비거게임(bigger game)과 명상(meditation)의 단계들
비거게임(bigger game)과 명상(meditation)의 단계들 비거게임(bigger game)에 대하여 제가 올린 글을 보고 한국
비거게임(bigger game) 대표를 맡고 계신 박영준 대표님의 글을 읽고, 제가 다시 자료를 검색해 보고 고민해 보았습니다. 이 글을 박영준 대표님께서도 읽으실 줄을 알고, 아래의 글에 대하여 과연 이런 것들이 뉴에이지 운동과 관련이 없는 것인지 말해 주시기 바랍니다. ------------------------------------ 인용 자료 시작 ------------------------------------  It has been said that it takes 21 days to form a habit. My last challenge was 10 days long, now I’m stepping up to play a bigger game. Here is my next challenge….beginning tomorrow, I commit to 21 days of meditation. I was introduced to Isha Kriya by my good friend, Dr. Ghislain. When you submit your e-mail address at www.ishafoundation.org, they will send you a link for a free guided meditation session. You can also click on this link http://www.ishafoundation.org/Ishakriya/Learn-online. This guided meditation lasts about 20-25 minutes. Who would like more peace and awareness in their lives? Post a comment if you’d like to join me in the discovery of meditation. Thank you to all those who participated in the 21 day Meditation Challenge. It’s never too late to start. Below are links to the posts for each day. Feel free to comment on your experience. Day 1 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 2 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 3 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 4 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 5 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 6 and 7 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 8 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 9 and 10 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 11 and 12 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 13 and 14 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 15 and 16 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 17, 18 and 19 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 20 and 21 Guided Meditation Challenge 명상의 단계에 대하여 말하는 글을 옮기면 다음과 같습니다. Day 1 Guided Meditation Challenge I started the first day of my meditation challenge today. As I sat down to begin, my mind began to wander right away. It took what seemed like several minutes before I remembered that I was supposed to be present. I would then pay attention for a bit and then continue to think of all the things I had to get done today. This continued throughout the session. What are your suggestions Dr. Ghislain for calming the thoughts that come up from the mind? Day 2 Guided Meditation Challenge Today I was better able to allow myself to observe my thoughts and let them pass. My mind did wander and then I was able to come back and focus when it did. What I was most aware of today, was the inability to sit still. I keep shifting positions and then when I get settled, something would itch, my nose, my forehead, my knee and I would move again to scratch. Dr. Ghislain, is it better to move and scratch an itch or to sit still knowing that it will pass? Day 3 Guided Meditation Challenge Today I resolved to sit still no matter what comes up. As you predicted, I started to itch and when I ignored it, more areas became itchy. I told myself that this too shall pass, and it did! It’s interesting to observe some of the tricks of my mind. After the itching stopped, my mind started creating pictures of things I feared. It was as if I was trying to scare myself into having to stop doing what I was doing. I almost fell for the story I created and then reminded myself that nothing was happening to me in this moment and that there was nothing to fear. I was able to then finish the meditation. Dr. Ghislain, is it common to experience emotions during meditation? If so, it is a matter of simply observing them and letting them go? Day 4 Guided Meditation Challenge Today, I noticed that it took less time to settle into the meditation. Thoughts came and went and I observed the space between the thoughts get longer and longer, like they were running in slow motion. I felt a mild tingling, energy like sensation in the palms of my hands, similar to what I feel when getting an entrainment in level 2c. After the meditation, it occurred to me that I spend quite a bit of time out of the present moment, either day dreaming or thinking about what’s next. Knowing this now, I can observe when I’m not here and remind myself to come back. As Dr. G pointed out to me, this also requires a lot of energy not to be in the moment. Energy that I could choose to use elsewhere. Thanks Dr. Ghislain for the continued support. Much appreciated. Day 5 Guided Meditation Challenge Today it seemed like I was distracted and it took longer to settle down into the meditation. Reflecting back now, I would say that I was having a stage 2 (see aside below) experience with the meditation. Parts of me were frustrated that I was not doing the meditation “properly”. Other parts were observing the moment of warmth I felt and tingling in my hands and then making judgements of it being “good”. I was happy when it was “good” and frustrated when it was “bad”. There was no