The meditation helps minimize stress and relaxes muscles which can be a most welcome effect for many PMS sufferers.

6. Asthma, Emphysema, and other Respiratory Ailments: If you are ill with these ailments then you know that breathing can be a chore. Your lungs can close up on you causing you to cough, gag, and have trouble breathing. Healing meditation is focused on breathing. You learn to breathe deeply and slowly. You open your lungs so that they can use their full capacity more effectively.

7. General Health: Healing meditation is a whole body experience. Every ounce of your body and mind benefits from meditation. This yields a positive attitude which further enhances your well being. Practicing meditation is a win-win experience for anyone. You can enjoy the benefits of meditation regardless of your age, gender, or skill level.

So stop and set aside time each day to meditate. You can ease any health ailments that you have to deal with every day. Healing meditation will lift your spirits as well which is key if you want to conquer your health condition.

Archangels and Chakras

Archangels and Chakras

This is part 2 of listing Archangels adding Chakra information and video as well as some Angel and Chakra cards!

 

Ariel

Ariel means “lion of God” and is often associated with lions. When Ariel is near you, you may begin seeing references to or visions of lions around you. Ariel is also associated with the wind. Found in books of Judaic mysticism and Cabalistic, Ariel works closely with King Solomon in conducting manifestation, spirit releasement and Divine magic.

Ariel also oversees the sprites, the nature Angels associated with water. Ariel is involved with healing and protecting nature, including animals, fish and birds. If you find an injured bird or other wild animal that needs healing, call upon Ariel for help. Ariel also works closely with Raphael to heal animals in need.

Although he is described as a member of the Angelic hierarchy, he is also at times placed among the evil Angels as one of the fallen Angels who are routed by the stern and obedient seraph Abdiel during the war in heaven.

Azrael

The much feared Angel of death in both Islamic and Hebrew lore, Azrael’s name means “whom God helps.” Azrael’s primary role is to help people cross over to Heaven at the time of physical death. He comforts people prior to their physical passing, makes sure they don’t suffer during death and helps them assimilate on the other side. Working as a grief counselor, he surrounds grieving family members with healing energy and helps them cope and thrive, and absorbs their pain.

Azrael has eyes and tongues exactly equal to the number of people inhabiting the world. Each time he blinks one of his eyes, it signifies that another person has died. Azrael also keeps track of the dying by recording the births of the living and erasing the names of those who have died.

Camael

Camael, his name meaning “he who sees God”, he is listed as one of the seven truly powerful Angels who have the great honor of standing in the very presence of God. Originally the God of War in Druid mythology, he is frequently referred to as the ruler of the planet Mars, as well as one of the governing Angels of the seven planets.

In Cabalistic lore he is considered one of the ten Archangels. According to Jewish custom, Camael serves as the mediator, taking prayers of Israel before the Angelic princes residing in the seventh heaven.

Haniel

Haniel’s name means “the grace of God” and is generally credited with the title of prince or chief of the Angelic orders or choirs of the principalities and virtues. For this reason, Haniel is listed in some lists as one of the seven Archangels. Some Cabalistic texts credit Haniel as escorting Enoch to the spirit world where he was transformed into the Angel Metatron, being on of the only two humans to ever become Angels (his brother Elijah being the other).

Haniel helps us to uncover the lost secrets of natural healing remedies such as potions, powders and crystals. He will help you with whenever you need to speak in public and helps you to remain poised and centered. You can also call on Haniel to help bring beauty, harmony and loving friends into your life.

Jeremiel

In ancient Judaic texts, Jeremiel is listed as one of the seven core Archangels, his name meaning (“mercy of God” or “whom God sets up”). He is credited with helping Baruch, a prolific author of apocryphal Judaic texts in the first century A.D., with his prophetic visions. It is also said that he took Baruch on a tour of the different levels of Heaven. The coming of the Messiah was one of Jeremiel’s visions.

Jeremiel is that Archangel who review’s our lives with us after we’ve crossed over. He is also able to do this for us while we’re still living, helping us to review our life up till now so we can correct the wrongs we’ve done by making positive adjustments. Through this, he’s able to help us make life changes, making us stronger and lead us to the right path.

Jeremiel also helps us with clairvoyance and prophetic visions, and helps us to interpret psychic dreams.

Metatron

One of the only two Archangels whose name does not end in “el” and one of the only two Archangels who were humans before becoming Angels (his brother Elijah/Sandalphon being the other). His human name was Enoch. The meaning of Metatron is unclear, but some believe it means “he who occupies the throne next to the Divine throne”, “the Angel of the Presence” or that his name is a derivation of the name Yahweh, the Jewish term for the unspoken sacred name of God.

