Today finally feels like spring! I was able to walk around my property to find a quiet area to quickly reconnect with my soul, God, and the universe. I do this by meditating a few times per week. Ever since I started practicing meditating it has brought so much peace and happiness into my life. It’s almost like experiencing a piece of heaven here on earth. Meditation is a practice where people train their mind to a mode of consciousness. It helps you get to a state of deep peace that occurs when the mind is completely emptied. When my mind is totally calm and silent, I feel strongly connected to God.
Meditation Is Great Because It:
- reduces stress
- increases calmness and clarity
- helps fight depression
- helps you stay focus
- blocks negative thinking
- promotes happiness
While I meditate I like wearing clothes that help me stay positive like this fascinating OM Spiritual Starburst Muscle T-shirt from Vibration Apparel. This heartfelt company focuses on the good in each and every super soft, yoga-inspired shirt from their uniquely designed collection. Vibration Apparel deeply believes that life is an echo: what you send out to the universe comes back to you. I really like the color and strong Om graphic design details in front of it. In addition, it is trendy enough to wear with any color denim, khaki pants, shorts or skirts. Personally, I cannot wait to wear it with my denim overalls.
Meditation Techniques:
There are different ways to meditate. I personally enjoy meditating outdoors when the weather is nice. The peaceful noises of nature and wind whispering in my ear help me relax quickly. Also, the sound of rain drops hitting the rooftop of the cathedral ceilings of my house and the sound of thunder relaxes me even more.
During winter months, I tend to wait until everyone leaves the house. I turn on my favorite app like Relaxtopia which help me get into that relaxation stage. My favorite sound to listen on the app is the Om meditation sound. Om is a mantra, or vibration, that is traditionally chanted while meditating. In Hinduism, Om is one of the most important spiritual symbols such as soul, self within.
Don’t forget to take deep breaths and gently inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth, namaste♥
I know so many people that love to meditate. It gives them lots of benefits. 🙂
I’m sure it does!
I’ve actually just started to meditate. I find it hard to achieve true relaxation, I suspect this comes with practice. I really believe in the benefits of meditation so I’m looking forward to continuing to get better at it. Thanks for this post.
Yes it does take practice. 🙂
I know lots of people do this. I’m just not sure if I’m mature enough for it. I tend to get the giggles at the worst moments.
It takes practice. 🙂
Cool om top! I meditate all the time and love it.
Glad to hear you like the top! 🙂
I have an Om tattoo. Need to get that top!!!
So cool! I want an Om tattoo. Glad to hear you like the Om top.:D
I also like wearing positive clothing and accessories. Great post by the way!
Thank you Tiana! 🙂
I never knew meditating has so many benefits. The om t-shirt is beautiful. I am going to check what other tees they have.
Doesn’t it? Glad to hear you like it too.
I love to meditate. I feel so centered. I think thats why I love Buddhist temples too. The incense, chanting and peace and serenity are amazing to the soul.
I sure is! I totally agree with you Stacey! 🙂
I need to learn how to empty my mind. I’ve tried to meditate but I am terrible at sticking to a routine.
In the beginning it was hard for me too.
Great post!! As a mom of 3 under the age of 5, I’m beginning to go a bit bonkers and really need to start daily meditation, maybe after the kids go down. Thanks for the app idea, I’m gonna check out Relaxtopia!
You’re welcome! I’m sure it will help you feel more relaxed. 🙂
I’ve never tried meditating but need to start. Love the tee design too.
You will love it! Glad to hear you like it!!
I loved your top! Also, I love your post about meditation. How cool is that, it reduces stress and yes, promotes happiness. I have been meditating since I was 16 and I can say that it’s great! I recommend it to many people! But there is so much to learn, always. It must be great meditating outdoors, but I confess that I prefer doing it indoors! Wishing you a lovely day!
Wow, I cannot believe you have been meditating since 16. I was someone introduced it to me at a younger age. Glad to hear you like the top and have a lovely day as well, Denise. 🙂
Meditation provides so many great benefits. As a busy and sometimes stressed Mommy, I should really remember to practice this more often. I love your OM tee and this location looks like such a beautiful place to meditate.
We sure need to remember to take time for ourselves so that we can take care of our loved ones better. I’m so lucky that this is my part of my property here in PA, love it so much! Also, glad to hear you like the OM tee. 🙂
I love meditation myself. I could totally relate to this. The quiet and the stillness are so peaceful and SO healing. I love that tank too; it’s cute.
You are so right Brandi! Glad to hear you like the top too! 🙂
Sometimes taking time out of your day to stop and be still is just what people need. So many people get too caught up in business in life and forget to stop and take a deep breath and enjoy the sunshine.
This is so true Michaela!
That setting is gorgeous. Of course, we can meditate anywhere but a place with so much natural beauty and soothing sounds helps a lot too. Thanks for these cool tips.
This is so true!
We really need to meditate more. We tried headspace app for 10 days and could really feel the benefits.
It does work quickly!
I really like the idea of meditating. It’s a great way to calm yourself down and get rid of all your stress. It also helps you become more positive.
I totally agree Carol, it sure does!
One of the reasons I chose yoga as my daily exercise is for the chance to meditate as well while getting fit. I love being able to free my mind of worries and just living in the moment.
I totally agree! This is why I love practicing yoga too!
Meditation is so incredible. I have anxiety and was advised to practice meditation and mindfulness and it really has helped immensely. It’s so simple to do as well and improves focus.
Ellie
It definitely eliminated my anxiety as well!
I also like meditating in a peaceful place with a mild breeze of air. It brings out my bad chi and replaced with good chi.
I totally agree!
A much-needed share, given to how much stress people are going through, and the inability to set it aside while it leeches out our positive energy!
This is so true!
Meditation really is a great stress reliever! We should all incorporate it into out lives
xo

I agree! We all should incorporate it into our lives.
Mindfulness is also a great complimentary practice. I find meditation hard unless it’s guided.
I’m sure some people need to be guided.
I tried meditating once. I never really got into it though. I love your necklace though.
Thank you Ashlea!
I love to meditate! I try at least 3 times a day. Definitely start my day off with it!
That’s amazing! My goal is to do it at leave once a day. Then would love to meditate at leave twice a day.
