Meditate to Create Your Reality

Take a few minutes to think about what you really want out of life. Are you happy with your current job or would you rather have a career doing something more rewarding? Think about your social life and ways to improve it, if you'd like to make more new friends or spend more quality time with your family. We all have things we 'mean to do some day' but never actually get around to, so think about your ultimate bucket list, and how satisfying it would be to do those things now. Make a list of how you want your new reality to be.

Visualization through Meditation
Glance over your list before you sit down to meditate. Don't worry about remembering everything or forgetting a few details, the most important factors will rise to the top of your consciousness. Now sit down in a calm, quite place, clear your mind, take a few deep cleansing breaths, and then picture the reality you want in your mind. Picture yourself working in your dream career, surrounded by tools of the trade. See yourself seated at the head of a table at dinner with the social circle you want: a loving spouse, loyal friends, trusting and supportive co-workers. Imagine what it looks and feels like to do one of the things from your bucket list, whether it's climbing a mountain in the Alps, learning to speak a foreign language, spending a week at a romantic destination, or skydiving out of an airplane. 

Continue to breath deeply as you take in the sights, sounds, scents, and sensations of your potential new reality. Which emotion best describes how you feel as you visualize things being as you wish they were: happy, satisfied, fulfilled? Reflect on that emotion and the visual images throughout the day, especially when discouraged by day to day stresses. When you're discouraged or feeling down, remember what you visualized, and that those things will be your reality one day.

Set an Intention Each Day
An intention can help you focus on important things and shift your focus away from things that cause stress and self-doubt. Close your eyes and mentally repeat an intention, such as 'I am a good and loving person, and good things are coming my way', or 'I am open to happiness and success'. Do this first thing in the morning, at noon, and before you go to sleep each night, and any time you need a distraction from life's bummers.