One of the most important Angels in the Western tradition, he represents the supreme Angel of death, to whom God daily gives orders as to which souls will be taken that day. Metatron transmits these orders to his subordinates Gabriel and Sammael.

On earth Enoch was a prophet and scribe. He was also a scholar on heavenly secrets, having received “The Book of the Angel Raziel”, a textbook about God’s workings penned by Archangel Raziel and given to Adam, Noah, Enoch and Solomon. As a result, God escorted Enoch directly to the seventh Heaven – the highest level – to reside and work. Enoch was given wings and transformed into a great Archangel named Metatron.

Since Metatron excelled at his work on earth, he was given a similar job in Heaven to scribe the records of everything that happens on earth and keep the Akashic records, which is the “Book of Life”. He is the chief recorder in Heaven and in charge of recording and organizing all the records. He helps us understand Heaven’s perspective and to learn how to work with the Angelic realm.

He has a special place in his heart for children, especially those who are spiritually gifted. After the Exodus, Metatron led the children of Israel through the wilderness and into safety. He continues to lead children today, both on Earth and in Heaven and helps them to adjust to Heaven after crossing over.

Raziel

Raziel works very closely with the Creator and its believed he knows all of the secrets of the Universe and how it operates. He wrote down all of these secrets in a tome of symbols and Divine magic called “The Book of the Angel Raziel”. After Adam and Eve were expelled from Eden, Raziel gave Adam the book for guidance about manifestation and God’s grace. Later the prophet Enoch received the book prior to his ascension and transformation into Archangel Metatron. Noah was also given a copy of the book by Archangel Raphael and Noah used the information to build his ark and help its inhabitants after the flood.

Raziel can help you understand esoteric material, manifestation principles, sacred geometry, quantum physics and other high-level information. He can also open you up to higher levels of psychic abilities and increase your ability to see, hear, know and feel Divine guidance. Like a Divine wizard, Raziel can also assist you with alchemy, clairvoyance, and divine magic.

Sandalphon

Only one of the two Archangels whose name doesn’t end with an “el”, Sandalphon is the twin brother of Archangel Metatron. The twins are the only Archangels in Heaven who were originally mortal men. Sandalphon was the prophet Elijah and Metatron was the wise man Enoch. God gave both men their immortal assignments as Archangels to reward them for their good work upon Earth, allowing them to continue their sacred service from Heaven.

Elijah’s ascension occurred when he was lifted up to Heaven in a fiery chariot pulled by two horses of fire, accompanied by a whirlwind, an even recorded in the second chapter of the Book of 2 Kings.

Sandalphon’s chief role is to carry human prayers to God so they may be answered. He’s said to be so tall that he extends from Earth to Heaven. Ancient Cabalistic lore says that Sandalphon can help expectant parents determine the gender of their forthcoming child and many also believe that he’s involved with music as well.

Archangels

According to renowned author Doreen Virtue, Archangels are messengers from our creator who guide and oversee the realm of the guardian angels and also our human physical realm. The Archangels have the powerful ability to help each of us simultaneously while offering their protection and guidance to bring about peace on earth.

Anyone can call on an Archangel for assistance. Doreen says in the Archangel Oracle Cards that “Just thinking an Archangel ‘s name is enough to call one to your side”. She recommends developing your relationship with them to receive healings, guidance and miracles in your life. This relationship can be aided by working with the gemstone represented by each of the 15 Archangels. Reviewing the chart below will help you determine which Archangel to choose depending on their area of “specialty” and also which gemstone or crystal to begin working with to deepen your connection to these ethereal messengers.

How do the archangels correspond to the chakras? The chakras are our inner lights and energy centers that can be lit up through the practice of meditation. They are often pictured in eastern religions as spinning wheels. The faster they spin the more you will be on the same astral plane as the archangels. The concept behind this is that angels can be contacted through meditation and through the connections of each of the bodily chakras. These are energy centers when “spun” in circles make a vibrational call to heavenly beings above. They respond in kind by healing us or granting our requests. Sometimes we also get messages from these angels in the areas of the chakras. This is particularly true of the crown, heart, and solar plexus chakras where we will routinely get intuitive hits. Here is a list of the Archangels and the chakras that are their correspondences astrally.

 

The word Chakra, is Sanskrit, originating from an ancient language, meaning wheel or vortex. The word Chakra refers to all energy centers or energy vortexes throughout your Auric energy field, all energy bodies, and your physical body.

