Re: Proper Meditation.

Hi! I am 26 years old and starting meditation about 2 years ago and have never looked back since! I started reading a few books on meditation then went to my local buddhist meditation centre. I would go maybe every 6 weeks just to get feedback and get some experience. It didn't really make to much sense at the start and i was pessamistic. I found it very hard to understand the eastern views and the mind training that was involved. About 5 months later i did a weekend course with this Meditation teacher called Rob Nairn who was totally amazing! He would explain meditation practice from a more western point of view which was very clear. I think you can only learn so much out of books, but you can't beat learning from a true teacher. I would encourage anybody to do meditation, it may seem a bit strange at first but stick with it. I have changed emensly over the last couple of years more than anything i could have imagined! A lot happier Daveg!P.S Make sure you get the right teacher and information, its pretty powerful stuff! Rob Nairn has books if your keen.
