Meditation Guidelines

Chant Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo three times before beginning the meditation. You can also choose to do a yoga kriya or some warm-ups after tuning in. 
Meditation Cycles of Transformation
Committing to a personal practice makes the meditation process of transformation and self-discovery your own. To master the effects of a meditation, practice it as a sadhana, as a daily discipline. This will develop a life-promoting habit. Habit controls us so much that it is said that we can actually change our destiny by changing our habits. We can use various cycles of the human mind to help replace unwanted patterns of behavior with new, more positive ones. We're aiming to do these meditations over 40 days - but if you find you really love it keep going! 

40 days: Change a habit.
90 days: Confirm the habit.
120 days: You are the new habit.
1,000 days: Mastery of the new habit.
Picture
Sit in a comfortable pose. Straighten the spine and make sure the lower vertebrae are locked forward. Make fists with both hands and extend the thumbs straight. Place the thumbs on the temples and find the niche where the thumbs just fit. Lock the back molars together and keep the lips closed. Vibrate the jaw muscles by alternating the pressure on the molars. A muscle will move in rhythm under the thumbs. Feel it massage the thumbs and apply a firm pressure with the hands. Close the eyes and look towards the brow point. Silently vibrate the sounds sa ta na ma at the brow. Continue for 5 - 7 minutes. With practice the time can be extended up to 31 minutes.