joy in the “happy” because my mind was happy only because things were going according to my expectations. Interesting to observe the polarity. Aside- Stage 2 is in reference to the 12 stages of Healing from Dr. Donny Epstein. Stage 2 is about polarities, different rhythms and developing attachments. For more info, I’m doing a workshop on Feb. 21 at my office for Stages 1 through 3. Days 6 and 7 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 6 Today I noticed that I was more appreciative of nature. I went snowboarding, the sun was shining, the skies were blue, the temperature was great, there was a nice view of the valley and I was with friends. The meditation added more depth to the experience. As well, when I was going down a particularly hard section on the hill, in the past, I would panic and get scared of what was coming up before I got there. Today, I focused only on where I was on the hill and in the moment and there was no fear. Day 7 I was not consciously aware of anything new today that I could attribute to the meditation. Could you perhaps suggest some areas that I can observe or focus on? Day 8 Guided Meditation Challenge I decided to do the meditation twice today. I must confess that I don’t actually enjoy doing the 18 minute meditation itself, however, the benefits I experience during the rest of the day have exceeded my expectations…and it’s only just begun! Today, what came to my attention was that I would focus on observing my mind and it’s thoughts. If thoughts were the different tv channels, I would be the person watching the thoughts or the person watching tv. If I had a thought that came up that didn’t serve me, I would change the “channel”, similar to when I see a commercial or something I don’t like on the tv. I made a game of it to see how often I would get caught up believing I was an actor in the show of my thoughts as opposed to the person watching them. During my second meditation, there was a moment of inspiration that came to play my piano. I can’t even remember the last time I played it. Going to go do that now. Days 9 and 10 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 9 Yesterday, when I went to play the piano, I was inspired to learn a new song at my level. The last time I did this would have been when I was taking lessons over 10 years ago! Today, I had a moment where I was getting frustrated making a long distance call to Asia. I had challenges due to the person picking up speaking Malay and me not being able to communicate. Right after I hung up, I immediately realised that it just wasn’t the right time to connect with who I wanted to and the universe had other plans. I was able to laugh and clear the energy instead of carrying it with me. Day 10 Today, I’m finding lots of little irritations coming up but this time, they are not bothering me as much. When I arrived at the office, I couldn’t get the computer system up and running. After several different attempts and asking for help, it still did not work. Instead on focusing on what went wrong, I focused on what I could do next. Normally, when I do the meditation, I am glad when it’s over and I stop it as soon as it’s done. Today, I was able to sit a little longer after he says “slowly, open your eyes”. In the past, I would have jumped right up to get ready for my day but not today. Days 11 and 12 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 11 I was at an X-cels seminar today. For those that don’t know, X-cels is an international coaching group that I belong to for Network Spinal Analysis (NSA) chiropractors. I had several comments from multiple people about my appearance. They were “you look really healthy” or “there’s something different about you, something good”. I attribute this to the 10 day food detox that I did (which for the most part I continued), the meditation and the consistent NSA care that I’ve been getting. So here’s another side effect I received: meditate to look better! Day 12 It was the end of a long weekend of learning from X-cels and I could feel my mind and thoughts running in overdrive. During the drive home, my head was a jumble of many voices just screaming at me. In that state, I turned to one of the tools I had: the meditation. I just finished and I noticed the change of state that took place with being present. For those of you who are still on the fence about trying meditation, what have you got to lose? Days 13 and 14 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 13 I am still digesting the information from the seminar that I went to this weekend. While I was there, I had a feeling that I had missed something. Several people experienced “ah-ha”moments and I did not. I feel as if there’s something large and right in front of me, but I can’t yet see it. In the past, this would have driven my mind crazy. It’s like there a secret and everyone else knows but you. Now, I am handling things a bit better. Instead of beating myself up about what I didn’t get. I focused on what possibilities could exist for me. Perhaps, the seminar was what I needed to