Chakras or energy centers regulate the flow of energy through your entire being. Each Chakra flows one into the other blending with the energies of Chakras both above and below. The Heart Chakra, for example, flows upward to your Throat Chakra allowing you to speak with emotion. Energy from the Heart Chakra also flows downward, blending with your Solar Plexus Chakra, allowing you to manifest with emotion, compassion, and focused intention.
Chakras can become under or over stimulated, displaying a variety of physical, mental, or emotional manifestations.

Chakras interact with our physical and etheric or Auric energy bodies. Each Chakra has physical and Metaphysical or Spiritual associations. There are eleven major Chakras, twenty-one minor and many lesser Chakras.

Chakras are vertically aligned running from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. We ascend toward the Divine by gradually mastering the physical world. The Solar Plexus (located in the stomach area) is the energy center most linked with creativity and emotions. It is thought to be where heaven and earth meet.

Visualize each Chakra or energy vortex as a spinning wheel or fan, spinning clockwise. Start with your Crown Chakra, moving downward to your Root Chakra. OR if you prefer, start with your Root Chakra, working upwards to your Crown Chakra. Using your inner-sight, explore each Chakra for any areas of darkness; see each Chakra glow in harmony and in perfect balance. Another way to cleanse and balance your Chakras is to ask thee Angels to assist you.

The ARCHANGEL CHAMUEL is the love angel and corresponds to the color red. This is the color of your base or first chakra that has to do with grounding yourself and survival. Visualizing very red items, such as rubies, pomegranate juice, or roses can help you use chakra energy to connect to this angel of unconditional love. Red also corresponds to money in this case, particularly the circulation of it through our lives.

ARCHANGEL ZADKIEL corresponds to the color violet and orange. The second and the crown chakras correspond to this angel, which is sometimes called the Angel of Joy. Meditating on these chakras and in particular the second chakra is all about sexual and social gratification. It is also about freedom of the both the soul and the body.

The ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL corresponds to the solar plexus, or third chakra. Visualizing objects that are yellow such as sunshine, lemons, or buttercups can help you connect your chakra energy to the enlightening energies of this angel.

The ARCHANGEL MICHAEL corresponds to the throat chakra. To contact this angel, activate your throat (fifth chakra) through meditating on objects that are blue in color, such as a blue sky or a blue gem like a sapphire.

The ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL corresponds to the chakra color green. The fourth chakra is the “heart chakra” that guides us through life and helps us open up our hearts so that we are more receptive to love. Picturing brilliant green objects such as limes, leaves, or emeralds can help us connect to the energies of that angel.

The ARCHANGEL URIEL corresponds to the colors purple and gold, which in terms of the chakras correlate to the third eye. The third eye chakra is about foresight, intuition, and connecting with the higher self.The key here is to imagine each chakra center glowing in its appropriate color. The chakras produce rays of light that appeal to the archangels and that is how their blessings are brought down upon us.

Eastern religions teach that the human body contains seven major energy centers. Each of these energy centers contain a universal spiritual life lesson that we must learn as we evolve into higher consciousness. According to energy medicine, our bodies contain our histories¬¬—every chapter, line, and verse of every event and relationship in our lives. As our lives unfold, our biological health becomes a living, breathing biographical statement that conveys our strengths, weaknesses, hopes and fears. Many of these factors affect our energies.

Illnesses or dis-ease may develop as a consequence of behavioral patterns and attitudes that we do not realize are biologically toxic. We all have negative feelings, but not all negativity produces dis-ease. Dominant, negative emotions create dis-ease when we acknowledge negativity to be toxic, allowing the negative emotions to thrive in our consciousness. For instance, you may know you need to forgive someone, yet you decide that remaining angry gives you more power. Remaining obsessively angry makes you more likely to develop dis-ease because the energy consequence of a negative obsession is being powerless. Energy is power. It is possible to transmit energy into the past by dwelling on painful events, draining power from your present-day body and can lead to dis-ease.

Humankind hungers for spirituality. Spirituality is far more than a psychological or an emotional need. Spirituality is an inherent biological need. Our Spirits, our energy, and our personal power are intertwined with spiritually guided life-force energy. Your Chakras or energy centers are part of your internal physical and spiritual guidance system and, are part of a universal, external guidance system for your spiritual behavior and for the creation of your health. Your spiritual task in this life-time is to become aware of, and learn to balance the energies of the body and soul, of thought and action, as well as your physical body and mental power.

 

 

A video for meditation along with images of the Archangels, and the corresponding chakras. The music is the second track on the Band of Brothers Soundtrack, composed by Michael Kamen. The music was requested as the meditation music by Archangel Uriel for one of his dictations. This is the first video I’ve made. I did it because I want everyone to feel the comaradery and brotherhood that the angels have with us, and perhaps more people will use them.

The ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE!!

Many people mistakenly believe that meditation is a passive activity in which a person simply empties their mind of all thoughts, and sits doing nothing but mindless breathing exercises. While this may be how some people practice meditation, it is not meditation in the true sense. Meditation is never a passive activity. Of course, in order to enter a true meditative state, you must quiet your conscious or objective mind, but this is done for a distinct purpose. And, there are techniques which actively quiet the objective mind. These are not used to put a person into a mindless state, however, they are done to help the practitioner contact their higher mind. This is often referred to as entering the silence. However, it is what one does when they enter the silence that determines whether one is meditating, or simply entering a mindless, hypnotic trance.

True meditation happens when we enter the silence and then attempt conscious awareness, without reengaging the objective mind. This is difficult to do. However, there are techniques that even a beginner can use to increase their awareness when they enter the silence, without waking up the objective mind. One good technique is to use a mantra or prayer that is short enough to remember, so that it can be repeated slowly in your mind. For example, if you are a Christian, you could repeat the phrase “no longer I, but Christ who lives within me.” As you repeat the phrase, say each word slowly, trying as best as you can to feel the meaning and significance of each word. Link your mind, or thoughts, to your heart, or emotions. Then, try to visualize what each word means, again linking a feeling to the picture you create in your mind. Don’t worry if you struggle with visualization; many people, (myself included), struggle with it. Do not let that be a barrier, continue practicing visualizing, and linking your thoughts with your feelings.

After you complete your meditation, journal the experience, and reflect on it critically, but without judgment. Ask yourself questions, and see if any insights emerge. Whatever you discover, write them down.

 

 

gratitude

 

 

And lastly, be normal. Do not imagine you are special because you are practicing meditation. You are special because you are a child of God, but then again we all are, so that is nothing to boast about. Always approach meditation with a sense of humility, love, gratitude, and praise. If you do this, you will truly meditate and your life will be abundantly blessed.

As you can see, meditation is an active practice, designed to quiet the objective mind, and bring you into contact with the Divine Mind, The Power of the Spirit.

Yes, it might feel great to win the lottery. Money, houses, travel – these are wonderful, but not enough by themselves. You need the right frame of mind to fully enjoy life. You need the attitude of gratitude.

Be Grateful

Life is better when you feel blessed, when you can look around and say “Thank you, God.” Religious or not, when you see life as a wonderful gift, your experience is a richer one than any amount of money can provide. Imagine going through life like you’re a child, and every morning is Christmas.

It’s tempting to think gratitude comes from having what you want. You see yourself giving thanks if you had money, a loving family, and maybe a house on the beach. Still, you know there are ungrateful, unhappy people with these things, and poor people full of gratitude for what little they have. Where does this feeling come from?

Creating Gratitude

Gratitude arises from how you look at things. It is the natural feeling that comes from truly appreciating the people and things in your life. It is also something you can learn.

First, you have to stop and smell the roses. You can’t be thankful for something you don’t notice or enjoy. Roses really do smell great, by the way.

Then, you need to make this appreciative approach to roses and life a habit. There’s no need to ignore the ugliness in the world, but you have to habitually see the beautiful things.

Start writing down every positive thing that happens to you, and all the things you like. Do this until you start automatically seeing the good things in life. If you’ve ever bought a white car, and started seeing white cars all over, you know how awareness can alter your perception of reality. To see wonderful things all over, train yourself to look for them.

When you are in the habit of “counting your blessings,” gratitude, and a much richer experience of life is the natural result.

In its simplest form Prayer is speaking with God/Spirit/Universe and Meditation is listening to God/Spirit/Universe. The Universe works on the principle that you ASK and it is GIVEN. So prayer is a time for asking, whether for yourself or for others. It is also a time for praise & thanksgiving, which is also called appreciation & gratitude. Here you are giving thanks and/or marveling at the wonder of your fabulous life. It is energy directed out of you. You can speak your prayers aloud or silently in your mind. It doesn’t matter to the God/Spirit/Universe.

Meditation is the listening part. You see, G/S/U speaks to us through intuition. We need to have good inner listening, which gets clearer when you meditate. Now, listening is a relatively passive activity and is not embraced nor encouraged by your ego/conscious mind. So the goal is to quiet your mind and get it to go away. You want to empty your mind of thoughts. This is energy directed in you. When your mind is empty, that is when God/Spirit/Universe can speak to you.

