But, meditation is often overlooked because most people think that you have to have an empty mind, sit in the lotus position, or be a Zen guru! No wonder it's overlooked!

The reality is that meditation, any form of meditation, can help you access deeper levels of awareness. Which leads to manifesting your dreams, when combined with focused visualization.

No, you do not have to have an empty mind for it to work.

No, you do not have to sit in the lotus position.

No, you need not be a guru for it to work for you.

No, you need not be in a silent room or be completely silent yourself.

Meditation itself is not a goal or an achievable process. It's an experience. And each of us have a unique experience during meditation. No meditative experience can be wrong or right.

Some people use meditative music to assist with the experience. Again, each persons experience is unique.

What is consistent across everybody is the ability to manifest goals through meditation. When meditating, you experience a deeper sense of joy and relaxation. When you combine your thoughts of what you intend to manifest, you associate positive thoughts, positive energy, and call upon the manifesting power of the universe to co-create your reality.

It's a lot like day dreaming, except you are in a focused state of mind that is only visualizing the end result of your dreams. To maximize results, follow these steps:

1) Set aside 10-30 minutes everyday to meditate
2) While meditating, first get into a positive state of mind and visualize inspiring objects, like a flower or stream of water
3) After visualizing inspiring objects, begin visualizing your dreams
4) Use sight, smell, touch, taste, and emotion in your visualizing
5) Always visualize the end result, never picture the "hows" of your dreams because the universal mind (God) knows the best way to manifest your dreams
6) At the end of the meditation, release your attachments to the end result to the cosmos
7) Repeat everyday for at least 30 days

These seven steps outlined above is a road map towards successful manifesting through meditation and visualization. If followed properly with positive intention, your dreams must come to pass. It is the law of attraction at work.

May your journey be blessed!
