Sun Salutation or "Good morning!"

Morning. Shower. Coffee. Cigarette ... Even if instead of coffee do you drink orange juice or green tea, and a very bad habit, like smoking, you are completely characterized, it is still in such regulations about what is missing. And lacking a very important component. Do not want to discover America, but it is not enough morning exercises. People in older age groups, the words "morning exercise" reminiscent of upbeat music on the radio and the words of speaker: "One, two, tilt left, tilt right" and that there is still talked about. Those who are younger, think about the set of exercises, aerobics, dancing or at least in bed ... and you can start them in bed, and continue...

But let's start from the beginning. Having conducted a survey among friend’s ladies of various ages, I found that very few people doing morning exercises. Reasons? Everything was very simple. One lady prevented excess weight and complexity of the exercise (much like the argument that if she will stomp and jump from neighbors plaster from the ceiling). Someone was in the morning too little time and even 15-20 minutes (I'm not talking about a full half-hour charge) - it's too much. Someone is after charging is too overheated, and in this form would not venture out of the house.

Meditation - Meditation on the form

Use of visual consciousness as a means spokoeniya mind technically called a "meditation on form." But do not be afraid of this title. In fact, meditation on the form is very simple. In fact, we unconsciously practice it every day when we look at a computer screen or on a traffic light. When we raise this unconscious process to the level of active consciousness, intentionally directing their attention to a particular object, the mind becomes very calm, open and relaxed.

I was taught to start with a very small facility, located close enough to see it without straining. This may be a colored spot on the floor, a candle flame, picture, and even head of a man sitting in front of you in the audience. Just nice to look at an object that has spiritual significance, often called the pure form. If you are a Buddhist, then such an object could be an image or statue of the Buddha, being a Christian, you can focus on the cross or on the face of a saint. If you belong to some other religious traditions, select the object, which has for you a special sacred significance. When you become accustomed to this practice, it becomes possible to focus even thought-forms - objects that you just extract from the visual memory.

Meditation - Meditation on the pain.

Feeling cold, heat, hunger, overeating, weight, dizziness, migraine, dental pain, nasal congestion, sore throat, pain in the knees or lower back very directly - though not always pleasant - appear awareness.

Because pain and discomfort related to such a direct sense, they are very suitable as sites for meditative concentration.

Most of us feel the pain threatened physical well-being. On the one hand, when we worry or to fixate on the threat, the pain is almost always increased. On the other hand, if we feel pain or discomfort object of meditation, you can use these experiences to enhance the clarity, just watching how the mind deals with different solutions.

Meditation on the physical sensations

To start straighten the spine and relax the body.

If you do all the rules, you can take a previously described seven-position . If you're in a place where to adopt such a posture is not possible, simply straighten your spine and let the rest of the body to relax comfortably. It does not matter, open or closed your eyes during practice. In fact, some people believe that it is easier to keep your eyes closed. (Of course, if you are driving or walking down the street, then I would strongly recommend that you do not close your eyes!)

Let your mind dwell for a moment just as it really is ...

Now slowly move your attention to the forehead ...

Perhaps you feel at this point slight tingling or a sensation of heat. You might even appear itching or pressure. Whatever you feel, just allow yourself to realize it for a minute or two ...

Just heed this ...

Just send your attention to this feeling ...

Then leave your care and allow the mind to stay so, as it is. If your eyes were closed, now they can open.

How does it feel?

Meditation - The gates of perception.

Buddhists, like Western science, recognize the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. In Buddhism, the five sensory abilities are called the gates of perception - the etymology of this metaphor is related to the entrance of the house.

Most of our feelings and perceptions are our experience through one or more of these doors. But as the five faculties of feelings - or sense of consciousness as they are called in the Buddhist texts - can detect only sense perceptions, the Buddhist science adds a sixth sense - the mental consciousness. In this sixth consciousness is nothing mystical or occult. It has nothing to do with extrasensory perception or the ability to communicate with spirits. This is simply the ability to distinguish between the mind and evaluate what we see, hear, we taste, smell and palpable.
