These can help strengthen your body, relax you, and prevent some of the lean tissue loss that is a hallmark of HIV infection. Indeed, the focused state you get into can be its own form of meditation. If you have a religious tradition, use the best parts of your faith and throw out the bigotry. If you are an agnostic or an atheist, you can still use these techniques for yourself and your loved ones. It can't hurt and it's free.
Visualization is another form of meditation.
In visualization, you may, for example, imagine the strong and powerful forces of your immune system vanquishing the feeble and nasty little HIVs. Create your own imagery and just relax and try it. It works better when you create strong, powerful images for your immune system warriors and think of the HIV as something you can break or stop. Massage and body work can also be very helpful. If you have a life partner or other family members or friends around you, start giving each other massages periodically.
