made over the years to walk you through
meditations. I suggest taking the guided
route when you’re first starting out if
you’re having trouble wrangling your
mind into submission. They make great
training wheels and I still use them
occasionally, especially if I want to
focus on something specific.
There are also guided meditation
centers all over the place, and it’s really
nice every once in a while to meditate in
a group— you can really feed off that
energy and get the discipline to sit there
for an extended period of time. Do a
search for meditation centers and
ashrams in your area. Sometimes yoga
studios hold guided meditations, too.
