"The soul loves to meditate, for in contact with Spirit
lies its greatest joy." |
The path of
meditation has many joys, but also challenges. The Meditation Doctor
offers solutions to many of the common problems experienced in meditation.
Have you ever been plagued with sleepiness or lack of concentration
or enthusiasm? Or, perhaps, you've felt that you cannot find the
time to meditate? These are just a few of the meditation "difficulties"
featured on the site. Visiting The Meditation Doctor can give you
a better understanding of the problems, and insights for working
with them in a positive manner. Many of the "Doctor's"
remedies also include techniques you can practice.
Even if you
aren't experiencing any challenges now, reading The Meditation Doctor's
cures is instructive and very inspiring. You'll also want to see
the "Preventive Medicine" section of The Meditation Doctor,
which shares many ideas for avoiding problems in the first place.

Cures
for Common Meditation Ailments
Find the problem that best describes what you are experiencing in
meditation. Each "remedy" will give you a better understanding
of the challenge, and, in some cases, techniques to practice. Most
importantly, each cure shows how you can respond to the difficulty
in a positive and expansive manner.

The Meditation Doctor is a creation of the Ananda
Meditation Support website, publisher of the free online
newsletter, The Daily Meditator. The meditation practices
we offer are based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, as
taught by his direct disciple, J. Donald Walters (Swami Kriyananda).
These teachings are nonsectarian and offer practical solutions
to the challenges of modern life. It is our hope that meditators—whatever
their tradition—will benefit from this site.