So that’s the bare bones of the two. Both expand as your practice them. But here are some suggestions for success in each:

Prayer: Keep a prayer journal. This helps you to see what has come to pass that you have prayed for. If you wrote a list of the 5 favorite things in your life right now, you’d realize they were all prayers of yours, not so long ago. Therefore you know prayers are answered. So will be the ones you are praying now.

Meditation: Set yourself up for success by turning off the TV and the phone first.Find a very comfortable spot and set an alarm that beeps to let you know you are finished.

Exercising and maintaining an attitude of gratitude is one of the most powerful ways to incorporate the Law of Attraction into your life. As we know, the Law of Attraction is a universal law. It can be described in the phrase “like attracts like.” Because of the Law of Attraction, you will attract similar thoughts to the ones that you are thinking. Whether those thoughts are negative or positive, they will attract the same types of thoughts.

The attitude of gratitude seems like such a simple phrase, but the powers that are represented by that simple phrase can bring a multitude of things to the person who knows how to use those powers along with the Law of Attraction. Many times a person will try to use this law to benefit their life. Perhaps they are searching for meaning, or maybe they want to improve their finances. Let’s say this person starts to repeat affirmations aloud every day, twice a day. This person also tries meditation and they might even make a list of goals. But for some reason, this person doesn’t feel as if their efforts are working.

This is where the attitude of gratitude comes in. Sometimes, for different reasons, no matter how much a person tries to do the right things; they still have a negative mindset, even if they repeat positive phrases over and over. No amount of repetition is going to work if you have a negative mindset while doing the repetitions. This is exactly when the attitude of gratitude is needed most. Having an attitude of gratitude puts your mind on a more positive track. The attitude of gratitude gets you into the mindset and frequency that you need in order to receive the things that you are trying to get by using affirmations and meditation.

Even if a person makes a list of goals that they want to accomplish, if they are stuck in a negative mindset, the goals will not end up in them receiving what they want. By implementing an attitude of gratitude, they can break the cycle of negativity and start to operate on a positive vibration that will allow them to turn their desires into a reality.

Examples of ways to incorporate an attitude of gratitude within yourself include expressing gratitude for everything that you have. When you wake up in the morning, express your gratitude. Say thank you out loud for your bed, for your room for the food that you eat, and for the water that comes out of your tap.

Express gratitude for everything that you have, and while you do so, feel the happy and warm feelings that come with having gratitude. This is the way to get on the right track in order for your subconscious mind to be able to receive the things that you have been wanting and trying to receive through other techniques. Utilizing an attitude of gratitude in your daily life is the best way to make sure that you are on the right wavelength to receive everything that the universe sends to you.

Relaxation Tools

This writer currently believes that meditation is the best practice and tool for relaxation but we have had many requests for relaxation therapy tools. I also found this interesting article….as with anything please do YOUR research to see if any of these products are going to benefit you personally!!

 

By:Troy Centazzo

I thought at the time meditation would never work for me. It just sounded so intriguing, though. This exercise has been practiced for over 5,000 years and every religion incorporates some version of it, so there must be something to it, I thought. One version involved simply getting comfortable, closing one’s eyes, and repeating a simple word over and over, apparently offering practitioners the joys of complete relaxation and a sense of calm. Those monks in Tibet looked pretty relaxed and the Dalai Lama always seemed to be smiling, despite living in exile for almost 40 years at that time.

I had never felt calm in my life. Always an anxious kid who couldn’t sit still in class and felt claustrophobic if I sat down for more than five minutes, the allure of a sense of calm had intrigued me since high school. In my mid-twenties, I knew anxiety and stress had already begun to take its toll over the years. Migraines. Back pain. Hives. Ulcers at 19 years old. Acid reflux. Asthma attacks. Chewing the blanket on my bed during sleep until it was shredded (no, I’m not kidding). But meditation just wouldn’t cut it. Not that I didn’t try over and over again. My mind just wouldn’t let me sit still for more than a , never mind keep intruding thoughts out of my head. I had read that reducing stress was important to health, however, so I kept looking for an answer.

Then came the Internet seeping into the relative mainstream in the early to mid-90′s. Web browsers like Netscape allowed casual users to search for topics and “surf” around and look at web pages. Back then, the Net seemed to be mostly about email, porn sites, early users of AOL, first generation attempts at corporate advertising, and a lot of, let’s say, “niche” communities, often selling their wares on rudimentary websites. One of those communities was the New Age crowd. The New Age Movement, an early embracer of the Internet, is “a social collective phenomenon and a spiritual nature movement that seeks universal truth through the Oneness of Humanity. It combines aspects of spirituality, cosmology, esotericism, complementary and alternative medicine, various religious practices, and environmentalism.” (1) They seemed to discuss energy, collective consciousness, and inter-connectedness on their websites a lot, I noticed.

