A daily 5 minute meditation practice for the busy mind

This daily meditation practice (also called mindfulness) is an effective way to quieten the mind and allow the self to experience the benefits of being in the now.  Being in the now allows the individual to forget the past and the future, and appreciate what you have right now.  Experiencing this on a regular basis (ie practicing daily) allows one to manage the mind and therefore develop control over complicated situations...

Please take your time with this exercise - assume you have all the time in the world.
OK Lets get started.  Find a comfortable place to sit (on a chair with your back straight or cross legged on the floor) where you won't be disturbed.  The head and the neck area should not feel strained.  Keep your hands relaxed on the lap and palms facing up.

With your eyes closed follow steps a), b) and c):

a)  Firstly, if you are seated on a chair keeping your feet flat on the floor, visualise roots growing from under your feet and into the ground.  If you are seated on the floor see your spine extending from the base and into the ground.  Keep going till you hit the centre of the earth.  Feel your roots locked in, keeping you firmly on the ground.  This will help you to feel secure. 
Spend 1 min on this.

b)  Secondly bringing your focus back to yourself start breathing normally (ie rythematically).  As you inhale feel the air entering the nostrils and then as you exhale feel the air exiting you nostril.  The point at which the air enters and exits will vary from person to person.  You will notice this point if you concentrate fully - you will feel the air gently touching your skin at that very point.  At no point during this exercise should you hold your breath.  This will help you to focus on what is happening now.
Spend 2 mins on this.

c)  Thirdly you are going to change the rythem of your breathing.  Now you will be working with deep breathing.  Inhale deeply.  Feel your abdomen expanding full of air, then your ribs expanding and finally feel your lungs full of air.  Next exhale completely - feel all the air exiting your lungs, then feel your ribs contracting and then feel all the air exiting your abdomen.  At no point during this exercise should you hold your breath.  This will enable optimum oxygenation of your cells and maximum removal of waste.  This leads to improved memory function and increased brain performance.
Spend 2 mins on this.

Calmly return to normal breathing.  Feel yourself secured to the earth and open your eyes when ready.

Here are a few challenges:
1)  Spend 1 min on (a) or even less, 5 mins on (b) and 5 mins on (c).  Approximately a total of 10 mins
2)  Do the 5 min exercise with noise around you
3)  Do the 10 min exercise with noise around you

Good Luck!!

Healing testimonial

In January 2011 I started working on a family living in the USA which I completed beginning of March 2011.  Obviously I will carry on providing advice and additional healings as and when necessary.  My client sent me a wonderful testimonial about a week ago which I felt I had to show you.  It gives hope to those of you who feel that they are in a never ending rut.  The testimonial is as I received it word for word .  If anyone wishes to contact this client, for what ever reason, please let me know (giving reasons) and I will try to put you in touch with her.

If you would like to find out about how I could help you, please contact me on: contact@mindbodysoulsanctuary.com

Iam a single mother raising my two daughter's alone for 8 years now. They are 13 and 10. We were having really bad night mares for months as well as suffering from arguments, frustration and anger. I thought the place we lived in was haunted. 

A friend told me about Medini, and she was a distant healer and could help us. I told Medini of our situation, she began the healing on us three right away. She said our home had darkness and she would help us. I began to listen to what she taught me to do by sending love like a light of pink, to any situation or person that I was having trouble with. This was amazing as it worked right away. As she did the healing's on me, I felt a little sick and restless at night. I could feel the negative energy leaving my body and spirit a little each day. She helped me to focus on what is happing in my life at the very moment. She told me of many situations that helped me to better raise my daughters in a calmer energy. Our night mares have completely vanished and we are living a calmer, more trustworthy family life style. 

I trust Medini's advice whole heartedly and to the fullest. I would trust her healing's and positive advice to any one of my loved ones. She is a true blessing in my life. My life has changed completely since she did the healing's on me and my daughters. Iam very grateful for her healing's, advice and the positive energy she taught me to use!

She also did healing's on a dear friend of mine. He too had emotional stress, anger and buildup over the years along with drinking alcohol many times a week. She did the healing on him. He also had restlessness and sick feeling to his stomach for a few days as well. He has changed 90% from how his life was seven months ago into a much positive person. I can tell a dramatic difference in his attitude and self confidence. Iam very thankful for this as well.

I believe Medini is a  gift from God to all of us. She is a inspiration to have in ones life to help them heal, change the course of thinking from negative to positive along with sending love to another. Her advice is true and good natured. I love her for all the help she sent me, all the advice she gave me and the lessons I learned from her are still helpful to this day.

Ego and the Law of Attraction

What does the ego mean to you and how will working with it and knowing more about it help you work with the law of attraction effectively? 

This is such a vast topic and I can go on talking about it.  I will, however, keep it short and talk about ego as I see it, very briefly  as I intend purely on showing you the link between the ego and the law of attraction.

The ego was given to us at birth, in order for us to survive on earth as what we call a human being.  As we grew our ego from birth absorbed information from the surrounding which include our parents, siblings, other people around us and circumstances we faced.  The ego (which consists of our personality mind) keeps changing as we grow, it is never fixed and is unique to every individual.  The ego does not necessarily listen to the true heart as it is constantly led by the personality mind..  One will start working with the true heart when the heart and mind join and work together.  In other words any action is carried out once the heart and mind both agree.

The point where the ego starts to work with the true spiritual heart / the soul (which is all about giving / radiating love) is just the beginning stages to working with the laws of attraction effectively.  Once you start connecting with the heart deeply, everything is done with love, the highest frequency, the frequency of the divine energy.

How do you do it?

It is not as complicated as it seems.  First and foremost one needs to want to do it.  If you truly and deeply want to do something, your love will automatically pour into it.  Your ego / the personality mind will obviously come up with fears which will create walls along your path.  Don't fight it, appreciate the information you are being given and pour love to it.  This is easier said than done when all you want to do is bang your head against a wall.  However practice does make it perfect.

Creating gentle positive statements alongside any negative threats will give you the opportunity to slowly break the walls down with love.

Just persevere.....you will eventually get there.  If it means you get help, get it and you will get the results you want.
