Meditation can be practiced silently or through deep listening with the help of music. Music has a profound effect on the mind and the body of the listener.

Yoga and its various forms such as Kundalini Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga and Hatha Yoga have a meditation session in them. The mind is an important component in the human body. It has to be directed in order to achieve a specific objective. Thus, meditation becomes very useful. There are various kinds of meditation techniques which are very useful. There are two broad meditation techniques which carry all the types of meditation. Furthermore, there are various meditation techniques such as Breath Watching, Walking Meditation, Empty Mind Meditation, Transcendental Meditation. The different meditation techniques are discussed below:

• Concentrative Technique – Here, one is required to focus one’s thought into a particular object that is outside. The aim is to cancel out all other thoughts while concentrating on a single thought. There must be no room for any other thought or feelings. The mind must be at the moment. This meditation technique can also be done with open eyes, anywhere, like in front of the ocean or a mountain. Meditation music CDs like Kundalini Meditations Vol. 1 and Silent Moonlight Meditation will assist a person in this regard.
• Non- Concentrative Technique – It is also known as mindfulness meditation. It is about being fully aware of one’s thoughts and feelings. Focus on a particular object is not needed. One needs to be fully aware about the thoughts and happenings occurring around the body. Judging the thoughts is not required. A practitioner must only be aware of what is happening around and within himself/herself. One can consult Yoga DVDs such as Mind and Meditation (4 DVD Set) by Yogi Bhajan and Kundalini Yoga for Relaxation – DVD by Nirvair Singh Khalsa for achieving that perfect meditative state.

Meditation must be practiced under proper guidance and right kind of accessories are also important. Proper Yoga mats are one of the most important part of meditation. The human body is a storehouse of energy. The energy or the positive vibrations that are developed in the body during a meditation session run the risk of getting neutralized. Yoga mats prevent these energies from getting neutralized by creating a sort of a barrier between the earth and the body. Furthermore, these mats are also good for the spine and offer excellent grip during the entire Yoga session.