While I was surfing around the Internet looking for a solution to my relaxation dilemma, I came across something called a light-sound machine The product’s website, which clearly had New Age written all over it (celestial pictures of stars and planets, people wearing space-age glasses, and products with flashing lights and lots of buttons) advertised a product that promised to leapfrog the years of practice demanded by meditation and quickly place the user into a completely relaxed – or “altered” – state, wherein someone actually feels like they are floating outside of their own body. The website talked about the concepts of brainwave entrainment, audio-visual stimulation (AVS), Ganzfield, soundscapes, and binaural beats.

Weird, right?

I couldn’t resist. Within a few minutes I made my first Internet purchase in 1996: a relaxation light-sound machine.

Of course I couldn’t wait more than ten minutes to use it when it arrived. The box included a metal unit that looked like a cassette player from the 1970′s, headphones and eye shades with LED lights on the inside of them. I read the brief instructions, set my desired program on the unit (a “theta-alpha relaxed state” program for 30 minutes, whatever that meant), put the headphones and eyeglasses on, and pushed the start button. I could hear a faint beat in the headphones and, with closed eyes, saw flashing lights through my eye lids. I tried to breathe deeply from my abdomen (per the instructions) and counted 1-2-3-4, and so on. Within about 15 minutes I was more relaxed than I had ever been in my life. I couldn’t really tell if I was awake or asleep and dreaming.

Too good to be true?

Let’s Back Up: How We Can Measure Activity in Our Brains – Without All (Ok, Most of) the Science Speak

Most adults who have undergone typical physical exams at the doctor’s office are familiar with an EKG (or ECG) test. An EKG test, during which the doctor places several electrodes on our bodies, measures the electrical activity of the heart, can detect abnormal rhythms of or damage to the heart muscle. Accepting that measuring electrical activity of the heart can measure conditions of the heart is mainstream healthcare; the EKG test is central to cardiology.

Our brains produce electrical activity that can be measured as well, though most people have not undergone the test to measure brain activity, known as an EEG (with the exception of epileptic, seizure or brain injury patients). Like an EKG, electrodes are used, placed on the scalp with a conductive substance (like a gel) to measure electrical activity resulting from currents reflecting activity in our brains (I have not included a discussion here about the standard locations to measure various activity levels).

This activity can be shown graphically as waves at a certain “speed,” known as frequency.(2) As you might guess, the less activity in our brains (such as when we’re drowsy), the slower the waves generated; the more activity, (such as when we’re anxious), the faster the waves. Our brains are working with more intensity, creating more electrical activity, and we can measure that with an EEG. The EEG test, in fact, was first used on humans back in 1920. The list below demonstrates the perceived emotional state that is related to a particular frequency and the name of associated wave pattern.

Brain Activity States That Can be Shown as Waves on a Computer Screen Measured by an EEG

Wave Type—-Frequency (Hz)—–Emotional State

Delta—–up to 3—–Slow wave sleep, babies’ normal state

Theta—–4 – 7——Dreams, mental imagery, deep meditative states, deep relaxation

Alpha——8 – 12—–Relaxed awareness, meditative states (while awake)

Beta—-12 – 30—–Active or busy thinking, anxiety, tense

Gamma—-Above 30——Hyper-alert, higher mental activity

Here’s Where it Gets Even More Interesting.

We can actually move the activity of our brains – and therefore change our emotional states – towards a certain frequency (say, a lower, more relaxed one) to match that of an outside stimulus, such as a repetitive sound or a visual cue like a flashing light at a certain frequency (again, similar to speed for purposes of this article).

There is one related auditory phenomenon with which all of us are familiar: music. Daniel J. Levitan in his recent fascinating book, “This is Your Brain on Music,” discusses how music and its numerous technical components – whether the compositions are by the Beatles, Mozart, Metallica, Aretha Franklin or Stevie Wonder, among many others – significantly impact the complex regions of our brain. (3) We all can relate to hearing a certain song from our past and – suddenly – certain emotions come up. If one enjoys rock music, a listener can feel “pumped up” and energized by the music’s loud, hard charging beats. As music and healing expert Steven Halpern explained to me, humans have been using sounds and beats for 25,000 years to alter states of consciousness.

