I spent fifteen years reading spiritual books before I ever sat down to meditate.
Adyashanti. Ramakrishna. Nisargadatta. My shelf overflowed with wisdom from teachers I'd never met. I could discuss non-duality with confidence. I understood the concept of ego dissolution. I could quote the Bhagavad Gita.
And I had learned almost nothing.
The real education started the moment I stopped talking about spirituality and started practicing it.
## Knowledge About vs. Knowledge Of
There's a fundamental difference between reading about enlightenment and touching it yourself.

Meditation is a foundational practice along your spiritual journey.
It's truly a treasure chest full of gifts for you, from you.
## Self Discovery
As you allow yourself to drop into your inner world, your self-awareness immediately begins to grow.
"Where attention goes, energy flows".
You start to become familiar with your mind.
Your thought patterns.
Your inner voices.
You see how your inner world has always been shaping your external world.
Realizing all of these pieces contribute to creating your reality.

If you prefer using natural products, you've probably heard of essential oils — compounds extracted from plants to capture their "essence" or scent. Their healing properties are well-documented by scientists, with research showing that these complex organic substances contain multiple [properties that yield positive psychogenic effects](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7309671/). They possess antimicrobial, antiviral, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties and have been shown to relieve stress, treat depression, and help with insomnia.

Last year I did a webinar on why meditation is important for the law of attraction. The webinar breaks it down into first understanding meditation, then we discuss the scientific benefits. Of course, you know with the law of attraction, it goes beyond the scientific realm of belief. As a conscious creator, we know that we create our reality. This is something science as a whole has not been able to understand.

The following is an excerpt from my latest book, [Healing and the Law of Attraction](https://amzn.to/2Y3mbs1)
Becoming aware of self is an essential part of improving your health. It means becoming consciously aware of what is going on in your body and how you feel. It means being more grounded in your body and being less in your chaotic monkey mind.
Having an abundance of chaotic thoughts means that you are literally “in your head.” When this occurs, you cannot be aware of the feelings and sensations given to

Passive observation is a state of “non-thinking”. When your mind is relaxed and in a “non- thinking state”, you are freely allowing source energy to flow through you. There is no resistance due to negative thoughts. You are shifting the energies of resistant thought to thought energies of allowance. Being in the state of “non-thinking” requires practice. The more you practice, the more you will bring this stillness into your life.
Passive observation can also be described as a state of non-judgement. When you are in a state

Low vibrations attract people, situations, environments, etc. that are in a lower vibration - examples are sadness, pain, discomfort, anger, frustration, worry, disconnection, etc.

Warming up before meditation can make the difference between a relaxing session and a session that just feels very uncomfortable.
Whenever I am coaching someone about meditation, warming up is one tip I like to give. Warming up is something that is often overlooked and undervalued. It is common to think that when you meditate, you just jump right into sitting down without doing any type of preparation. Well first, thinking that you have to sit down to meditate is one misconception to be addressed in another article.

All too often, there is a tendency for people to be very serious about what they are doing. There is a need to do something and do it “perfectly”. They push, push, push and try so hard that it almost takes the spark out of life. This is definitely the case when they feel they don’t have much time and have to force it.
Unfortunately, the result of the pushing is a tendency to cause restriction and resistance. This is something I find a lot for beginner meditators

A brief search for a definition of meditation in your standard dictionary will produce several definitions similar to the following:
- to engage in contemplation or reflection.
- to engage in mental exercise (such as concentration on one’s breathing or repetition of a mantra) for the purpose of reaching a heightened level of spiritual awareness.
- to focus on one’s thoughts: reflect on or ponder over.
- to plan or project in the mind.
Let’s take out the definitions involving contemplation or reflection and stick moreso to the spiritual awareness aspect. As

The cumulative affects that you feel from a daily meditation practice is greater than that which you feel from a periodic practice. Even a daily meditation practice of only 5 minutes is a good start. Think consistency over longevity.
A daily meditation practice trains your mind and body in many aspects. It trains your mind and body to relax, to focus, to let go, to be present, to ground, etc. These are just some of the benefits of meditation. It also helps you to [reprogram your subconscious mind](http://www.seekwithinyou.com/blogs/134-the-power-of-your-subconscious-mind-the-law-of-attraction)

In basic terms, a chaotic mind causes “chaos” in the body. If you hold the “chaotic vibration” long enough, then very profound blockages in the physical, mental/emotional and spiritual bodies occurs. These blockages are what many term “dis-ease”.
### Example
Worry about a situation causes stress hormones to be released. If you worry occasionally, then the stress hormones
