Download or read book Awakening from Anxiety written by Connie L. Habash and published by Mango Media Inc.. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use this spiritual guide to equip yourself with the tools needed to tear down anxiety and build inner peace. Spiritual people often find that their own expectations of living a life dedicated to a higher power makes them more susceptible to high-functioning anxiety. Sometimes, traditional relaxation techniques either do not work, don’t last, or, in some cases, actually increase their anxiety. Psychotherapist, yoga teacher, and interfaith minister Rev. Connie L. Habash has helped hundreds of spiritual people overcome fear and anxiety, regain happiness, and feel calmer. In over twenty-five years as a counselor helping spiritual people overcome anxiety, Rev. Connie has taught that it takes more than chanting mantras, stretching, or relaxation techniques to calm anxiety. It requires a transformation in perception, moment-to-moment body awareness, and a conscious response to thoughts and emotions. Awakening from Anxiety provides valuable psycho-spiritual tools to deepen spiritual awakening and calm fears:Learn what anxiety is and when it becomes a problemUnderstand the six mistakes spiritual people make that increase anxietyDiscover the seven keys to a more calm, confident, courageous lifeKnow how to break through the old patterns of stress, worry, and fear into a new perception of your true selfExplore spiritual principles and yoga philosophy to cultivate inner peace If you enjoyed Stop Anxiety from Stopping You and First, We Make the Beast Beautiful, Awakening from Anxiety will take your healing and renewal from anxiety to the next level. “A book I will recommend to many for both practical advice and spiritual insights for handling stress, worry, and anxiety.”?Becca Anderson, author of Prayers for Calm

Download or read book The Practice of Nada Yoga written by Baird Hersey and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meditation exercises for listening to the four levels of sound, to still the body, quiet the mind, open the heart, and connect with the Divine • Details the teachings on nada yoga from the Hatha Yoga Pradipika with clear, step-by-step instructions to find and hear the inner sacred sound of nada • Explains the 4 levels of sound through a series of practical meditation exercises • Includes instructions for a daily nada yoga meditation practice as well as ways to strengthen your advanced practice The ancient practice of nada yoga is not complex. It is the yoga of listening. It is a journey from the noise of the external world inward to a place of peace and bliss, to the source of the transformational power of sound--the nada. By meditating on the inner sacred sound of the nada, we can release ourselves from mind chatter and obsessive thinking. We can still the body, quiet the mind, and open the heart to create a state of mind where joy naturally arises. Sharing his experiential understanding of the classic Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Baird Hersey offers precise, step-by-step instructions on how to find the inner sound of the nada. He explains the first three levels of sound--first, how to truly hear the ordinary sounds of the world around us (vaikhari); second, how to quiet the sounds of the mind (madhyama), such as sound memories and internal dialogue; and third, how to access visual sounds (pashyanti), tapping in to our ability to see sounds and hear colors. Mastering the first three levels prepares one for the fourth level of sound (para), the heart of the practice that connects one to the inner sound of the nada. The author provides detailed exercises to guide you through each level of sound and instructions for a daily nada yoga meditation practice. Hersey explains that by focusing our minds on this internal sound we reunite our essential self with the eternal and infinite. In this re-union we find bliss in both body and mind, an uplifted spirit, and heightened states of consciousness.

Download or read book Insight into Meditation and Yoga written by Yogi Surajnath ji and published by Yogi Surajnath, Guru Budhnath ji. This book was released on 2023-03-19 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is the way, and not ways! — Learning about our consciousness in its movement as it is, that is, for learning life per se, understand this absolutely clearly. Look, you drive a car by learning driving skills, how a car works, traffic rules etc.; however, when you drive a car, if you miss attention for a second, you will have an accident. Attention cannot be learned and achieved by any gradual preparation, learning some methodology or science. Thought has no role in learning about and coming to attention. Attention can use thought and its skills in different fields, but not vice versa. Round the other way, inwardly, thought has no potential to behold the movement of feelings as they are and the tremendous speed of sensational waves and learning life beyond the known. Understand this well, and realize the futility of different ways, traditions, beliefs in the name of religion. The sense of siddhas and buddhas is the way of attention or meditation and virtue, which is not such a difficult thing to understand and to live with. Our ears listen and eyes see, and it is not that somebody else’s eyes listen, ears see. That is the part of religion. In attention, in right meditation with skill and diligence, you are open to learning the infinite depths and mysteries of life. And this text is a rare guide that shows what easy, sweet and natural way or flowering of meditation is. अभच्छ्या इमरित सबदका पाणी, षेदा षेदी रगत्र करि जाणी। नाथ कहै यह ग्यान अनूप, देषति द्रष्टि न पडिये कूप।। The water of the word is ambrosia not yet drunk, learn about pain and sorrows in the blood. Nath says, this wisdom is peerless, look, behold, don't fall in the pit. — Gorakh, Sabadi 303."