Some Relaxation Tools Enable Us to Actual Target a Certain State of Emotion

Through several audio and visual tools, we can actually coax our brains into a certain emotional state, such as relaxation. As discussed, we accomplish this by using repetitive sounds and visual stimuli that are set at a certain frequency, such as at a “theta” speed. The first way to simply accomplish this is through a concept known as “binaural beats,” a complicated auditory phenomenon that takes place in our brains. Binaural beats occur when someone wears headphones and tones at slightly different frequencies are played in each ear. Our brains, however, will mix the two different beats into one. If the binaural beat is set to a certain frequency, our brainwaves will synchronize with those sounds (the technical term is “brainwave entrainment,” a term that initially made me think of science fiction and Stanley Kubrick’s haunting movie, “A Clockwork Orange”). However, binaural beat recordings, which can include sounds of nature over them, have been shown to bring about states of relaxation. (4) Using this type of product is as easy as buying a CD and listening to it with headphones.

By adding strobe lights to binaural beats, we create the light-sound machine that I initially mentioned was my entrée into the world of relaxation tools. This represents the second of the relaxation tools I review in this article. These products, sometimes called “mind machines,” use audio-visual stimulation (AVS) to bring about various states, such as relaxation, attention and sleep. They include goggles which the user wears with his or her eyes closed; the effect is the same through the eyelids and would actully be extremely uncomfortable if one’s eyes were kept open. AVS devices allow the user to select various programs focused on states of emotion or mood. Research has been conducted on light-sound machines and their positive impact on children with learning disabilities, impulsive behaviors, and anxiety. (5) It should be noted that flashing lights may not be appropriate for everyone. In fact, people with photosensitive epilepsy and other nervous disorders may experience seizures when using such as device (one source notes that one in 10,000 people using such a device may experience a seizure using the device.)

A third tool to bring about a state of relaxation is not much different than the sound-based tools discussed above, but I would like to profile a prominent cancer specialist in Manhattan who uses relaxation tools (along with advice on nutrition, supplements and other wellness modalities) together with mainstream treatment with his cancer patients. Mitchell Gaynor, M.D., a cancer specialist and Clinical Professor of Medicine at the Weill-Medical College of Cornell University, has used an “integrative” approach to cancer for 15 years. He discusses this approach in his 2003 book, “The Healing Power of Sound: Recovery from Life-Threatening Illness Using Sound, Voice, and Music.”

Gaynor’s relaxation tool of choice? The metal (or crystal) singing bowl, which has aided Buddhist meditation, prayer and chanting for potentially thousands of years. By circling a bowl with a playing mallet, the bowl creates a rich blend of harmonic resonances and overtones. Along with simple meditative exercises, the long, droning sounds produced by the bowls can help bring about or intensify the meditative state discussed above. According to written reports, similar brain synchronization occurs when listening to the audio patterns of the bowls.

Gaynor discusses the stress reduction and Relaxation properties of the singing bowls, but in one article noted that “meditation with the bowls takes us outside of our own fears. And the patient at peace with himself puts up the best fight against cancer.”(6) Due to the popularity of such approaches with patients, as well increasing scientific research demonstrating the health benefits of stress management approaches, many cancer programs have incorporated the techniques and tools that Dr. Gaynor has been using for over 15 years.

A Few Relaxation Product Recommendations

In this section, I’d like to recommend a few products for you to consider. For each of the three examples, I offer a “high-end” and “bargain” product option and information on where to purchase them. I have personally used these products and, in some cases, have met or interviewed the providers. I am not receiving any commissions on sales of products due to this article; I simply have benefited from and enjoyed using them. Also, they are not the only products available in these categories. The Internet allows us to conduct product research and comparison shopping like never before. Disclaimer: all of these products (and any meditative experience) can create powerful emotions, evoke long-forgotten memories, and generally be jarring to someone experiencing such a profound experience for the first time. I suggest you work with a health professional who understands such products and conduct extensive research on any of the products you’re considering purchasing!!!!!!

Robert Monroe started conducting research on sound’s impact on states of consciousness back in the 1950′s, during a successful career in the radio broadcasting business. Monroe Products produces Hemi-Sync(R) audio products and its predecessor companies have been doing so since the early 1960′s. Monroe also started a non-profit Institute in 1985, which provides numerous on and off-site educational programs. Product Recommendation. Introductory CD package from Monroe Products: “A Gateway Experience: Wave I – Discovery” This product covers a variety of topics. Price: $99.

Bargain Option: Head to iTunes and purchase a single track for $0.99 from White Noise Meditation’s “Waterfall Entrainment” album. Take a look at the brain wave chart above a pick a track that sounds right for you based on the state of relaxation you wish to achieve. You can also purchase the whole album for under $8.00.

