Advice

  • Wearing white clothes and being in a white environment will enhance your experience. But the rule of white is not fundamental.
  • A good place could be a quiet room or a garden with shade. Your eyes, ears or other sensory organs must not be disturbed.
  • Do not consume alcohol for at least 8-10 hours before meditation.
  • It would be better not to eat or drink anything at least 2 hours before the meditation. The channels of the body must not be blocked in order to achieve maximum results. This is especially true for the digestive system.
  • The best times for this meditation are early in the morning or late in the evening.
  • For starters, chanting "aum" can cause dizziness. It is recommended to proceed slowly and try to learn one step at a time. This way you will prepare your body and mind for the next step.
  • It is very important to open your eyes slowly when your breathing has stabilized.
  • If you can't sit on the floor you can try sitting in bed or on a chair. The key thing is to keep your back straight.
  • Doing this type of group meditation brings more peace and harmony to all members than doing it alone.

Warnings

  • Stretch your legs and arms before getting off the ground if you have been in the same position for more than 15 minutes.
  • Open your eyes slowly after meditating or your head will spin. If you open them too quickly your head will spin even more and the beneficial effects of meditation may wear off.