create the gap, create the space for something to come. For now, I can be still and be in a space of possibility as what’s coming manifests itself. Day 14 Yay! It’s been two weeks since I’ve started this guided meditation! I’ve actually increased the amount that I’ve been doing. At first I was meditating once a day and now, I am aiming for twice. In the short time that I’ve been doing this, I’ve noticed a profound effect. Today, I observed my ability to stay focused on a task. Sometimes, I get sidetracked once I get started on something and can end up doing 4 things at the same time, which does not serve me. It seemed as if it was easier to get back on track when I was off and my decision to stay on task was much more solid than before. Day 15 I experienced a headache while I was at the grocery store and it proceeded to get worse when I got in the car to drive home. At first, I wished it would go away. I then laughed because that’s what most of the people that come in to see me say when they have a headache. I decided to try something else. I turned off the radio so I was driving in silence. I then started to take deep breaths and repeated the mantra from the meditation “I’m not the body, I’m not even the mind.” Soon after, I let out a few deep breaths and sighs and the headache slowly began to fade. Meditation is such a great tool to have! In the same instance, I would have also done SRI, however, it’s a challenge when driving! Day 16 Time to listen to my body. Today, I look the time to experience what my body needed. After I came back from a meeting at the office, I was tired and hungry. I checked in with my body to see what was really there. Was I hungry because I needed to eat, or was it because I didn’t eat enough. Was it because I was actually dehydrated and needed to drink more? Or was it cravings? Was I bored and looking to food as a substitute or was it because of stress? I did the same with rest. Did I sleep enough? Too much? Was I run down from the seminar all weekend? Each question I asked my body, I waited to see what experiences came up. This is something new that I would not have taking the time to do before. Days 17, 18 and 19 Guided Meditation Challenge Day 17 I learned to be gentler with myself today. I was giving myself a hard time today with my thoughts. Even during my evening meditation, they were saying “hurry up, you have other stuff to do” and “why can’t you quiet your mind”, etc. When I became aware of this, I was able to remember that this was the most important thing to do in this moment. Everything will work out. I was then able to finish my meditation with more grace and peace. Day 18 There were 2 points in my day which were very frustrating. The first one, involved looking for parking for 45 mins before I found a place. I have to admit that I let this situation get the best of me and ended up swearing and stomping around, similar to a little kid throwing a temper tantrum. When I came out of this state, I started to laugh because it was such a minor thing. The second point of my day, involved walking back to my car, exhausted after a long day, which was parked far away (see above). This time, similar thoughts as earlier came up. What was different was that I was able to catch myself after a few minutes, where earlier, it was a good hour before I calmed down. Hooray for improvement! Day 19 The most interesting thing occur during my morning meditation today. At some point, my Network Spinal Analysis (NSA) strategies started to kick in. My heart oscillator came up and I felt the same physical reactions as when I get entrained by my Chiropractor. My back arched and heart lifted. My thoughts slowed and then disappeared. Dr. Ghislain, have you had that experience before? Days 20 and 21 Guided Meditation Challenge Days 20 and 21Yesterday (Day 20), I decided to take the day off. This is something that I don’t usually allow myself to do. Even on my days off, I’m still doing something for the office, for personal growth, housework, etc. So I decided on a break. I slept in, spent the day reconnecting with friends, baking blueberry muffins, sitting in the sun and hanging out with a 5 year old, 2 year old and 4 month old. I even left my phone, big purse, agenda etc at home. For those that know me, that’s unheard of! Today is day 21 of the challenge! HIGH FIVE for making it this far! Thank you to all those who’ve stuck through the challenge and keep it up for those of you who are still going through it. The reason that I choose 21 days is because that’s how long it takes to start a habit. There are several people who say that change happens in an instant. I feel that it’s AWARENESS that happens in an instant and change takes work to anchor into your nervous system. Although this is my last day of writing, I have decided to continue with the meditation challenge as I have seem many benefits and I encourage you do to the same. Please continue to post as it is motivating for others and it gives you time to reflect upon your experience. Special thanks to Dr. Ghislain for your guidance.