Light-Sound Machine (AVS) Relaxation Products

David Siever of Mind Alive has been developing AVS products since 1984. Based in Alberta, Canada, Dave and his team hold many professional training and learning programs on AVS technology. He also has conducted extensive, published research on the effectiveness of AVS to treat a variety of conditions, such as ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, pain and others. I consider Dave Siever to be the person who has made the most extensive, research-based effort to bring light-sound technology into mainstream healthcare. Product Recommendation. The DAVID PALTM, an easy to use and small but comprehensive AVS device. Price: $260 plus shipping.

Bargain Option: MindPlace’s Sirius Light and Sound Machine. MindPlace has been in the AVS business for almost 20 years. Small and compact, this product is a great and economical way to start your AVS relaxation program. Price: About $99 plus shipping. Check around the Internet for the best price.

My recommendation is that you research to check if you can attend a group session in your area. Some yoga studios, for example, hold singing bowl groups. (Drumming circles are another option, as they involve repetitive beats and focused attention.) You’ll have a lot of fun at either event. You can pick up a singing bowl from literally hundreds of providers on the Internet. Prices range from less than $50 to more than hundreds of dollars to well over $1,000, depending on the materials used or whether it’s an antique from Tibet.

The Meditation of Heaven and Earth

The instructions that follow are simplified so that anyone can do this.

You can be living anywhere on Earth. Just find a quiet place and sit comfortably, on the Earth itself if possible, and close your eyes.

Begin to breathe rhythmically and evenly — meaning that you inhale in the same amount of time that you exhale. Relax, and let your everyday thoughts go. Just simply follow your breath.

In your inner vision, see a beautiful scene from nature. Whatever you see as beautiful, whether it is in the mountains, the desert, the ocean — it doesn’t matter. If it is the mountains, for example, you might see their peaks covered with snow. You might picture rivers, trees, and the animals, and see white, billowing clouds in the sky. Breathe in the clean, fresh mountain air. Do something similar with whatever place you have chosen that is dear to your heart. And in your heart, feel the love that you have for nature and for Mother Earth. Allow this love to become strong until your very body feels this love.

Then take this love that you have for Mother Earth and place it in a little ball — perhaps two inches across — and with your intention send this little ball filled with your love down to the center of the Earth. You send it with the intention that Mother Earth feels the love that you have for Her. And then you wait.

You wait for Mother Earth to send Her love back to you. She always will, as you are Her child. Some people experience it immediately and for others it takes a little while. It is a very real experience. It is not an intellectual thing. It is not you saying to yourself, ”I am now feeling Mother Earth’s love.” When Mother Earth’s love returns to you, it will be as sweet as the time that your own mother looked into your eyes when you were a baby. Feel this love, and let it move all through your body. Let it move through every cell in your body. Let it move even into your Light Body, and all that you are. And for a time — as long as you wish — simply stay in this connected love, with yourself in the arms of the Divine Mother.

When the time seems right, and without breaking the connection with the Divine Mother, turn your attention to the Divine Father, who is the rest of creation other than the Earth.

In your inner vision, see a night sky filled with the multitude of stars of the Milky Way. See the planets, the sun (which would have to be over the horizon), and the moon. See the beauty of Creation, and feel the love that you have for the Divine Father. Allow this love to grow stronger until you are ready to burst with tears of love.

And then, just as with the Mother, gather this love and put it into a little ball, and with your intention send it into the Heavens. Either send it to the sacred grids around the Earth, if you understand them, or send it to the Central Sun, if you understand what that means. Or — which is what most indigenous people do — send it to our own sun. It is your intention that matters. And then you wait.

As with the Mother, you wait until the Father sends His love back to you. He always will, as you are His son. When you feel this love return to you, let it move throughout your body and to all your cells. Let it move even into your Light Body and all that you are. Again, you can stay in this love with the Father as long as you wish.

Realize that at this moment you are in love with the Divine Mother and Father at the same time. This is extremely rare, for a human being to experience this. And realize even further that the Holy Trinity is now being manifest on Earth. The Divine Mother, the Divine Father, and you — the Divine Child — are all bound by Love in a Holy Triangle.

According to Sri Yukteswar, it is only from this sacred place of the Holy Trinity that the Creator can be seen so clearly and experienced so directly.

Now, without breaking the bonds of love between your Divine Parents, simply allow the presence of God to be experienced directly. Allow God to come within your body as well as all around you. What happens now is between you and God. Trust yourself, as you are a Child of God. Believe in yourself, as you are one with the Source.

From this point on, there are no words.

May this meditation be a blessing in your life and to all those you touch.
