Elisabeth's reflections on the benefits of meditation

Meditation Helps Us Become More Aware Of Our Thoughts

Posted: 01 Mar 2010

Many people project outwardly a very positive countenance. They don’t voice negative thoughts when talking with others. This is a good start. However, it would be very rare for just about anybody to have a constantly positive inner dialogue.

Just by observing how the mind keeps on producing thoughts in meditation, I believe it becomes possible over time to be very conscious of the validity, or not of our thoughts. As this happens there is more discrimination in the sorts of thoughts being voiced. Awareness of our thoughts over time brings about a more positive outlook. As this happens we let go of inner doubts and self-deprecation. As we free ourselves from inner negative self talk we become compassionate not only to ourselves but to those with whom we interact.

Thank you Elisabeth for the audio meditations, at first , I thought another site for meditatons, so what's so special about this one---- but this is by far the best, better than the cds I bought. Your voice, & the simplicity of everything is terrific.

It's working for me, I feel so calm & peaceful, I'm meditating every day now, whereas before, I'd do it & then couldn't be bothered keeping it up.

Again thank you for sharing.

I'd like to thank you, Elisabeth, for your excellent audio programs. So far i have used the 5 day trial and also met my guardian angel! The meditation was so vivid, colourful and lifelike that i've sketched (and im usually a really bad artist) my guardian angel that i met. I'm so grateful fo your work- I feel that relatively soon i will find inner peace and compassion. thank you.

I'm amazed that such a simple process can be so effective - this course made me feel great!

I felt very positive and relaxed after doing the Learn How to Meditate course. I've tried meditating before but found it difficult. I like the way your course breaks it down into bite-size chunks. I feel clearer now and confidant that meditation is within my reach.
