Connection Exercise:



========================
The Connection Exercise
========================
Meditation is a powerful tool for aligning with universal energy, and feeling
more connected to your environment and the people surrounding you.
Want to be in a constant state of flow?
Have a more positive mindset?
Empathize with your friends and co-workers? 
Just follow these steps the next time you sit down to meditate:
1. Close your eyes and visualize a source of energy streaming down from your
crown chakra on the tip of your head, moving down from your spine, rooting
itself below your feet and then expanding outwards.
2. Imagine this energy flowing into your surroundings, starting from the room
or the area you're sitting in, and expanding to your city, country, continent and the world.
3. Visualize yourself sending out love and positive energy to the entire world.
4. Remind yourself that feeling connected enriches your life and energizes you.
It positively charges you so you can take on the day feeling blissful, accomplishing goals
with ease and feeling a sense of love and connection within everything you do.
 
BONUS TIP:
Want to stay in a state of connectedness even after you meditate?
Bestselling spiritual author Neale Donald Walsch recommends
the following waking meditation exercise:
The next time you're in a public place and you see something or someone
who makes you angry or uncomfortable (for instance an inconsiderate person
who cuts the line at the grocery store), just tell yourself…
"There I go again, being inconsiderate."
Modify that sentence according to the scenario. For instance if you encounter
a rude bus driver, tell yourself "There I go again, being rude".
The simple act of thinking these words will remind you that we are all
in fact connected - and that what one person experiences or does is a part of a
joint consciousness, embracing us all.
That's it for today. Remember to meditate for at least 10 minutes today
and try out the Connection Exercise.
 
Happy Om-ing
