		<description>I used to meditate 2-3 times a day for 20-40 minutes, so I know this is very effective. My experiences with meditation always differs, but the main effect is a relaxed mind and body with a change in perception before and after the session. Most of my priorities usually shift before and after a session, it&#039;s like taking a short vacation and clearing the mind. You would be surprised at what relaxing the mind and disciplining your breathing can do. I&#039;ve been meditating for over 5 years and it has shown nothing but great benefits! (=

		<description>Thanks so much for this post. Relieving stress in and of itself sounds wonderful. But knowing that it also strengthens the immune system, slows aging, and improves sleep is all the incentive I need.

		<description>Hey, thanks for putting up this post!!  The techniques appear practical, useful and easy-to-do.  I may just try them myself!

		<description>Aaron,

Very useful and practical post. With the ability to quiet the mind, there is so much attention on the the peace of this NOW moment, all we really want. Not having to constantly strive, analyze or resist thoughts results in a lightness, a lessening of a perceived burden. Cool pic by the way!

One Love

		<description>The techniques I describe here are drawn from various meditation practices that have been around for thousands of years. You both (Myrko and Brian) have picked up on the accessibility of this mind relaxation. You do not need to devote 20 minutes to meditation or play any special CD for a half-hour. You can let your mind rest for a few minutes anywhere and anytime.</description>

		<description>Aaron...
Thank you, my mind has been loud and busy today, I am about to practice this and calm my mind.  As Myrko brings up, there are times almost every day that I would like to get away and meditate but I just can&#039;t.  This technique should be useful in those situations. 

Thanks...

  Brian

		<description>Aaron, thanks for this sweet guest-post. The technique seems similar to actual meditation techniques. What interests me, it seems that you could do this technique nearly anywhere. For instance even if you are in a stressful state or situation. Is this true?</description>
