I was wondering how many of you engage in meditation and if so what kind? I went to a new group today that does mindful meditation. It comes out of a buddihist tradition. It was really awesome experience to me. I enjoyed. I think I am going to try to spend some time meditating everyday. I was only doing it once a week, but I think it would be beneficial to do once a day...Any one have any ideas on some good meditation books that I could read and do mindful meditation...

I do Iyanga Yoga and meditation everyday of the week. I have my instructor with me once a week and then I do 30 minutes of yoga followed by at least 15 minutes meditation a day.
I love it.

Hello Wonderwoman77
I am a firm believer in meditation,there are plenty of books on this subject,go to www.amazon.com if you are in a america,type in books then meditation and numerous titles will appear.For me personally i take about 1 hour a day and sit in silence,sometimes i feel i want to listen to music,it depends how i am feeling.

Jedd...I am not an expert in meditation, but there are some simple instructions that can be found at meditationcenter.com They do a good job simply describing meditation. I usually do the mindful meditation or the inner light one. I was looking to find some books that had some sayings I could meditate on. Thanks for the suggestion QCA...

When i decided to meditate, i read two books by lawrence leshan, 'the medium, the mystic and the physicist' and 'how to meditate' - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0553244531/qid=1013387942/sr=1-8/ref=sr_1_8/103-7469787-4979049
In the second book, he describes many meditation methods. I settled on counting outbreaths from one to five. I did this 15 minutes a day for quite a while. It gives me a bit more centered , peaceful feeling that lasts. He is totally non religious.SS
