one nostril breathing and gratitude meditation works amazing for me

[lolalola]

You can also have some nice meditation books around like Practical meditation and The way and goal of Rajyoga from 'omshantistore'.

Also just by sitting in a relaxed position. Keeping legs on some table. Chilling. In the house.

orgonite pyramids is my first choice for positive energy and meditation!

[irenejaitus]

I think you should keep the Budha sculpture in highest part of that room

[mememay]

I wish i had a meditation room... but i got 2 loud kids, a horny cat in heat that wont stop meowing and no spot to do this at. My next house will certainly have a room filled with all my crystals, plants, mats and spiritual things.

Just remember, palo santo is only supposed to be used by Indigenous people. It's a sacred ritual and over-use by non-Indigenous people has created a shortage. It's cultural appropriation.

Lol this is so bull. real sazen can be done everywhere in every position.. the fact that you need "vitamin supplements" to hava a "balanced diet" is pretty obviously ridiculous. By regular practice you should find out what you need by yourself instead of eating "salmon and brown rice" as "this is the thing you'll need for it to work" absolutely ridiculous...

[madhurid.]

She should seat facing Buddha. It's not a show piece.

[jacobmoreno]

The funny thing is that the nostril technique does work and all. But scientifically you literally can only breather from on e nostril at a time.

[Bonux]

& you should not place the Buddha statue on the floor, it is disrespectful :/

[elchacon]

1:30 Completely unnecessary. Turn off your phone. Done.
