The link on Mediatation was called just that and broke down what I had learned in Transpersonal. It s tated that all forms of meditation incorporate 3 main areas. These areas include physical relaxation, mental focus, and spiritual experience. These are very important in the meditation process. The relaxation of the. mind and sprit results in a sense o f peace and balance.
Most people begin by sitting up right on the floor or a comfortable cushion.
One must either focus on an object, thought, smell or even repeat a mantra. This is all a part of centering. One concentrates on an object or thought and this allows for freedom of thought. I found this meditation process very helpful in traffic psychology for it helped me to view driving in a new light. Taking deep breaths and allowing my life as well as my driving to come into focus.
